Hi Patrice!

Does that mean that taking the battery out or replacing the battery is kind of a reset? I allready expectedthat I would have to reprogram all sets after a replacemtn... but I would be happy if it works at all after that ;-)

Thanks!
Hauke

  Hi, 
  yes the Leds should light up, but I'm not sure ...
  sometimes to change the battery is just initialising all the brain , & it works great after ...
  Please keep in ind that teh sDS7 is certainly the most esoteric of all other Simmons models ... 
  Good luck too !
  Patrice.

    Hi Jym!

    I have a "dead" SDS7 too... bought it like that. Cosmetically it is almost mint, but the triggers don't work, no signal at all. How does it look when the battery is dead? Same symptom? Could you please describe it? Thank you!!!
    Do the LEDs/lights in the module light up when you hit a pad? Thats what my SDS7 refuses to do :-(

    Good luck with yours!
    Hauke

      I have a mint-condition SDS-7 kit, identical in setup to my SDX kit. I
      didn't use it for several years and the battery went dead. It always
      worked perfectly before that. Could it be resurrected merely with a
      replacement battery? When Bill B's American engineer refurbed my SDX,
      he thought I might need some sort of memory card to rejuvenate the
      SDS-7. Anbody know about this? Help!
