  • How to Replace the Battery and Perform an AC Reset on a CASIO G-Shock GA-100CF Watch**
    *Introduction*
    This guide will provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to replace the battery and perform an AC (All Clear) reset on a CASIO G-Shock GA-100CF watch. Please note that this process requires the use of specific watchmaker tools.
    *Identifying the Need for an AC Reset*
    If the display on your digital watch is malfunctioning or displaying incorrect information, it may require an AC reset. Upon removing the watch's back, you should observe an indication of a reset hole on the watch's movement. This is often marked with the letters "AC."
    *Battery Replacement*
    1. *Battery Type:* The CASIO G-Shock GA-100CF watch utilizes a CR1220 battery. Compatible battery brands include Renata, Sony, and Maxell.
    2. *Battery Replacement Procedure:*
    a) Open the watch's back using the appropriate watchmaker tool.
    b) Locate the battery compartment and carefully remove the old battery.
    c) Insert the new CR1220 battery, ensuring proper polarity.
    d) Secure the battery compartment and close the watch's back.
    *AC Reset Procedure*
    1. *Identifying the AC Reset Hole:* After removing the watch's back, locate the AC reset hole on the watch's movement. It is typically marked with the letters "AC."
    2. *Resetting the Watch:*
    a) Insert the tip of a non-metallic tool, such as a toothpick, into the AC reset hole.
    b) Gently press and hold the reset button for approximately two seconds.
    c) The watch should now be reset, and the display should function correctly.
    *Conclusion*
    By following these instructions, you can successfully replace the battery and perform an AC reset on your CASIO G-Shock GA-100CF watch. If you encounter any difficulties or have additional questions, please consult a professional watch repair service.

    I like how you zoomed in on the battery de-installation. Its slow and I was able to not have to replay the video over and over again! Good job!!

    Thank you!!! Wanted to make 100% sure that I was understanding the directions that are printed on the battery cover that states to "contact the AC to - after battery replacement " which I assumed was something you would do with the battery removed in order to discharge the caps. Now I know that you MUST have a new battery installed prior to "AC reset" so.....THANK YOU!!!!

    You've nailed that, though it's not necessary to use metal tweezers to put the new battery in as it's easy to just push it back in with your fingers and that negates having to press the AC button as it's not going to be shorted by the tweezers.

    Very clear, but I wish you would speak and explain what and why ? I have a Canibal watch ( bought 2016} and I have fitted the 3rd battery of it's life. IE this is second for me. First time I did not do anything about shorting AC . Now it is not starting and I can see AC marked on metal part but it is not clear where to place tweezer legs ?

    • @benbrown9053
      @benbrown9053 Před rokem

      @billB101 it's common to get a dead battery in a new pack. Always check with another battery. Also by experience I had a watch that wouldn't reset and if it didn't reset it wouldn't turn on, somehow after many attempts resetting it magically worked.. idk if it was a timex or casio but that happened once and I read it can happen.
