- I've spent hours trying to fix. I read and research. I figure out how to make work. Then I forget 18 months later! The video is first and foremost for me!
- As traditional burglar alarm engineers one of our first questions was - 'Where's the remote keypad?' Most traditional alarm systems have a keypad to interrogate the system's event log enabling you to see timed events such as user activity and device activation. The British Gas Safe & Secure system simply doesn't have one, nor does it need one.

My house has a British Gas alarm system fitted when it was built (but never activated as I objected to paying the rip off installation fee and monthly charges). I've got itemised billing on my BT phone line and was checking the bill online last week and I noticed that the alarm makes the occasional call to an 0870 number!!
I complained to British Gas about this but they said that the alarm might have a fault and they can send an engineer out to investigate but as the alarm isn't activated and I don't have a contract it will cost around £85!!
I wondered if it would be possible for BT to somehow block the 0870 number but they just said it's nothing to do with them and wouldn't help me (I guess they're quite happy if it continues to make calls!).
I feel like I'm being scammed here. Either I've got to pay the British Gas 'ransom' to get the alarm fixed or just let it continue making calls without my permission.
I had a look inside the alarm control box and there's 4 wires going into the PCB that come from the BT line. The terminals on the PCB are marked 'RING', 'TIP', 'T' and 'R' (or something very similar). I thought it would just be a simple job of disconnecting all the wires but when I did that the alarm started beeping and when I tried using the phone I couldn't get a dial tone so I had to re-connect it.
Is there a way to fool the alarm somehow? I wondered about pulling the fuse out of the alarm but I notice that it's got a battery backup inside the control box so I guess it'll complain like mad if I isolated it (until the battery ran out).
British gas wireless receiver wr1 and theromstat (set button in the cente) Hi, I just wondered if anyone had any experience of the British Gas Wireless Receiver WR1 which has Override Learn Mode 1 and 2 on it, combined with a British Gas thermostat with a dial and the word 'Set' in the centre please?

Hello all looking for some help just moved into a new house and has a British gas alarm :Clap:
Problem is that it is one o these monitored systems and as I don?t have a contract with them and it was set off by accident the robbing T**ts want to charge me ?80.00 to send an engineer out to reset the system :FRIGHT:
Does anyone know how to reset these as it is asking for a remote reset code? ( 4363 )
Tried a few random codes to no effect
I plan to change the panel soon but due to moving money tight :Mad2:
