Clearly a problem. Have disconnected power and plugged back in but no joy. I have a dial tone and if I enter the number manually then it will make the call.

All and any suggestions / tips will be appreciated.

Can I ask ..

I have a Panasonic KX-NCP500. It has a 16 slot card for 16 x KX-DT333 system phones and 16 standard line telephones. Does anyone know the latest system phone handsets that will be compatible with the KX-NCP500 ideally with 24 programmable keys or more ?

With thanks in anticipation

ATT CL4940: will not hang up

Tue, 21 Oct 2025 07:09:04 -0700

The line disconnect micro switch checks ok but the phone will not hang up from the land line, it does however show normal display responses to the hang up switch. It will just not disconnect from the land line.

When I replace the handset in the cradle the conversation will not disconnect. If I disconnect the landline from the phone the conversation will disconnect. If I reconnect the landline with the phone hung up I can hear a dial tone and then after a while a continually busy signal . Calling my landline with the cl4949 connected produces a busy signal . Is there a switching transistor in the circuit of the 4940 that is leaking?

I can use the phone as long as I physically remove the landline to hang up. The landline must remain disconnected or the line will lock up and no other phone in my home will work. With the 4940 disconnect from the landline all my other phones work ok.

Thanks,

Robert

Speaker button checks Ok with an ohmmeter. This problem with the line control started after an electrical storm. Does anyone have an electrical diagram?
