BCD325P2 KEYPAD WEAR

Do new BCD325P2 scanners have keypads that last, or do they still fade after a year or so of use?

It would have been nice had Uniden retained the keypad quality of the 396xt. I have had mine for ten years and it has not faded at all. My two 325P2s' have faded to some degree on the keypad.

Mine are all but wiped out. I am waiting for the backlog at Uniden repair to clear before I send mine back to have the keypad replaced and an issue with the display looked at. I bought a case for the 325 and that will slow down the rubbing off from what remains.

Sheesh... Yeah, these keypads are a fail.
Bearcat Scanner has them. Less than 5 minute job to replace 'em.
I ordered a few a while back on ebay, don't see the link anymore

FYI if anyone is looking for a replacement keypad for the Uniden 325P2 (Uniden part #LKR102616EZ), both Bearcat Scanner (as mentioned in post #4 above) and CB World show the keypad as being "In stock" with a price of $9.95 at both websites. The Uniden.com website has a price of $8.99 but lists the 325P2 keypad as "Sold out."

If it's anything like the 436, it's easy to change... It's just a molded membrane...
I wouldn't send that to Uniden for repair...
Order the part from... As trp2525 stated above... Do it yourself and save alot of buckage...

 

[RandyKuff]

You can see the membrane here on the 436... All the electronics stays mounted to the back cover....
On the 436 just six screws to split the case apart... I would think it to be the same with the 325...

Anyone know it a keypad for a BC125ATis any better? It looks like It would fit a BCD325P2.

 

[RandyKuff]

Probably pretty much the same thing...
They all appear to be the same type of membrane with the functions silk screened on...

My 436 (When I had it) was showing signs of wear...

Per this post by UPMan from 11-12-2018, the Uniden part number for the BC125AT keypad is LKR102616ZZ and you have to call the order in to the Uniden Parts Department. Their phone number is 1-800-297-1023.

Note that the Uniden part number for the 325P2 keypad ends in EZ while the Uniden part number for the 125AT keypad (as supplied by UPMan) ends in ZZ.
