Unfortunately, without a specific Behringer pedal model, I can only provide general instructions. Based on the video referenced, changing the battery in some Behringer pedals involves a slightly hidden or less obvious method. Here's how it generally works, and what the video alludes to:
-
Locate the Battery Compartment: Unlike some pedals with easily accessible battery doors, Behringer pedals often have a battery compartment located underneath the footswitch button.
-
Accessing the Compartment:
- Push Through: The video mentions pushing through a section (presumably the footswitch). This implies you'll need to press firmly (but not destructively!) on the footswitch itself or a nearby area, likely near the top of the pedal, to release a catch or mechanism.
- Initial Movement: After pushing through, the footswitch or a part of the enclosure near it should come up slightly.
-
Dealing with Tension: The video notes the second part of the process might be harder due to tension. This likely means a clip or spring is holding the compartment closed. Be prepared to apply slightly more force, but always prioritize carefulness to avoid damage.
-
Revealing the Battery: Once you've managed to open the compartment, you should see the 9V battery.
-
Replacing the Battery: Remove the old battery and replace it with a fresh 9V battery, ensuring correct polarity (+ and -).
-
Closing the Compartment: Carefully close the battery compartment, ensuring any clips or catches are properly engaged. You may need to push back down on the footswitch or related area to secure it.
Important Considerations:
- Model Variation: Battery compartment access varies among Behringer pedals. The video describes one specific, possibly less common, method.
- Force: Avoid excessive force at any point. If it feels like something is stuck, double-check for hidden latches or screws. Consider searching YouTube for videos specific to your Behringer pedal model.
- Damage: Incorrect battery installation can damage the pedal. Double-check polarity.
Disclaimer: This information is based on the limited video reference and general knowledge. Always consult your pedal's manual or search for model-specific instructions before attempting any maintenance.
