Use this reference to troubleshoot the Samsung Medison C2-5/60BD: identify the fault from what you see, judge whether it is typically repairable, and prepare the details needed for a quote.

In service the C2-5/60BD is most often found on Medison MySono 201. Console-side settings and module revisions still vary, so the exact system build is part of any assessment.
Curved arrays like the C2-5/60BD see heavy abdominal duty, and the curved lens face takes the brunt of it – delamination and membrane wear typically show up before element failures do.
Common failure modes for the C2-5/60BD
Match what you are seeing against the table below. The right-hand column reflects how faults of this kind typically assess – the actual verdict always depends on the individual probe.
| What you see | Likely cause | Typically repairable? |
|---|---|---|
| Vertical shadowing or missing scan lines on screen | Failed transducer elements or a broken conductor in the cable | Case by case |
| Split seams or impact marks on the probe body | Impact damage; housing can usually be replaced or resealed | Usually repairable |
| Grainy, low-detail image even after presets are checked | A worn lens surface or elements beginning to degrade | Case by case |
| Latch or locking hardware damaged on the connector shell | Mechanical damage to the connector shell | Usually repairable |
| Visible nicks, grooves or staining on the lens surface | Wear from use, or chemical attack from disinfectants | Usually repairable |
| Bubbles or lifting at the lens face | The lens separating from the acoustic stack underneath | Usually repairable |
| Cable jacket cracked, wrinkled or discolored | Jacket wear; conductors may still be intact underneath | Usually repairable |
Check these before you ship the probe
- Inspect the lens face under good light for cuts, bubbles, lifting edges or discoloration.
- Flex the cable gently along its length while imaging – intermittent dropout points to broken conductors.
- Examine the connector for bent or corroded pins, cracks and a working locking mechanism.
- Compare penetration and uniformity against a known-good probe on the same preset.
- Run the system’s built-in probe test or element check if your console provides one.
Repair, exchange or replace — which applies to your C2-5/60BD
Repair suits the C2-5/60BD when damage is mechanical or confined – lens membrane, strain relief, cable jacket, connector hardware. Once element dropout spreads across large sections of the array, repair cost climbs toward replacement value and stops making sense. If uptime is critical, ask about exchange options while your probe is assessed.
What we need to quote your C2-5/60BD repair
- A clear photo of the complete manufacturer and model label on the probe
- A description of the fault: what you see on screen and when it started
- The ultrasound system (console) the probe is used with
- Screenshots or photos of the image problem, if the fault is visual
- Photos of any physical damage – lens, housing, cable or connector
