It's not so much that I can't twist tamper wires together, it's that I don't know which ones the tamper wires are. I'll send some photos and see if you're able to guide me. I'm able to remove the power (and I think it's safe). I've got two new PIRs as well, so I'll change those. Wiring looks...

Another quick question: the only way I could get the alarm to stop was to disconnect the mains power supply AND remove the battery. Is there a way of deactivating the system while it's all still wired up? I just reconnected the mains to see what would happen, and just in that split second it...

My thought was about the door because it's a bit loose in its frame (so has been shaking in all this strong wind we've been having) and has also warped, so the sensors are slightly 'out' by a few mm, and I wondered whether that might be it. Just speculation... Nothing else has changed on the...

Thanks so much. I think linking the tamper wires is beyond my competence, but I've just ordered a new battery, as the existing one is over a decade old (although it did its job and kept the siren going when I turned off the mains). But if your colleague does cover my area it'd be great to be in...

Hi, I have a Menvier TS400 and I keep getting a tamper red light, even when I'm at home and the alarm is off. I think it has something to do with a dodgy sensor on the front door. - Does anyone know how to fix this? - More importantly, it's due for a service, I'm in NW London (Belsize Park...

Thanks - I'll give all that a go! Much appreciated, you've been a godsend.

Thanks again, Handymanjo. Really grateful to you for sticking with me on this. That seemed to do the trick! Once I reset it, the zone 5 light went off... I thought I'd then be able to remove the panic alarm but as soon as I did, the TAMPER light came on. Do you think there's any way I could...

Thanks so much - (and forgive me if I'm being dense, but) you mean running a short wire between the terminals where I've taken out the red and yellow on Zone 5, right? Is there any danger I will set the thing off if I do this? (Neighbours getting a bit tetchy...) And also, are you assuming that...

Thanks - here you go.

I'm struggling to get anywhere with this. Is there someone in this forum who knows this model and could walk me through it on a video call (FaceTime/WhatsApp etc)? I would be happy to pay for your time...

thanks Handymanjo, I will!

Thanks so much. Unfortunately my tech knowledge isn't up to fully understanding or actioning all that. I think I might have to get someone in...

Hi - I have a Menvier TS400 Alarm system. Pretty simple set-up in a 1-bed flat. There are two hand-push panic switches. One was screwed to a window sill, which I removed and coiled with its cable in a corner of the room and forgot about (the alarm went off while I did this because I had to take...
