Hi I hope someone can help with this problem. We own an Elddis Affinity 550 caravan (2013) model. We went to turn off the alarm today and it did not beep as it would usually. We then tried to reset the alarm and again no beep. The only noise it is making is a clicking noise, once for when it would be set and twice for when it would be disarmed. The alarm itself it not being activated. We have plenty of charge in the leisure battery and have just changed the batteries in the PIR sensor but still nothing but a click and no alarm. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to rectify the problem as we are a bit worried about the caravan not having a working alarm.

Many thanks in advance for any help given.

If it is an autowatch 650 alarm it has a small lead acid back up battery inside alarm box this may be faulty and need replacing. Google search faulty autowatch 650 alarm and there is alot of content on this alarm. Or search your alarm model rather than Elddis caravan alarm that may help.
