Hi, I've just moved to a place with a 22 year-old C&K Securitech 700L alarm system installed, the main fuse had been pulled and there was no battery.  I've put a new battery in and reset the whole system, all zone sensors work and the user code activates the system entry/exit on the keypad, but both the internal and external sirens/strobe don't activate, is there anything else I can check?

 

Thanks in advance.

I would be concerned about the reliability of a decommissioned system especially at that age.

You could manually trigger them by applying voltage, it's possible they are faulty and/or have been disconnected at the device.

Thanks, I think the battery will be going back for a refund!

Although I agree with swb I wouldnt rush back to the shop just yet give it a test, it may have been decommissioned because the house was empty and the power was off a few years after it was installed, and never been used till now the sounders will probably not work due to someone decommissioning them at the sounder

Agree with above, plus #9 on some versions didn't actually fire the bell outputs. Test it properly and confirm
