Can a battery be reset on a Becker radio?
The battery is a simple replace at any radio or TV shop locally. Only if we had a reset tool to reload the radio after the battery replace. Sending a radio back to Becker for this is much expensive just to get a reload after a battery. And the dealer can also reset if they have the tool. But most dealers no longer have the toll.
