Kagzy Posted September 28, 2022 Posted September 28, 2022 Hi everyone can I get some help please? One of my pir sensors was faulty would randomly go off in the night, so I stupidly decided to change it myself with a new D20 one, I wired it up accordingly and now I noticed that non of the sensors in the house have the red led motion light blinking anymore, when I input the alarm code in the separate panel now all the zone lights light up red and it makes the beeping noise but the alarm won't set anymore. I've tried looking online but can not find anything, please help! Quote
PeterJames Posted September 28, 2022 Posted September 28, 2022 You have blown the internal aux fuse Quote
Kagzy Posted September 29, 2022 Author Posted September 29, 2022 Please can you tell me where this is located? I saw 3 glass fuses, middle one said battery and that was blown other two were fine Quote
PeterJames Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 how do you know they were fine, did you check them with a multimeter? The battery one is your charging circuit when was the battery last replaced, if that fuse has blown its normally because the battery is drawing too much current, in other words knackered Quote
Kagzy Posted September 29, 2022 Author Posted September 29, 2022 The fuses are glass fuses and the only one that has a break that I can see in the wire is the 13v/speaker. In regards to the battery the red connection to it looks like it corroded away years ago (just saw this when I opened it) but has been working fine without this Quote
james.wilson Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 it wont be 'working fine' it may be functional the only way to reliably check a fuse is with a meter, but if you can see a break on the 13v one that is the aux Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

Kagzy Posted September 29, 2022 Author Posted September 29, 2022 update: Replacing the 13v/speaker fuse did the trick, next step is to replace the battery, thanks guys! Quote

Lets hope its not too late for that, if the battery has been pulling the charging circuit down enough to blow a fuse it may be your panel is unable to charge a new battery Quote
