Timex Advanced Data Link 53722 Wrist Watch

Replaced battery, now no beep.

posted by CodexSearch on May 31, 2008


Just replaced battery in Timex Expedition Indiglo Digital Watch, but now I notice the beeper doesn't work at all. My guess (which may be wrong) is that I need to reset the watch. Label inside watch says "after battery insertion, short AC pad and battery (+) to reset. Can't find the AC pad. Help!!

How to reset the "Short Reset Pad/VDD(+)" on a Timex Ironman . First, orient your watch face down (with the watch belt buckle opposite you), the new battery in and latched. Second, on the right side battery hold-down latch you will see a small metal circle (~1 mm diameter) with a black dot in the center. Take a small paper clip and touch this metal pad to the metal battery hold-down latch for about 1 second. This will reset the watch.

I have a Timex Digital Heart Rate Monitor 585 (product code T5C351F5)m, which has the same Short AC Pad and battery +ve message. There is an arrowhead pointing to the pad. It's a raised metal platform - a bit different to some of the Ironman's mentioned above. Here is a pic...

turn it over, take the back off, you'll see a small metal 'peg' sticking out to the right of the battery, take a paper clip and touch the peg and battery at the same time.
then, put the sticker back on the batter, or a small piece of scotch tape
