I get no light on the LED using any configuration. Is this normal because I cannot get the unit to work?When does it Light up?

Kindly give specifics of your situation. How have u connected it? The distance of the cable? Is it the model with or without the power adaptor to the extender?

First, the power supply to each unit needs to be plugged in.The units should light up after the HDMI and cate5 connections are made securely. The cate5 connections are sensitive. You may have to wiggle them to make connection. Make sure those cate5 cords are wired properly. Use a tester if in doubt. I had mine working for about 5 minutes. After that, they haven't worked since, even with the lights on. I'm reluctant to purchase new extenders (assuming they are the problem) because of the expense. I've called in the Geek Squad for assistance (due next week).

It should light up upon receiving and sending a signal on both ends check to make sure your cat 5 cables are not swapped make sure each cable goes to the same port on both units the the receiver is plugged and and that all sending and receing scources our powered on

Unfortunately, I think your unit, like mine is DOA. This unit charged all lights and then I took it off the charge and it did nothing. DEAD!

Start over again. Uninstall all drivers, software etc. Then restart PC. Once it has restarted attach received to another usb port. Not the one u have currently plugged it in. If the received still does not show an LED. U need to have it replaced.

I believe you have a defective light. I love mine. It only has on and off features.

Mine also does not seem to have a led light. It transfers files fine thought. I miss the light.

Do you have input and output connected. If yes then it should come on. I've owned two of these and never had any issues. Unit may be diffective if it still doesn't work with both connections engaged. Let me know if that works for you. Peace

mine won't even turn on. I don't know if the indicator light is just weak or what but right now its doa. and what do you do when the battery runs out?

That's what I wondered too, if it needed to "warm up" first, or be in an extra-dark room. You may have a faulty one too like me. I had to tap on it near the bottom & turn it upside down & hold it it at an angle to get it to light up-not what you should do to make it work! Email Amazon & they'll fwd it to Scientifics & they should email you back w/phone #. I called them today & they said Fedex would pick it up next day & send me another one. So hope next one works! Good luck with yours! :)

Maybe they updated the LED to green, but my has a red LED and it works just fine. You should email tell and ask them what is going with your unit.

I would suggest repositioning it in the room, to make sure moving shadows or some other change in light level isn't causing the unit to think it's becoming dark and changing to night mode. Call V-tech support and see what they say, otherwise, yes, I'd agree the unit is defective.

I actually did replace one of mine with an LED just to test it out and almost no light comes out of it. The LED lights just don't seem to put out enough light. :( I would love to find some LEDs that do though considering I am running like 15 of these all night long.

mine had an issue. I changed the battery and it still didnt work right. I called the manufacturer and they sent me a new LED module no questions asked.

Have you installed the latest firmware? It helped with various issues on my set. Instructions and download located here. http://westinghousedigital.com/products/led/32-40/ld325/

Why would you think it had LED Lights? There is no power to the switch for such a thing. Does it work? Mine works just fine, it is just a simple switch ;-)

Mine does the same thing and it works perfectly - my suggestion is don't worry about the lights - also, sometimes you have to give the system time to change so don't be in a big rush - good luck, I really like it.

When the unit doesn't light up, the problem is usually due to a bad driver, which may be replaced. If the LEDs happen to fail, then the entire unit would need to be replaced.
