[Eric Lemmon]

Doug,

The "FAIL 001" message is caused by the transmit VCO going out of lock.  Go
here for the fix:

Subject: [Motorola] Spectra "Fail 001" Help Please

Greetings All,

I have a problem and need some advice.

I installed a UHF high power Spectra in my van yesterday.  Initially the 
radio worked fine (receive and transmit)for about 30 minutes or so.  About
an 
hour later I went out to the store and when I turned the radio on it would 
receive OK but would not transmit.  It beeps when you transmit and displays 
the "Fail 001" code. 

I tried to reprogram the code plug with the origional data and the radio
took 
the programming OK but still showing the error code.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance,

Doug 
Effort, PA
