**** Need info on a W-726 ****
well I bought a joblot of digital's (a avia a f91-w and a W-726)
Got the w-726 working well it is lit up but can't seem to get it to do anything so wondering is their a reset needed or do I needed to jump it like you do some of the Seiko date-banks or is there another trick or is it shot
Any help would be appreciated

Awesome Ismy.
Did you change the battery?
There may be an AC reset inside.

pic's off the net
bit late to take one till the morning of mine it's a bit more worn and minus the strap it came dead so had to strip clean and put back together with new battery but as I said it lit up lovely but it won't do anything so was hoping you guys might know of a reset option or something that will trigger it to start ?
and thanks will have to source a bracelet of cut down one from a f-91w maybe

It might have an AC (all clear) reset that would jump start it. Looks like a module that was pretty standard in a lot of casio's from the early '90's.
Here's a link to a youtube help video that shows how to do the AC reset when you change the battery.

Hope that helps to get it running correctly Ismy. That's a great looking old casio. The screen layout is classic.

well the F-91 is shot half decent case all I could get it to do was the light to work
the avia well got that going a treat there is a bit of damage to the one lug looks like some was a bit eager to pull the pins and rip it out but have clean it and think I will use spring bars to fix that
the 726 needs a bit of polywatching to the crystal but out side looks good in side not to bad but just got to get it to trip

If the buttons dont work, you could check if the module seated correctly on the socket and the buttons pin nudge the contact..
you could also pull the module out first and push the contact area with a screwdriver to see if it work or not... of course after AC reset like Greg suggest..
