A short on pair two can take down four or eight stations on a card.  
Pull the connector, use an adapter that brings out pair 1/2 out to an rj 
14 to test with one phone.

Also, you can swap the upper card and lower card to verify that a card 
is at fault.  Also, power off the system for a few minutes, then back 
on, we have had cards do a cmos "lockup" that will clear.  Also some 
early cards had a design problem, that with time, will no longer support 
all eight dpits connected.

And finally, it's possible to pop a card if someone connects a station 
port to a pc network card for period of time,  the pulse transformer for 
that port will overheat and short.  ("I thought it was a modem in the 
pc")   A nic card resistance will not trip the protection circuit.

some ideas,  good luck,  there are cards available from folks on the group.
