I have a 7208 set that works just fine except the display presents random asci characterts.

Is the set toast?

Thanks
Randy
 
Sounds like the phone is going bad to me. Swap phone with another location for testing purposes.

Good Luck!!
 
Usually the first thing to go on these phones is the display or the speakerphone - I would change the phone out

Good Luck

Sounds like just the display has gone bad. They are replaceable if it's one with a ribbon cable. The newer displays that are attached directly to the flex circuit board are hard to find if it's this type. Brian Cox

Thanks for the advice. It's definitely the phone. Are they worth fixing? If so how & how much?

Thanks
 
Thanks Brian. The price looks attractive but I'm up in CANADA so once you add shipping & the dollar dif it's not worth the hassle.

Thanks for you help all the same.

I just learned of a place here in Montreal servicing norstar sets.... I can get the information for you if you need.
I'm about to send 4-5 phones, they have a flat fee from what I heard of.
