[QUOTE="FunkyCatUK, post: 513910, member: 33847"] Dear all, To add to the above: .... 9. Replaced backup battery with new one. Problems still there. I'd assume this means damaged cables (as Sharpend suggests). Just to clarify, two of the four sensors are affected. The original alarm fit was done pre-plastering / flooring completion, so all the wires are now either buried under plaster or finished flooring (so in accessible). Aside from get a completely new wireless alarm system I guess the only way to resolve this is to run fresh cables to each of the affected PIRs. I'll try to hide the cables as much as possible, but I don't see any other way? One final thing. I haven't actually looked inside the alarm keypad (next to the front door). This seems a little trickier to open (no screws - juts appear to be 'clipped' shut) and I don't want to break it whilst doing so. Not sure if looking in there would gain anything. Thanks again.
