ONT Backup Battery Replacement

I'm attempting to replace my ONT battery to make the beeping stop.  I attempted to do it both here and through my set, but in both cases I get a message that says "this service is currently not working.  Try again later."  It's now been 10 days.  I give up.  My current battery model # is PX12072.  However, when I search this site it apparently does not exist.  The only one I can find is a GT-12080-HG (and you have to zoom in on the photo to see the model number, as no technical specs are provided).  Is this the appropriate replacement for my unit?

The GT12080-HG is the original battery.  The PX12072 is a substitute.  Either will work, though the GT12080-HG has a slightly higher Ah. (8Ah vs 7Ah)   The main difference is cost.

  • Backup battery replacement specifications

    I have scanned MULTIPLE pdf manuals on replacing the FLAT backup battery in the 17" iMac G5 with the ambient light sensor AND NOWHERE DOES IT TELL YOU WHAT KIND, TYPE, SPECS, ETC. It just says replace it with the new one.. well duh!
    There was no battery under the little clip for me to compare it to otherwise I wouldn't have a problem. In fact, I don't understand how the machine was working before since it had been working perfectly fine a couple days ago. I cracked open the case to replace/upgrade the hard drive and when I put back together unit will not boot. Cracked open the back and that was when I noticed the little flat battery compartment was empty???????????
    I have replaced those little 3.6v purple backup batteries for 20 years. Why didn't they just stick with SAME BATTERY they have used for over 20 years

    The battery is a CR2032 3 volt lithium button battery that you can find for about five dollars in any Radio Shack.

  • Don't pay double for FIOS ONT backup battery

    My ONT started beeping after a recent power outage and I saw the red "Replace battery" light was on.  Verizon wants you to buy the replacement battery for $34.99 from their supplier
    https://teleproducts.verizon.com/fios/index.cfm/eh/DisplayProducts?LOBCode=C&PromoTCode=A0760&PromoS...
    but the same battery is avaialble for $17.95 at Amazon
    http://www.amazon.com/Battery-for-PX12072-NON-OEM-Replacement/dp/B003LNIEIS/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?...

    (Slaps forhead - why didn't I think of that?)
    I unplugged  the BBU and dicsonnected the battery - waited 2 minutes - plugged everything back in and Voila!  No more red light on the BBU. 
    But at least I know where to get a repalcement battery if/when I need one.
    I wonder if that BBU red light goes on whenever there is a real power outage that forces the BBU to take over.  The one I had lasted only about 10 seconds.  I guess I could find out by flipping the the appropriate circuit breaker, but I'm probably not going to do that.

  • How do I open the door to my Optical Network Terminal (ONT) to replace the backup battery

    I have an ONT that looks like this: http://www.verizon.com/cs/groups/public/documents/adacct/bbux400-open.jpg How do I open the door to it to replace the battery? Thanks Ben
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    My ONT BBU (Battery Backup Unit) looks just like yours.  The door is where it says ONT 314 and Verizon.
    On mine, I can just grip the edge of the lower right and corner of the door, under the lights and buttons where it says SOHO, and pull the door open.
    That exposes the battery.

  • Replace Backup Battery

    My installer put the backup battery in the attic.  I'm disabled so I don't stand a prayer of getting up there to replace the battery.  What do I do when it's time to replace the battery?  How do I know the battery needs changing?  What's the average before a battery needs to be change?

    Mine began beeping about a week ago.  I could find nowhere on the general website that addressed this problem--even in the automated help (i always got remote control battery replacement...not helpful).  Nor was i initially able to get real, live tech support.  This morning i got through and was advised consistent with this string: ie verizon warantees the back-up battery for one year only; after that it is your problem.  the website is: 
                                                             fios.asurion.com
    please note: there is no www. before the address.
    there are only three tabs on the website: home; order; log-in.
    the battery at this time costs just under $50.00 (not sure what shipping is).  
    I am pleased with Fios (though the Verizon customer support website could use some help), but charging you 50 bucks to replace the battery is something not even the cable company would do.
    note also: the back-up battery powers only your phone service in the event of a power outage (according to tech support; no internet, no tv).  So...i thought (and was advised by tech support) i could just take out the battery to get rid of the beeping...didn't work.
    hope this helps you avoid what it took me to figure out.

  • Replacement of backup battery

    Where can I purchase a backup battery? Can I install this myself? If not, where should I go for the installation?

    Hello,
    Which model of T-series ThinkPad do you have?  Knowing that may be helpful in determining which type of battery your notebook computer has and the associated replacement steps for it.

