I had an alarm activation due to a light bulb blowing the plug fuse and affecting the circuit board I managed to reset or as I thought but the lights on my pirs will not go off...any suggestions?

Are you talking about passive infra-red motion detectors? That control light bulbs? And the lights won't turn off?

Try powering the thing off for five minutes then trying again.

Otherwise, post some basic information - manufacturer and model of the PIR would be a start. And upload a photo of the circuit board.

Is there any visible damage to the board?

What electronics experience do you have?

Do you have a multimeter?

another thing to check and this sounds silly but check it anyway, on the back of some of these lights you have a switch, always on, always off and PIR controlled... just make sure its in the right position. have seen people spend money on trying to fix these and its that switch, on most I have found its not obvious and on others it has no switch
