orrellfurko Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 have you already opened the panel , if so replace the battery like for like, beware of the mains wires they are live and could kill you, but that is the easy bit, if the dead battery has been in for quite a while, then the charging circuit may be damaged, hence checks should be made to see if it is okay, if it is not, and you will not know unless you check, it may well kill your new battery in a short space of time, and you would never know. there may be other problems , hence the need for a alarm engineer..thing is it time for a service which would included a health check for the alarm and a new battery, best thing is to get a pro in and pay for the peace of mind. sorry if this is not what you wanted to read. ok, that's all I need to know - better to be alive and Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arfur mo Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 i find these kind of post's fascinating, to pay a guy for his time and supply the battery and take all the responsibility and all for If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!
