AIR-AP1131AG-E-K9 have been converted to LW how do I convert it back to Auto?

Question

Hi,
One of my clients has a new WiFi solution and he has given me his old AIR AP1131AG-E-K9 to my LAB. The problem is that access-points have been converted to LW and the customer has thrown out the controller.
I do not know the enable password, how can these APs be reset to their default setting?

 Resetting to Default Settings Using the CLI
Caution You should never delete any of the system files prior to resetting defaults or reloading software.
If you want to reset the access point to its default settings and a static IP address, use the write erase or erase /all nvram command. If you want to erase everything including the static IP address, in addition to the above commands, use the erase and erase boot static-ipaddr static-ipmask command.
From the privileged EXEC mode, you can reset the access point/bridge configuration to factory default values using the CLI by following these steps:
Step 1 Enter erase nvram: to erase all NVRAM files including the startup configuration.
Note The erase nvram command does not erase a static IP address.
Step 2 Follow the step below to erase a static IP address and subnet mask. Otherwise, go to step 3.
a. Enter write default-config.
Step 3 Enter Y when the following CLI message displays: Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all configuration files! Continue? [confirm].
Step 4 Enter reload when the following CLI message displays: Erase of nvram: complete. This command reloads the operating system.
Step 5 Enter Y when the following CLI message displays: Proceed with reload? [confirm].
Caution Do not interrupt the boot process to avoid damaging the configuration file. Wait until the access point/bridge Install Mode LED begins to blink green before continuing with CLI configuration changes. You can also see the following CLI message when the load process has finished: Line protocal on Interface Dot11Radio0, changed state to up.
Step 6 After the access point/bridge reboots, you can reconfigure the access point by using the Web-browser interface if you previously assigned a static IP address, or the CLI if you did not.
The access point is configured with the factory default values including the IP address (set to receive an IP address using DHCP). To obtain the access point/bridge's new IP address, you can use the show interface bvi1 CLI command.
The 1300 series access point/bridge assumes a radio network role of a root access point. To configure it as a bridge, you must manually place it in install mode in order to align the antennas and establish a link. To establish the link you must have two access point/bridges configured in the install mode. In the install mode, one access point/bridge must be configured as a root bridge and the other a non-root bridge. To facilitate the configuration, an automatic option is available when the access point/bridge is in the install mode. After the wireless link is established and the bridge antennas are aligned, you take both access point/bridges out of install mode and place them on your LAN as root and non-root bridges.
Note "Resetting the Device to Default Settings" sectionIf xon/xoff flow control does not work, use no flow control.
Step 7 When connected, press enter or type en to access the command prompt. Pressing enter takes you to the user exec mode. entering en prompts you for a password, then takes you to the privileged exec mode. The default password is Cisco and is case-sensitive.
Note If xon/xoff flow control does not work, use no flow control.
Step 8 When connected, press enter or type en to access the command prompt. Pressing enter takes you to the user exec mode. Entering en prompts you for a password, then takes you to the privileged exec mode. The default password is Cisco and is case-sensitive.
Note When your configuration changes are completed, you must remove the serial cable from the access point.
