Eircom PhoneWatch Keeps Going Off

    The alarm for the phonewatch alarm installed in the place I am renting keeps going off. It keeps saying alarm 8 bathroom window alarm when it goes off. It is an International Concord alarm system. I've gotten the manual on Altor.ie and did the status+code+alarm number, to bypass that particular alarm but it does not accept 08.

    Anyone know anyway to disable it completely. It's not connected to any telephone lines.

    Update: I've unscrewed the box and the tamper alarm went off which I then disabled and it hasn't gone off in about 15 minutes now (compared to every one minute before). If I leave the box off will that work?

    Took out the fuse beside it on the wall. Opened it up. Made sure there wasn't any mains current and took out the battery and it went dead. Happy days.

    More than likely an issue with the sensor itself. Bathroom or kitchen windows can be trouble some with steam in these areas.
    You can remove the sensor head, join the two cables together and see if that sorts the issue. If so then just get a new head and replace.
