<p>Can you please confirms that the cable interface is working? (it
looks to me as a interface problem)<br>
</p>
<p>Also, your radios has the LCD backlight on?</p>
<p>There is a know issue with this radios about this: usually the
kenwood interface for this radios take power from the radio not
from the PC, and the power is taken from the same rail the LCD
leds are powered. <br>
</p>
<p>For some reason with time (or a mic cable short) a medium power
resistor burn out in the main board and get the front panel
without +12V, that not a problem to the normal operation as it
works on +5v, but the backlight gone off and the programmer has no
power to feed from and always fails to operate.</p>
<p>Can you check that please?<br>
