Seeking default remote access code for a GE cordless phone

If you need the remote access code for the answering system, then the original (default) access code is given in the manual on page 50 (page 53 of the PDF) and on 55 (page 58 of the PDF). See the manual online at https://att.vtp-media.com/ecp/documents/product_Product/364/UserManual/5977/SL82118_manual_i10.pdf . Unfortunately, if the remote access code has been changed, the default code will not work. As far as I know there is no way to reset the SL82318 remote access code to the factory default remotely. See page 50 of the manual to reset the phone's access code when you are using the handset. When you use the handset and start to change the code, the current remote access code will be announced first.

Any voice mail system would be accessed using the phone number and codes from your telephone service provider. This information will not correspond to the answering system of the SL82318.

I hope this helps.

There is a battery compartment on the back. The cover should just slide off by pushing and sliding down. Check page 2 all the to the right . Here is the manual. http://www.home-electronics.net/ge/pc/IB/25922GE3_IB.pdf

Default ACCESS CODE is 111, change 3 digit access code using home station phone, select MENU, enter #306, follow prompt.

See if that works.

I have a similar model. You need to configure a remote access code on the phone. Then, when you call your phone, you enter the pin after your message starts.

(From the manual)
Using a touch-tone phone, you can call your phone number from outside and access the unit to listen to messages or change answering system settings. The unit's voice guidance prompts you to press certain dial keys to perform different operations.

Remote access code:
A 3-digit remote access code must be entered when operating the answering system remotely. This code prevents unauthorized parties from listening to your messages remotely. The default
setting is "111".

Important:
To prevent unauthorized access to this product, we recommend that you regularly change the remote code.
1 {MENU} {#} {3} {0} {6}
2 Enter the desired 3-digit remote
access code.
3 {SAVE} {OFF}

Below is a link to the manual. The remote access instructions are on page 35.

I love my old GE coded/cordless phone set, but the cordless phone's buttons won't dial anymore; they get stuck. Can I get a replacement for the cordless phone only? The charging cradle seems to still work. It is Model # 27958GE1 A. Thanks!

If you have set up the TAM settings correctly then it seems to be a fault with the machine. I've set up my TAM settings with new pin and I still can't remotely access the messages.

Make sure you are pressing the * key before you enter the default code (as far as I can recall).
