datadiffusion Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Theres a difference between a global brand with a far eastern factory and crappy 'local' brands though.

POC Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 Ok, update. I put in the engineer code (no on screen confirmation that i was actually in eng mode?) Removed cover, no alarm. I was met with this mess (see pic). Upon pulling off the negative battery wire the alarm sounded saying 'control panel tamper, restore required' Now what? Anyone know of someone local to Hemel Hempstead that can fix this? thanks, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POC Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 Right, got myself properly into eng mode (found instructions). removed battery and all is still powered, I'll buy a new battery and try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POC Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 Yes they've obviously used the battery from the old alarm. Here is the battery from the front: No idea why it says 9ah on the back!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixwheeledbeast Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 IBT reading was done in 2014 and read 9Ah. How old it the battery (code on the top) and does it rattle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
