Hi all, My tape measure has done this occasionally since the day I got it. The only thing I do to clear the error is pull the tape out about 18 inches and press the release button. After the tape retracts into the housing the error always goes away. Do not hold the tape while it retracts. Just let the unit retract the tape itself. Take care, Ed

I have found that (at least with mine) that removing the battery and then reconnecting it will solve the problem for a short period of time, but replacing the battery with a new one takes care of the problem. Seems my unit doesn't like anything much more than a fully charged battery. ----- Original Message ----- From: Rinaldo To: blindhandyman@ <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, June 19, 2007 21:41 Subject: [BlindHandyMan] talking tape error Hello Friends, My talking tape has an error tape is not in.
