BT Diverse 6150 Base Station reset?

moosey — Thu, 27 Oct 2022 15:03:39 GMT

Hello All,

Is there a way to do a reset to factory settings for the BT Diverse 6150 base station?

We recently had some power fluctuations to our home and a few items of other electronic equipment got upset, and a couple of fuses blown. The BT Diverse 6150 continues to work, except for the answerphone function. There is no outgoing message and nothing gets recorded. It is not possible to record a new outgoing message either. The last hope is a master reset if that is possible.

Thanks!

Sorry if this has been posted in the wrong place, but I cannot find a way to move or delete this message. If one of the moderators could move it to a more appropriate board it would be appreciated.

This is the procedure for the 6250, which is very similar:

PRESS MENU ONCE
Then type in *0#0*0# (STAR,0,HASH,0,STAR,0,HASH)
PLEASE NOTE THIS WILL NOT BE DISPLAYED ON THE SCREEN
PRESS BACK AND THEN MENU
DISPLAY WILL SHOW SUPPORT
PRESS OK
SCROLL DOWN TO RESET
PRESS OK
THE DISPLAY WILL SHOW RESET TOTAL
PRESS OK
SCROLL DOWN TO BASE STATION
PRESS OK
THE DISPLAY WILL SHOW ? RESET BS TOTAL
PRESS YES

Then take the batteries out to remove the service mode selection from the menu. If the reset doesn't work then follow the instructions and select the Reset to Default. Resetting to factory settings will erase all entered details from the phone.

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work on the 6150. I've followed the first few steps but the SUPPORT menu does not appear. I have tried this several times, but no go. Thanks for the ideas to try though.
