Changing battery in alarm door sensor

[CTO]

Anyone know how to do it?

Photos below.





There is a small hole that looks as though you should insert a screwdriver to pop off a clip inside, but having done that, it doesn’t seem to be doing much.

Helpful to know if there is a knack to doing it, before I accidentally mangle the innards!

Would rather do it myself than pay a call out fee!

Cheers all

Anyone ?

Try searching for the makers instruction manual?
Else is there also a screw hiding somewhere?

I tried to use Google Lens, it returns all sorts of power bank items and battery charger pictures.

And how to replace batteries in your remote control

Then it brings up your post on Pistonheads.

So not much help really.

I did the same, no bueno...

Seems unusual that in the modern age, instructions are so hard to find for something that I might have to pay a person to come and put a battery in...

I would say screwdriver in and twist it slightly, they can be a nightmare to part sometimes.

Yep. Ignore me….. I’ve just sorted it by using a different screwdriver, the one I didn’t think I had but was actually in the drawer, next to the door, where the alarm sensor is…


I annoy myself sometimes..

Thanks all
