I came here to see how to fix the beep without buying a new one. This is just an ad.

Andrew, thank you for that information. You are correct, it is 10 years old, and still chirping, not the same chirp, but still annoying at 1 AM in my Bedroom. You neglected to say what you can do to stop the chirp until a new one is installed!

Never knew about the date. I ran out for a new battery, than looked on the back of the detector. Mine is 8 years old. Time to replace. Thanks.

Thank you for all your help I have done everything and it’s still chirping. Preaciate you!!. Thank you for the video your help was great

Your affiliate link for amazon doesn't match the model number in your video. Which do I get to keep it hard wired??

🙏Thank you, video is pretty comprehensive. We've known for decades to change ALL our smoke/CO2 alarms annually... the voice & or chirping is the follow up. As said, pull the battery(s) hit the device reset to clear, then install new batteries (right way around 😀) Cheers

I was really hoping you'd help me disengage the chirping one (with new batteries).

Thank you for this.

You have a real nice shop in the background...I'm jealous!!

We can’t thank you enough 💯🙌

The new one I bought won’t fit the wiring I currently have but I put batteries in it. Is it ok to run it off 100% battery ?

Thank you. It helped.

Goes to a different fire alarm that does not have electrical connection same company. The one that you’re recommending is around $44 on sale

Does First Alert still offer free replacement of the device?

Great advice.

replaced battery on first alert mfg Aug 2008 and was happy with new double A's.

The First Alert model he suggests you buy is TERRIBLE! Truly the worst smoke alarm/carbon monoxide detector you can buy! I bought a three pack of these First Alert garbage detectors 2 years ago. Once the battery dies, and you insert completely new batteries the alarm will not stop chirping. In fact, the company has a website page that addresses this with 6 reasons why the alarm won't stop chirping. It's a known design problem because the alarm keeps the charge and won't sense a new battery. The self-help options don't work, and the troubleshooting hyperlink is dead. ABSOLUTELY THE WORST!

Me: checks date of smoke alarm when it was first installed “made in 2006” It’s been over 15 years. It’s gotta go. Gonna upgrade to the newer technology stuff. Even with a new battery I could tell it was wearing off due to age. This video this hit got straight to it 👍

What if your fire alarm is dinging if your house is less than 2 years old?

If some smoke alarms are linked electronically to each other throughout the house, do you have to change all the batteries at the same time?

What is the power plug for if it uses a battery ?, is the battery a power back-up in case your main power is out ?

Hi there Andrew, I have the same smoke/CO alarm you demonstrated in the video and have replaced the AA batteries twice, gone downstairs and turned off the power to reset once, and have run a microfiber cloth around the outside of the unit. Still chirping. Any ideas? I'm just about out of my freakin' mind now after hearing the chirps since I got home from work yesterday. Would love to hear from anyone on how to fix! Oh, my house was build in 2020 so the alarm is not aged. Can't be more than 2-3 years old. Many thanks, Theresa

But I live in an apartment. They have a hard wire with AA battery back up in my hallway (tiny one bedroom) its not linked to the rest of the smoke detectors in the building when it chirps it does not set off the one in the bedroom 5 feet away. The wireless one in the bedroom doesn't set off the one in the hall. Criminy.... the one in the hall is loud enough to wake you in the night when it starts chirping with dead batteries

Thanks i learned something new today 😂❤

But... I replaced my hardwired, battery-backup Kidde unit, and the brand new unit still begins chirping within 12 hours of replacement. Before I replaced the unit, it would begin chirping about every 2 months after the replacement of the battery. So, what's going on here?

I changed all the batteries in my smoke detectors. The one in my bedroom is still chirping it is hard wired home is three years old. Used all new batteries. Thought it was fixed last night however 12 midnight it went off again and again a 10 this morning help please!

HELP!!! I literally have no more smoke detectors in this house and the beeps are still coming out of the bracketed outlets with the wires hanging out. Can someone help? I am literally going crazy now. Can't find a video that deals with this.

My batteries were changed but the alarm goes off randomly my place is only one year old. Any suggestions?

Mine is new but still won't stop chirping. ...... so - what's the reason? Ive replaced the batteries and pressed the test button. Still chirps

Moved into to a 2 yr old home a couple of months ago. Changed the battery back up for Kiddle smoke detectors. It starting chirping today and we can’t get it to stop. Changed the batteries. Cleaned sensors and 2 of them still chirps. HELP

So my wife hands me three batteries to change out all the smoke detectors. First one gave me fits couldn’t get it to stop beeping after changing the battery, tip number one “ make sure the plastic wrapper is off the battery before installing the new battery “

Mine is doing 3 chirps and a new battery didn’t fix it. This might be it.

Hi Andrew, I have a similar problem except it's this: Brand new house, all new smoke detectors, all new batteries I put in myself. The detectors still chirp at random times during the day and terrify the crap out of my dog....what is the issue??

Mine did that because one alarm was trying to 'talk' to the other one! Disable the older one!

Going to order AA batteries. Thanks!

Thanks. The chirping drives me crazy

I guess I'm lucky. I have a 16 yr old house and one of 8 detectors caused a false alarm and once I hush it, it continued to beep even with a new battery. I never knew they had a life span. Looks like I squeezed a few extra years out of mine.

If you burn toast, its a pain

hi can u help me do a video review for 2021 new upgraded digital multimeter ,it is multi functional and like a cellphone,we can offer u a free product tks

This is a new smoke detector so I’m not buying a new one again. But it’s continually chirping. New 9vbattery just installed.

Mine is only 5 years old and still chirping

What about a 1-year old detector that keeps chirping with a new battery?

So, NO help with the CURRENT one that's chirping??? (per your headline!)

My smoke detector is only 2 yrs old. It has a new 8v battery.. it's clean..but it still chirps

Mine is just a year old and chirping with a new battery.

I've been aware of the ten year date issue since I purchased my first home in 1986. I put in 4 new "ten year" First Alert detectors three years ago in my current home. Two have failed since then with bad battery indicators and the batteries are not replaceable. The new First Alerts are just trash; typical Chinese manufacturing quality.

Hate the AA, don’t last as long as a 9v battery… have to replace batteries every few months it’s so annoying.

One of the worst products ever made next to printers.

Just replace it I guess?

There was only one chirping. I changed the batteries in 4 and now all four of them are chirping!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

this is stupid........I had change my battery but still beeping........

This is not help. This is basically a "You should replace your smoke detector with this one" video. I want a "help me figure out why is still chirping after i changed the battery and/or ive replaced the detector with a new one and it still chirping" video

41 dollars??? Rip....

Not helpful. I want to stop the chirping. No didn't clean the sensor. If that is an issue, that is an answer to the question and you don't cover it.

You told me nothing I didn't already know - my alarm is 4yrs old --- according to you it should be fixable----

Bait and switch.. just say advertising for new alarm 🤷

Without the dislike button idk if videos are bs like this one

misleading title

Does not work. Brand NEW smoke detector. Brand NEW battery. Cut power, removed from wall. Removed battery. Did this several times with alternative NEW batteries. Kept on chirping. Going psychoticDoes not work. Brand NEW smoke detector. Brand NEW battery. Cut power, removed from wall. Removed battery. Did this several times with alternative NEW batteries. Kept on chirping.
