Re: PC1553 Home Security System Problem

Well if you resorted to unplugging the transformer from the wall and didn't
disconnect the battery, and the system "went dead" then I suspect the
battery is history. I'd start there and replkace it. Once you power it up
with a new battery you'll have to set the clock again or the trouble light
will remain on.
