Music on Hold stopped working after storm and trunk card replacement
Music on Hold stopped working after storm and trunk card replacement
(OP)
The office who's Nortel Mics system I service had a major storm come through. It took out several pieces of equipment even though everything had surge protection. It killed lines on both trunk cards. I replaced both and the phones are fine now. The MOH still doesn't work. There originally wasn't sound coming from the source. We worked with that vendor and got it to output sound. They have a built in speaker to test sound(and that works) and I used my wand to verify sound going into the Amphenol connation. If I do a f86 I can BARELY hear the the MOH if I turn the volume to max. I verified that call handling - on hold: is set to music. I'm not sure what else I can try. Could the MOH port just be blown? any way to fix that with out a new system? Thanks
Thanks for any help.

Having said that, I recall that your only other options were tones?.
You could check the Amphenol connectors are fully seated OK. I've known the CICS to give me issues with a loose circuit board that houses the krone strips.

I tried flipping the pair but still no luck ); thanks.

-Test with a toner on the MOH port and test both Background Music and Music on Hold.
-Make sure the MOH output on the source is set to 600ohms if it has.
None repairable but insurance might cover that.

I doubt any one has any more ideas here but figured I'd see if any one had some. My 2 theories at this point is I have a 2nd system with a blown MOH port or that the wiring some how got burnt up.
My next steps unless someone has a better idea is buy or make an amphenol break out box and test that way. might have to replace the amphenol run which would be a huge pain. Thanks.

Forget that, use your test set right on the pair, you maybe getting music only on a half a pair.
Again:
-Test with a toner on the MOH port and test both Background Music and Music on Hold.
Also try another AMP cable.
To test the amp cable put a toner on the raw/terminated end and problem the 2 pins carefully to make sure each are loud and clear.