  • IPhone 5 battery replaced by Apple, now constantly rebooting

    Hello,
    Yesterday, my wife and I both had our batteries replaced by Apple as part of the battery replacement program.  Mine is working fine, but my wife's is not.  When we got home, the battery was at 22% (understandable since it had just been replaced with a new one).  I plugged it to charge.  After about 4 hours, I checked it, and it was still at 22%!  I did a hard reset and the phone came back up at 100%, so I figured it was a glitch.  Well, this morning it was still at 100% after not being plugged in since yesterday, so I did another hard reset.  Now, the iPhone will reboot itself every 3-4 minutes.
    I have tried restoring the phone as a new device.  (I can't restore a backup since it will reboot before completing).
    Strange thing,...it doesn't seem to reboot unless I am using the iPhone, or it is plugged in trying to sync.  If I let it just sit on the table with the screen off, it won't reboot.
    I have an appointment at an Apple store tomorrow, but I am afraid since it is out of warranty, they won't help me....even though it was working fine before they replaced the battery (other than the fact the battery died after about 8 hours).
    Any thoughts out there?
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Check out my solution. This worked for me after having the battery replaced for my iPhone 5 at the Genius Bar. Not sure if it'll fix the 100% issue though. Tried resetting network settings like above. I'll have to see and wait. Just had my battery replaced yesterday.

  • Backup Battery

    I have an iMac G3 CRT, indigo. It won't hold date & time anymore. The help menu tells me I may need to replace the backup battery but I can't find any info on where it is or how to accesss it. Anybody got info??

    Welcome Dale!
    This is the battery as sold online:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/BAA36VPRAM/
    Radio Shack stores cary the correct battery as part number 23-026, but will charge you three times the online price (the example I posted is typical).
    If you open the RAM installation door on the bottom of the case, you can see the PRAM battery. A non-metallic grasping tool like plastic forceps makes replacing the battery easier. Make sure to note the polarity of the old battery and duplicate it when installing the new one.
    Most PRAM batteries last a long time, but start to die quickly when the computer is off wall power. Best practice is to leave Macs plugged into the wall socket even if they are not getting much use. If you must unplug one for an extended period of time, remove the battery and tape it to the case.

  • Ipod battery replacement worries

    I am having my old battery replaced at an apple store. What are the chances that I will lose my songs??? Appreciate a reply!!! Thank you. Jeff

    Are the really replacing the battery in your iPod?
    The usually replace your iPod with a refurbished one.
    This
    Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
    says
    Will the data on my iPod be preserved?
    No, you will receive a replacement iPod that will not contain any of your data and songs. Before obtaining service, it is important to back up your data. Apple is not responsible for the loss of information while servicing your iPod and does not offer any data transfer service.
    In any event I would backup the iPod and all media on the iPod

  • Won't charge after ipod battery replacement

    Hi,
    I hope you can help me.
    Battery replacements for iPod generation 1 (5 GB) and iPod Photo generation 4(?) (60 GB) did not work:
    I bought replacement batteries from OWC (MacSales.com). Below is the invoice data from OWC for theses batteries. Since the swapping didn't work the first time, they sent me new batteries for free, but to no avail.
    NWTBIPOD1350MPH
    Apple iPod Photo 1350mAh High-Cap Battery
    S/N: 5818602, replacement for S/N: 5554860
    NWTBIPOD2200M12
    Apple iPod 1G/2G 2200mAh High-Cap Battery
    S/N: 3761061, replacement for S/N: 3761112
    Neither the iPod Photo nor the iPod 1G would work after installing new batteries. The batteries were replaced by OWC, but even a new install with the new replacement batteries did not work. Both iPods worked fine after each installment with the batteries as long as there were some power left in the new batteries. As I recall, that would be about 2 hours. After the first complete charge of the batteries, the iPods seemed to work as expected, but after the second charge they both appeared completely dead. The charging was done with the chargers that came with the iPods. This is very odd, and it is hard to tell what the problem may be. I find it strange that this happens to both the 1. and 4. generation of iPods, as they are quite different, and so are the batteries, and the same thing happened after trying to swap batteries twice on both units.
    Do you have any ideas as to what it may be that causes this?
    If you know how I can get the iPods to work with the new batteries I would appreciate it. It is no option to buy new iPods. Economy doesn't permit it for the moment.
    Best regards from
    Guttorm Kittelsen
    PS. The iPod 1 (5Gb) was bought at Office Line Mac & Carry (now Humac) in Oslo
            The iPod Photo 4 G (60Gb) was bought at the Apple store. (not the App Store)

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. I suspect a hardware problem  due to the hotness. If iTunes can't see the iPod then uor only hope if to contact a data recovery company for getting data off the iPod. If you have an iPod backup you can restore another iPod, iPhone or iPad from the backup to get the data that was in the backup

  • Battery Replacement Questons - Need answers please!

