Hello
I have a ITI concord express system in my home. My windows are all
hardwired with magnetic sensors.(I believe magnetic?). One of my
windows was starting to false chime...the system showing it was opened
when it was not. It was steadily getting worse. I popped the sensor
and one of the two wires to the sensor fell out of the crimp. I was
pleased as the fix seemed obvious. I restripped the wires and
reattached. Put it back in the window but now the system never shows
the window closed. I even tried putting the two wires together to
close the circuit, did nothing.
I did feel a slight tinkling feeling of low voltage when I first
restripped the wires...I did not unplug nor did I consider unplugging
the main system prior to doing this.
What else could be wrong? Why would this sensor suddenly stop working?
I dont have an installation manual for this system, only the user
guide.
Any help or troubleshooting would be appreciated-
Thanks
Jim
