    If feature 983 is an inactive feature on your phone then you have a Nortel BCM 200/400. The voicemail is administered through its network portand needs a certian program(Nortel network element manager).This one has to be reset by either someone with access to the system through the network (IT manager) or a tech to administered locally.

I am unable to unlock my voicemail on my Nortel 7316 phone system

You would need to log in as the voicemail admin using "Feature 983" followed by 102 (if you have 3 digit extension numbers) then the voicemail admin password. From there you can select MBOX and reset the password to 0000 for the mailbox in question.

My nortel voicemail is locked

What password is no longer valid? The admin, the operator, the installer?

What are you pressing to log in?

Depending on what VM system you have there is a feature # you key in.

For instance the Nortel Callpilot feature is "feature, 981" If this is your first time logging in you will have to enter a password. Contact your systems administrator to reset or set your password to never ask.
