THnaks for this,

I see there is a reset button just a pin hole at the bottom 

 Hadn't noticed it before so 
Now that I've got the instructions I see it's easy enough to do.

Cheers.

There’s a reset button on the back.  Depending on how you use it, you get a 
hard or soft reset, or complete factory reset, that may or may not preserve 
your settings.  Although the discussion of the AirPort Utility looks like its 
obsolete, in that you may not have the option to manage profiles anymore or 
restore from a previous configuration, see this for Apple’s explanation:
https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201945

Basically, try pressing the button lightly once, and use “public” to gain 
access.  Make the changes necessary, including entering the new password.  
Hopefully, your other settings should be preserved.  If this is not what you 
want, press the button for 10 seconds instead to reset the settings, and put 
your previous configuration into a profile (which only AirPort Utility 5.6.1 
can use).  Finally, if you were to sell the unit or want a completely clean 
factory condition, turn the power on while holding the reset button down, for 
10 seconds, and let up.  You will have a completely clean unit with no settings 
and no profiles, just like new.
