Consulting your user guide is a good starting place for determining if you need to change your battery emergency light in your home security system. If the battery is not the cause there may be other trouble shooting tips located in the manual.
alarm company says to change yearly
By disconnecting the battery.
Guess you'll need a relay. Hook it too the battery for 12V.
That depends on what brand alarm system you have. If it is a hardwired alarm system and you have never lost power to your home, it should last five years. If it is a wireless system or if you have lost power a few times then its about three years. Most battery backups are hard wired meaning they do not require changing. You can verify your type and when to change them with the system manufacturer.
I would take it to either the dealer or a shucks/autozone asap to have the battery/alternator checked. You could have a open wire, or an alternator problem. Once the battery gets really low you will not be able to turn off the security system and you will have to have it towed to the dealer to have a new battery and the system reprogrammed. You will not be able to jump start the jeep because the security system will not disengage if the battery is dead FYI, I tried that it didnt work.
Low battery or power surge
The only method of disarming the security system is thru the door locks, if it does not disarm; this will entail a fault in the security system. First, the vehicle battery will have to be tested, a low, or shorted battery can trigger the security as well. If the battery is good, the sytem will need electrical diagnosis, which I recommend be done at the dealer, since they are more familiar with this vehicle's security system, than most independent facilities are.
If I was you I would disconnect the battery.
For a home security alarm system, check out Smith Monitoring Security System. It costs $17.95 a month and is currently offering free installation and activation. They also provide a free back up battery.
Having a computer security system is very important to protect one's computer from unauthorized access, change or destruction. The best security system is to change one's passwords on a regular basis.
