I have a Eurosec LCD Keypad for CP8L that has started to fail on certain button presses. Rather than risk any reprogramming errors by keys not working I’d like to replace it. I have checked and they are still being sold.
I will have a go at most things if I think they may be within my skills. As such, I think a simple replacement of a part should be within my remit, however, I have no particular alarm expertise.
I would be grateful if a knowledgeable person would be kind enough to offer me some advice and/or assistance.

- Can I undo the wires on the existing one and replace in the same location on the new one whilst the alarm is still on, but in unset mode? (Obviously I would ensure that no wires touched each other.)
- Would by doing the above set off any alarm by reason of a tamper?
- Or would I have to disconnect the alarm. If I have to do this, do I, disconnect the mains; then the battery; effect the change; then reconnect the battery; then the mains?
- Would any or all of the above affect any programming in the unit?
- Is there anything I should be wary of, or some other thing I would need to know?
