How do I default or reset a password if I don't know what it is? It was changed several months ago, but is now not accepting the changed password. I am trying to access remotely.
shorting the cap can cause problems with the rad later. there are several threads that give several different methods of reseting the rad password (do a keyword search and look at them before you try the cap method) gl

There are two different suggestion in the FAQ forum, but am I hitting the right key? Is the display key the keys immedietly below the display? I'm trying it on a RAD I have here in my office but can't get it to work. When you're done reseting I'm also guessing that the RAD will ask you for a password first right?
I've reviewed both FAQs on resetting the RAD and I have instructions that are similar but a bit differnt from the ones listed in this forum. I've used the instructions below on several occations and I know that this method works! Give this a try before you do the shorting!!
RESETTING RAD
Here are instructions for resetting a Password on a RAD that you cannot access:
Set System Date to 09/21/99
Dial Feature 9**
Press the left soft key 9 times
Press the center soft key 5 times
Press the right soft key 7 times
Press HOLD
Dial 2
Dial 1
Give RAD a few minutes to reset then you may go in using Feature 9** and set
a new password.
You may reset the date after RAD resets.
Please let everyone know if this works for you and I will add this to the FAQ section is it's successful for you!
Didn't work, when I dial f** by the time I get to the right soft key the date comes back up on the display? And I'm doing this pretty quickly. This is of course a M7410 and I'm doing this while the phone is on hook idle.
When I opened up the RAD I have here there in a couple of capacitors does anyone know exactly which one I have to short out? Also any additional ideas before I short the cap. is welcome.
On a fastRad the mem cap is round black and standing up on end. The one I am looking at has GC 5.5V1.0F on it.I just take a bare wire hold it on each side for about a minute then check with meter. I never had it damage one but jerryreeve might have a point.
