Oxo Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Fit new panel and a anti surge protection kit , that hopefully will blow and save the panel. Unless it is a cheap panel and then it might be cheaper to just replace the panel of it happens again, had one site hit 4 times! Ps does your phone work or are you using a dongle?

sixwheeledbeast Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Be careful you don't blow your new panel with a blown speech dialler. As above test on a battery first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morph Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Do you actually know what was wrong with the system before you started? What made you change the battery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
