    Hi, I getting the above fault on an alarm panel. The main alarm battery in the hotpress was changed last year so I assume this should be ok. Is there another battery in the user panel itself?

    Thanks.

    Thanks for that. I thought all the sensors were hard wired but will double check.

    I checked the alarm panel and after going through the Engineers menu found that the problem lies with the carbon monoxide sensor EI208. There is a sticker on it recommending that it be replaced this year. I was going to replace it with the same model but found some poor reviews about it online. Can anyone recommend a good place to find an alternative please? Thanks.

    Thanks Donnacha. I got a replacement EI208 and RF unit before I read your post. I installed them but the fault is still coming up on the alarm panel. I pressed the test button on the CO alarm and it worked ok. About every 5 seconds the red led comes on, then it changes to green then blue. Not sure why this is happening.
