How to reset master code on adt alarm system without original master code

The previous owners should give you the code it it was mentioned in the house sale. The unit is probably no use without a monitoring contract. You can't probably reset everything by removing the motherboard battery, but it says in the link that the code is in the manual. My initials are 'ADT'.

ADT doesn't build alarms look for other branding like Honeywell and a model number if it has a flip down door look in there. Generally speaking you need to replace a panel as the phone or cell inside your current one is set to dial out to adt you can use the censors though

Try powering down the system completely and powering it up with the battery first, that's how I do it. If the alarm goes off again you can try entering 2580. Be careful doing that! If for some reason that system is still be monitored you could end up with the police at your door. It might be a good idea to call ADT and give them your address just to confirm the system is no longer being monitored. Hope that helps!

Be sure you understand the difference between a master code and the technician code. A master code lets you program other codes (and do some other harmless stuff). The technician code lets you do anything in the panel. If no master code is known you will need to default the panel. Do that by turning off power and disconnecting the battery. Reconnect the battery or plug pack and within 10 seconds enter 971300 on the code pad. That will wipe the eeprom back to factory defaults, and reinstate user 1 as a master code with a value of 1234. Don't even think of doing any of this without an INSTALLER manual. (Not the same thing as the USER manual). Better still, get an alarm tech familiar with DAS or CADDX products to program it for you. Worth every penny. After that you can add/delete users with your own master code using the much simpler User manual. Any code can be set to be a master code (that is you can have more than one master code)

the installer code is 6321..that will let you program a new master code

Call an alarm company like ADT. If they can use it they will. it will require some minor reprogramming and they will check all sensors, if the use it. 1-800-ADT-ASAP.

The master codes are in the manual.
Or google "Simon 3 access code" or "Simon 3 ADT code" or such...

Do you mean the access code for turning off an alarm or arming the system before leaving? If so, NO. You would have to know the original code to even enter programming to change the access code. Contact your realtor and have them get you in contact with the previous owner. Find out the code from them. If they properly removed their code before moving from the house use the default code, 1234. Good Luck.
