i have a line on my home telephone screen and cant read the contact list can this be fixed?
Hi, I don’t know the phone but you could try removing the battery from the phone and leaving it out for about 5 minutes and then reinsert it and check the display to see if the line has gone. It could have appeared due to a “glitch” occurring and the battery is maintaining it being shown I’m not sure with your phone make and model, if you may have to re-register the phone with the base station and whether or not you may have lost any stored info in the phone if you try this. If this doesn’t work then most probably there is a problem with the LCD display unit. You could open the phone and check for loose solder connections from the board to the LCD display unit but it also may be in the LCD display unit itself. Getting a replacement display might be difficult. If you want to try replacing the display unit, look for a part number printed on the back of the display itself and then search online using the part number to see if there are any suppliers. An alternative option is to get a replacement phone - example only. A replacement LCD display, if you can find one would probably cost the same if not more than the replacement phone shown above. Unfortunately these types of phones are not really designed to be repaired as usually the way to get replacement parts for most portable landline telephones is to try and find a “faulty donor phone” online i.e. advertised as ‘faulty good for parts” at a reasonable or better still a low price and hope that the part that you want from it is still working.
