  1. Not feeling the Yale love. Regardless of our opinions on Yale (he's not asked for them btw) they are set at a price point and specific market. PJ not sure they go off every time a taxi goes past, there's 1 on my St and the next door neighbour gets taxis 3-4 times a week, I've never heard it go off. Yes in a professional world they are a poor choice but it's not our choice in this case. When was the last time anyone heard of a radio system being compromised via jamming etc?
  2. Personally I'd leave it to a professional, but if you are determined to attempt this yourself I would start at the external sounder, be prepared for the noise (ear plugs) and high voltage if there is a strobe present. Remove the lid and snip the wire to the actual sounder (often small, black and round). Should only ring then for a few seconds up to doing this. You can then remove at your leisure.
  3. Used to have dozens upon dozens of those bad boys in my area.
  4. I know a subby who used to rock up at the office in his Bentley, I piss you not.
  5. I'd go with swapping locations with the other and see if it follows the device.
  6. Anything reflective opposite the detector that could have caused issue?
  7. Some scruffy get's left a drum of cable outside, won't be there long in 'ull

    Hello and welcome
  9. Lighting circuits are fraught with interference, fluorescents, chokes etc. not good practice.
  10. If you have the code some may not warrant it.
  11. Yes if you sign a disclaimer for liability purposes.
  12. Yes I've done computers, ordered an induction hob for a German couple I know who's English is poor, I also changed their fax machine language to German for them Loads and loads the more I think The gardening was an old dear who answered the door with her watering can in her hand with the greeting of "I'll get the kettle on, you water the plant pots."
  13. I've done lots of things whilst on a PPM, (fnar) from watering plants to checking oil levels and changing batteries in clocks. In fact I'm calling in to see an ex customer, now friend of 25 years tomorrow because he can't work his Sat Nav in his new car.
  14. Che3rs big ears, I have pt 1 & 2 somewhere but doubt I'll ever need them.
  15. Not heard that for years, I did TV and video servicing c&g (224?) used to work in a great old retro shop near Pontefract. I met the owners son @ college and have been best friends since. His grandad started the shop selling and repairing bikes then went on to recharging and selling batteries and progressed to a really busy indi TV, video and hi fi Shop. It's still there (2 shops) but he stopped the electrical side 20 years or so ago. They now sell pet foods in one and gardening gear in the other. Zzzzzz
