Top info, for that! Hopefully resetting the PA will do it, failing that I'll have a look for an engineer to fix/replace it. Hopefully it won't cost too much! Cheers all, for the info :).

Ok, fair enough. Many thanks for the advice! It seems odd to have to service it just because of this fault. I'll firstly see if resetting the PA button can make it come back to life, hopefully that'll do the trick. It's a bit annoying how the system is linked up to the lights! I assume that if we got a new battery, turning off the fuse wouldn't make the alarm go off.

At the moment the "Attack" button is lit up, along with the power button. I'll see if I can find a decent company do to it. I see you're in the North West, any chance you could recommend a company near Sale/Cheshire?

Thanks for the quick reply! So when I'm able to reset the PA button, would I be able to reset the system then? How much would a professional charge for a service, and what would that include? This is the first house I've had with an alarm system, so it's all a bit new to me.

Hi, a house that I've just moved in to has got an Accenta 6 system fitted and I'm having trouble with resetting it, could anyone help? Firstly, having not seen the system before, we pressed the PA button in the living room (we didn't know what it was, oops!) and then we managed to turn off the alarm on the keypad, but we haven't got a key to reset the button (I've just ordered one). Yesterday, I was changing a light switch so I had to turn off the power to the lights on our fuseboard. When I turned the fuse back on the alarm sounded, outside and in. I typed in the code which silenced the alarm, but it has left the strobe light flashing outside. The keypad now seems to be locked, nothing happens when I press any of the buttons. Could anybody please advise on how I can reset the system? I need to stop this strobe flashing, and we need the alarm to be working asap. I apologise if this is something that is already covered on the forum, I couldn't see anything that matched the issue that I'm having. Many thanks!
