I have a DT82E that will not respond to a hard reset by pushing the reset button or a safe mode reset using the same reset button. The display is not showing any text. The sample and Data lights are blinking at the apparent same time 3 or for times a second and the power light is blinking at about the same rate but out of sync with the others.

I have attempt both in case there is something wrong with the program or the IP settings.

I am now replacing the battery.

Is this a good possibility or do you have others to suggest?

I tried a different battery and got the same results. However, I did notice that the Attn light was blinking weakly (or quickly) as well and this was repeated upon replacing with the original battery.

Hi nseii,

Please try to enter safe mode by performing a triple push.
It will stop any program from running (blinking of sample/ disk LED).

Best regards,
Rudy Gunawan
