TEAC T-H500 Memory Battery
My TEAC T-H500 tuner does not store radio stations. I imagine that the battery needs replacement. Is this something that I could do myself?

Re: TEAC T-H500 Memory Battery
I have only had experience of replacing the battery in a Linn amp. It was quite straightforward, but did require the leads to be soldered in.

Re: TEAC T-H500 Memory Battery
The battery is available from CPC.
It needs soldering to the circuit board (after de-soldering the old one). Getting the top of the case off is a bit of a faff due to a strip of double sided tape along the front edge! Regards Martin

Re: TEAC T-H500 Memory Battery
Well, I did it! I found my trusty old soldering iron and made the replacement. I really enjoyed taking something that was pretty useless and giving it a new lease of life. I wish that I knew more about electronics as I would do it more often if I did.
Thank you for the information above. It is most appreciated |

Re: TEAC T-H500 Memory Battery
Glad you managed to sort it - the H-500 series is nice kit.
