    Hi

    I had an incident with the HKC panel late last year (power cut, was doing an interview and the inside bell started ringing, couldn't turn it off, ripped the bell out of the panel).

    Now I get sporadic problems with zones reporting as open. Was fine for 2 months, but now two zones, in the space of 2 days are reporting being open.

    Anyone know is the panel is knackered?

    How old is the system?
    Have you tested sensors to confirm nothing is faulty?

    It was a mouse who ate the wires under the floorboards!! He didn't eat the whole way through so was able to use other codes in one wire, and bypass the other

    At lease you found the cable he had ate through.
    Glad you got it sorted.
