We had a power cut, the outside light keeps flashing?

We recently had a power cut, the alarm went off, it has since stopped, but the outside blue alarm light keeps flashing.
I have read the manual and it says to enter engineer codes on the keypad. I've gone to the keypad, it's lit but its not responding to anything being entered.
I've tried ringing the helpline, but apparently they are too busy at this moment to answer my call (obviously because these alarms are crap and everyone is calling). Has or does anyone know how to rectify this problem please? Many thanks

If you ring your garage to book your car for a service, what is the first questions asked, 'What make is it please?'

-- so a 'Crap' question.

Isn't it a shame no one uses the SEARCH facility at the top of the page, the answer to all these 'unique' questions will be found there.

Alarm is right - my contribution and his contributed nothing of value. e manno rules OK

Sorry Alarm - did not mean to upset you - just like the sound of my own voice.

And of course your contribution helped loads "Peccavi".

You are right though, the make and panel would help.

Thanks for popping in and doing fuc all Pekky.

Don't bother with them on the phone mate, just replace the control backup battery.

Mains off first before you open the panel then follow the resetting method as per manual,

A new battery should sort it out :)

They will nag at you for leaving out the equipment make and type -mark my words...

Good luck...
