Wind sets our house alarm off sometimes.
It happened yessdi when I was upstairs getting changed. I shouted down to W to use the remote to turn it off. She tried, it didn't work.
So I had to come down, got the spare out, it didn't work either, so tried to remember the code to turn it off, that we never use. All this with the internal alarm doing our heads in.
Finally remembered it and turned it off. Phew.
Opened up the remotes, (never looked inside them before) one of the aerials promptly fell out and the red LED fing with it.
(Shucks). Expected to find button batts but no, were both the little 12 v 23 amp numbers. No wonder they have lasted absolutely years!!
But no wonder the neighbours who look after our house when we are away said theirs wasn't working!
Hey ho, off to Amazon, or somewhere, we go!
I have been "told" to "write the code down somewhere" (It is in fact in the handbook, and I don't remember where it has got to! Shhh!)
