Beeping every 30 seconds

I've read all the threads about beeping, but they are no help to me. It's not a loud beep, but it's terribly annoying. I connected a new CO/propane detctor, and it still beeps. I completely disconnected the two batteries, and it still beeps. I think it's coming from inside the wall above the CO/propane detector, near the refrigerator. Thanks for any help you can give me. -Ted

There is also a smoke alarm. Have you checked that or changed the battery?

Have you checked the alarm feature, on your entertainment system?

If you disconnected to the two house batteries then it shouldn't be anything without a capacitor or battery.

My vote is for the smoke alarm battery. Since they are located on the ceiling, it's hard to figure out where the noise is coming from. Drove me crazy til the penny dropped and I figured it out.

When you say you disconnect the batteries did you remove the negative lead on the battery or shut the disconnect off? Reason I'm asking is there are items that are wired to be on even if you shut the battery disconnect off for safety, like the propane detector, brakes etc ..

I tried to guess what sort of RV you have and was unsuccessful.

That's probably the Trade in Beep, they installed those years ago to alert the owner it was time to Trade the unit in. Dont worry, it will turn off on its own when the value no longer helps you in the trade.

Probably right as we all know smoke and CO/LPG detectors only go off between 2:00AM and 3:00AM, interrupting some really great dreams[emoji16]

Or when you are 150 miles away.

You all are really funny! My guess is low battery since you replace the CO2 monitor. Is it the same beep as before you replaced the monitor? Maybe replacement part is defective.

Beeping

I changed my smoke detector the first trip for a ten year battery unit.
If I were you, I would have a authorized dealer check the carbon monoxide detector. You can even stop at a fire house and they will check for carbon monoxide.

Smoke detector

My smoke detector beeped even after changing the batteries, it had a 7 year life. Had to be replaced.

We changed out the door locks with the RVLOCK system and when the batteries started to die they beeped every once in a while, it was a very quiet beep but enough to drive me crazy. Do you have something aftermarket that could be the culprit?

Co/propane detector

Check the date on your CO/ Propane detector. It might be outdated and need to be replaced. Stranger things have been known to happen. Even though your unit is new, your detector might be out of date.
