Tamper circuits are on the keypad the main panel the external sounder and the devices themselves.
I was refering to the manual for the panel, the keypad one is just a bit of A4 paper folded.

ok someone on other site surjested the tamp switch not right in still the same if it the wrong one which one should i try then please

Well I have said check ALL tampers.
But the RKP may be wrong anyway.

Check ALL tampers with a multi meter, that way WE ARE NOT GUESSING.

Something doesnt look right there. I think you have your black and white crossed over, but the labels aren't very clear tbh, bit too ambiguous.
Dont recognise the labels but if I had to plump for an educated guess I would go as follows.


ST-, yellow goes to STROBE-
R-, white goes to B-
SW, black goes to SCB T
V+, red goes to B+
V-, green goes to SCB A
