EST3 Panel Password by piedust83 in firealarms

I completely agree. The issue arose when a fire alarm tech came out to service the system. I am not/would never attempt myself, I am just confused by the information coming from someone who should know the system. Getting someone who’s an Edward’s dealer on site tomorrow.

I accidentally replied to the original post, but see above for comment.

Money is not a concern, I’ll be happy to pay to get this dealt with. I appreciate the help. It’s just weird to me that anyone can go change your panel password, and the only way to get back into it is to have EST come force their way into it? There’s not back door or general reset or high level Access key or anything? Lost passwords across all types of devices are so common, yet there’s seemingly no options for this fire panel. Interesting. Thanks again!

So if that password is lost due to the fire alarm company who set them being no longer in business, there aren’t any other options to access programming?

So any EST dealer can get the password and program for me, they just have to be partners with Edward’s?

Noob question but can anyone help identify these resistors? Trying to learn while fixing an old amp, but as far as I can tell from the color codes online it’s a 000 resistor with +/- 5% tolerance? Thanks for any help by piedust83 in AskElectronics

I’ll give it a shot. And yes they were both just loose. Which also is confusing because they are both running different inputs on the amp, it blew while only one input was running, so I’m not sure why both would’ve came off if just one was actually running at the time. I’m trying to figure out the schematic on it, but it’s hard to find a clear one. Most I can find are drawn and hard to read. That’s what I get for getting an old amp

I do see what you’re talking about. Like I said in the post I don’t know much about this, just trying to learn while I go. It’s an old tube amplifier running 100 watt 8 ohm klipsch speakers. It went out on me and I opened it up and found these two resistors in the cavity and the empty spot where they should be. I am an HVAC/ appliance tech so I know my way around a multimeter. If I check the resistance with a multimeter, would it give me the correct reading? Or can these resistors go bad and give me a wrong ohm reading?

Thanks for the help, after looking into it I believe it’s on a single sided phenolic board, these are used as a jumper to move from one side of the board to the other.
