How to reset/uncheck radio button onclick event?

Question

I have 2 radio button with 2 group.

The structure is like this

1. Main Radio 1
2. Main Radio 2

Under Main Radio 2, there's two more sub radio button.

1. Main Radio 1
2. Main Radio 2
   • Sub Radio 1
   • Sub Radio 2

What am I doing is, in default stage, it will only show Main Radio 1 and Main Radio 2 button. When choose Main Radio 2, two sub radio button of Main Radio 2 appear.

When choose back to Main Radio 1, it will hide the list of Main Radio 2.

The one that I want to achieve is,

When click Main Radio 1, the selection that I made for Sub Radio 1 or Sub Radio 2, want to be uncheck / reset too.

I tried with this javascript, but no success.

document.getElementById("subradiobuttons").reset(); 

Please kindly help me the solutions. Thank you.

With Regards,

I think the best approach for a simple task like this does not needs a full JavaScript library like jQuery.

document.getElementById("main2").addEventListener("click", function()
{
    document.getElementById("subCheckButtons").style.opacity = 1;
}, false);
document.getElementById("main1").addEventListener("click", function()
{
    document.getElementById("subCheckButtons").style.opacity = 0;
    document.getElementById("sub1").checked = false;
    document.getElementById("sub2").checked = false;
}, false);

<input type="radio" id="main1" name="main" />
<input type="radio" id="main2" name="main" />
<div id="subCheckButtons" style="opacity:0;">
    <input type="radio" id="sub1" name="sub" class="subCheck" />
    <input type="radio" id="sub2" name="sub" class="subCheck" />
</div>

Or see the fiddle.

Here is another approach that will reset all inputs to their default position if someone clicks on "Main Radio 1."

//Clear all inputs.
function clearInputs(form) {
    "use strict";

    //Gather all inputs within selected form.
    const inputs = form.querySelectorAll("input");

    //Clear the inputs.
    inputs.forEach(function (input) {
        if (input.hasAttribute("checked") === true) {
            input.checked = true;
        } else {
            input.checked = false;
        }
    });
}

//Monitor "Main Radio 1" for clicks.
function monitorMainRadio1() {
    "use strict";

    const form = document.getElementById("form");
    const mainRadio1 = document.getElementById("main-radio1");

    mainRadio1.addEventListener("click", function () {
        clearInputs(form);
    });
}

//Invoke the monitorMainRadio1 function.
monitorMainRadio1();
