My 8500 is messing up. Every time I turn it on, I get the K band alert. It stays at 2/3 to 3/4 signal strength all the time. I have done the reset...no luck. I checked the manual and this issue is not listed in the 'troubleshooting' section.

Has anyone else had this happen? What did you do?

My unit is more than a year old, so I think it's out of warranty.

 

Well, now it's happening about 3/4 of the time which is better, but I'm srill pi$$ed.

The Escort website was no help. There's no 'tech' section on it.....

No one has experienced this?

 

funny. i just came here to complain about mine too. my laser keeps going off whenever i step on the gas. what the hell?

 

well guys..either

1) send it in for repair...

or

2) sell it.

no way to reset it.

 

i left mine unplugged for 1/2 the day. remounted it, plugged it back in, and it's working fine.

 

I'll try that......