    Hey everyone! So, Im going to the USA next wednesday and I was wondering - I am taking my iPod touch in this week (maybe) for a battery replacement, how long will it take? Will I get it back in time for my trip? or Will they give me a new one because my 1-year warrenty is not over?

    Battery replacement for iOS devices actually means they swap your device with a factory refurbished one (new screen, new battery).  They take your old device in exchange.  If not covered under warranty, the price is $79.
    Note that you have to actualy surrender your old device, so make sure you have a backup made before you take it in.  The replacement will be as new out of the box, so it will have none of your content on it (that is up to you to restore from your backup).

  • Battery replacement process.  What happens to paid software update?

    I have an appointment at my local apple store this afternoon to look at my battery. I think it has seriously started to drain and it's still under the 1 year warranty.
    My understanding is that they actually send you a refurbished ipod and not the one you necessarily bring in for battery replacement. I've started to "wipe" my ipod touch of info but I'm wondering what happens to the ipod touch software update that I had to pay to receive...that update from a while back.
    Will I have any problems? Does that reside on the mac and follow any ipod touch i plug in?
    Thx.

    It resides on your Mac, if you get a replacement when you set it up and load from your backup on your computer.

  • What happens when you take your iPod into the apple store for battery replacement?

    I am taking mine in tomorrow. How do they decide if your battery is bad enough to get the iPod/battery replaced? What do they do with your iPod? Do they mess with the apps and data?? Do they search your history to see what you've done on it? HELP!

    By reading the following, Apple exchanges your iPod for a refurbished (includes new battery) iPod. Data is no preserved/restore to the replacement
    Apple - Support - iPod - Service FAQ
    Will the data on my iPod be preserved?
    No. You will receive a replacement iPod that will not contain any of your data, songs, or after-market personalizations. Before you submit your iPod for service, it is your responsibility to keep a separate backup copy of the data stored on your iPod and reinstall that data.
    Attention iPod touch customers: Before obtaining service, it is important to back up your data using iCloud or iTunes. Apple is not responsible for the loss of information while servicing your iPod touch and does not offer any data transfer service.
    Following service your replacement iPod touch may have a newer operating system (iOS) version and you will need to restore your data using the method used to back it up (iCloud or iTunes). As a result, you may also need to update your App Store applications to ensure compatibility with the newer iOS. If you experience a problem with an application purchased from the App Store, check iTunes to see if an update is available or contact the application vendor directly.
    However, I have heard in this forum that sometimes Apple will just replace the battery.
    If you are concerned I would do one fine sync/backup and then go to Settings>General>Reset>Ease aall content and settings.

  • Can I just disconnect/remove Fios backup battery?

    I cut off my home phone service due to not needing/wanting it any longer a few months ago. Now the backup battery is beeping every few minutes. I assume that means it needs replacing.  But it's also my understanding it's only for the phone. I now only have fios cable/internet services. I disconnected the battery and took it out, but that annoying beeping continues. I have even hit the alarm off button on several occasions but it still continues. Am I missing a step or something. I'm about over it and contemplating switching back over to the local cable provider Cox Communications.

    People, when you reply to someone's post, do you even read it?  He is stating the following:
    "I disconnected the battery and took it out, but that annoying beeping continues. I have even hit the alarm off button on several occasions but it still continues."
    I assume that he wants to know how to shut off the beeping.  He does not want to buy a new battery or pull a cable off of a battery that is already out of the box!  He just wants to stop the beeping, period.
    My only suggestion is to take the box apart and cut the wire to the speaker (alarm), this will silence it for good.  Otherwise, you will have to purchase a battery and plug it in to keep it charged.
    Sorry for my little rant!

    I did, in fact, read the post. The unit itself is causing the beeping (not the battery), and as I said, this is usually caused by the unit not receiving power. Remove the CAUSE, and the symptom should be resolved. I did not suggest anything to do with the battery itself.

  • Backup Battery Question

    Hi
    I've been asked to get a Titanium up and running which has been left in a storage cupboard for years. After reading through this forum it's becoming obvious that the reason it won't power up or charge the main battery is because the internal backup battery has run flat. I've tried a few suggestions such as resetting the PMU, leaving the power cord plugged with the main battery removed, etc, but after a few days of this I think replacing the internal battery is the only way I'm going to be able to revive the machine.
    I've downloaded take-apart instructions and am fairly IT competent so I'm not put off by this, but I'm confused as to which battery part code I should order - there's three different ones for the Titanium. I don't have any documentation for this machine and as I can't start it I can only say it's the 500Mhz model with a VGA connector on the back.
    Does anyone know which battery I should order?
    Thanks =0)

    Took the plunge and opened the case up - was able to get correct part number by searching on Google using code stamped on backup battery =0)
