From reading your post I would recommend you get an installer to look at your system and sort all the issues together. The zone issue could be a faulty sensor or a connection issue or both.

If that is all that is on the zone then it is either the cable or the sensor itself.
If you close off the zone using the cable in the sensor and the system arms this will rule out the cable. If it works then replace the sensor.
If you open the sensor and post a picture more than happy to tell you how to fix it. If the alarm goes off simply enter your code on the keypad to turn it off.
