Hey all-
I've had this payphone in my gameroom for just about ten years...the other day it was "dead" I opened it up and found that the 3.6 volt lithium battery and the rechargeable battery were dead. I replaced the batteries and now the phone has some life....I've gotten it to work somewhat, but it is now asking for money to make a phone call. Other times it appears to be dead...But if play with the program button it comes back. I remember when I first got this phone, I had programmed it myself via the program switch and the number keypad. I can't remember or find the instructions I had for it. I googled for them, and I came up empty handed. My phone logic board looks like this:
http://www.payphone.com/Protel-2000-Board.html
Anybody know how to program this board....I see on web that a company will program it for $25.00. I don't know if the phone board works at this point, and it seems like a rip-off to pay someone to punch a few numbers into it.
Any help is much appreciated
