al-yeti Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Well seems what your doing is ok, and as above when you connect the battery it will siren as cover is open , this was me too ed above, if cable is ok and bellbox is ok and your panel isn't faulty then when you connect the battery the bell will sound until you close the lid and close the tamper Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39181-optima-xm-problems-please-help/page/2/#findComment-431926 Share on other sites More sharing options...

al-yeti Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Temporary fix move ribbon cable about a bit or push it in should resolve the keypad issue short term Otherwise change the panel its old hat now I would concentrate on the panel before bell box though , link tr or t at. Panel to 0v temporarily while you try and fix keypad issue Better to scrap it though Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/39181-optima-xm-problems-please-help/page/2/#findComment-431980 Share on other sites More sharing options...
