Omnicron 8000 24 HOUR LIGHT On since decorating

[Frappo1988]

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

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.

Sweet guys thanks very much. I'll pop him off again tomorrow because there's a spring inside that maybe has to be placed a bit better. I'll let ya know how I get on thanks again

OK, it's a brilliant panel, the best of it's kind even back in the day, has no doubt been scrupulously maintained and is a shining example of how a 30 year old alarm really isn't tat fit for the bin.

 

Will that do?

mostly wired, In BT cable

Which is weird because alarm cable was cheaper than BT back then
