Yet another Pro-96 issue

[ff168577]

So I dropped my Pro-96 last evening about 2 1/2 feet to an asphault ground. I shut the scanner off, and it turned it back on. All the channels re-appeared, and but no audio. I removed the batteries, and turned the scanner back on, but now I have no screen, or obviously audio. Anyone have any idea's what the issue maybe. Thank you in advance for your replies.

Sounds like your in for a repair,Knocked some parts loose..There is a rubber contact pad behind the display that sits between the screen and main board..Probably knocked it outta place..As for no sound may have jarred the ex headphone jack loose..Or damaged the speaker (Unlikely)..

Thank you for the reply. Is it wiser to purchase a new scanner, or get this one fixed?

I would get it repaired. Buying a new one would cost more verse getting it repaired. As the previous poster said you may have knocked a couple of things loose which can be fixed.

Ok, I sent my scanner to the local radio repair show, and they are unable to find the issue or issue's. They are reporting it has power, but no screen, no audio, no function. Anyone have any other guess's on the issue?

Take it to a Radio Shack and have them send it in. They know the radio and will have the parts to fix it.
