Frappo1988 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Hi guys, I've got a omnicron 8000... When I decorated I removed the front face of one of the detectors in the front room and ever since I've had the 24 hour light on constantly. With this I can't set the alarm as it goes to go off everytime I press reset. Please help don't just tell me to bin it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixwheeledbeast Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 The lid isn't on the front room sensor properly. Also if you haven't had it serviced recently you will likely need a control panel battery at least, if the rest is working. Alarms do need regular maintenance.

Will that do?
