I have a KX-TD308 that I could use for a testbed for antique phones. I'm more familiar witht he TA series. I don't have the password, which was apparently changed from default. The reset button does not get me back to default. I see no hidden hard reset button, although there is a mysterious jumer by the coin battery.
Is there some way to do a hard reset on the PBX, to clear all programming? Or possibly is the reset button just defective? TIA. -- Alan

According to the manual:
1. Flip the switch on the KSU from "SET" to "PROGRAM"
2. Dial 99 on the first extension - "ALL CLEAR?" will be displayed
3. Press "STORE" to clear system

EDIT: Sorry, that was for the KXT308. I'm not seeing the method if you don't have the programming password for a KXTD308... I'm kind of thinking a factory reset involved connecting to the serial port and running some commands from there. However, I might be thinking of the voicemail!

From the KX-TA308 manual regarding reset button:

Pressing the reset button causes the following:
1. Camp-on is cleared
2. Calls on Hold are terminated
3. Calls on Exclusive Hold are terminated
4. Calls in progress are terminated
5. Call Park is cleared.

(and most important in this case)

All other data stored in memory is not cleared.

Given this information, I suspect you are on to something by removing the battery

Program 900 "System Data Clear" should wipe it out.


Instructions are just one man's opinion on paper

However, it doesn't sound like he's got the password so probably no way to get to program 900...
