Default BT 706 won't hang up after conversion

Hi Folks,

I've fitted a conversion kit to a type 706 phone that I found when clearing out my Mum's house. Still brand new and in the box - even the paper insert for the dial has never been fitted.

I've checked though the instructions for the kit several times and as far as I can tell its all connected correctly - photo attached.

Dialing out with it works fine - but it doesn't seem to hang up properly; If I try to call our number while its plugged in I get an engaged tone, and picking up the headset and holding the cradle buttons down I can still hear a faint dial tone.

I read somewhere that the microphone might be part of the problem - and If I disconnect either of T3 or T10 (which I think are the microphone) then I can call it and it rings fine, but then it carries on ringing even if I pick it up.

Can someone offer some tips on what I should try next please ?

Thanks
Phil
