Troubleshooting

PROBLEM

POSSIBLE CAUSE(S)

SOLUTION(S)

Total system failure.

Blown fuse.

Check power supply and connections to modules.

• 

Single Switch Operation on handset is 
ok, but multiple switch operation fails or 
causes system shutdown.

• 

Light bar control failure.

Communications fault.

• 

Check data link connections are secure.

• 

Check inputs and cable ends are clean.

Low Voltage.

Check battery voltage has not dropped below 12V

• 

Red LED illuminated on Output/Receiver 
module.

• 

When selecting more than one switch 
function, some lights are on, others are 
not.

• 

Light operation appears to be ‘haywire’

Excessive current 
draw on one or more 
channels (maximum 
working current is 

0.5amps (500mA) per 
channel).

To locate the faulty channel, operate each switch 
individually until the Red LED illuminates.
• 

Check for short circuit in wiring.

• 

Check for faulty equipment.

If problem still persists, replace Output/Receiver 
Unit.

No output from Output/Receiver. ‘Data OK’ 
LED is not flashing.

Communication fault.

Check data link connections are secure. Check 
fuse. Check voltage. Check switch panel is plugged 
in. Is the switch panel damaged or otherwise non 
functional?

High pitch ‘whistle’ from the speaker on PA 

operation.

Volume set too high.

Turn the volume down on the keypad.

Keypad and speaker 
too close together.

Increase the physical separation between the 
keypad and the speaker.

The Keypad LED is flashing.

Low Voltage.

Check that the voltage is healthy.
For 12V system = >12V

The Keypad LED is permanently on and the 
system is not functioning.

Internal eprom fault.

Replace keypad.

One or more switches will not remain on

Switches are set for 
momentary operation.

Reset the switches to latching operation.

Pressing one switch ‘On’ turns the previous 
one ‘Off’.

Switches are set to ‘self-

cancelling’. 

Reset the switches.

When selecting ‘360’ the light bar is not 

functioning.

Switches are incorrectly 
set.

For the ‘360’ to function correctly when connected 

to a Woodway light bar only SW1 can be used as 

360 and the ‘Special Strobe Function’ must be set.

Switch panel cannot be programmed.

Keypad has lockout still 
enabled.

Disable lockout.

When activating external 999, the program 

activates then immediately goes to arrival 

mode. When 999 is held, a long tone is heard

The highways agency 
mode needs turning 

off.

Toggle highways mode to off.
