carbon monoxide detector error code image
love
We have a fire and CO detector that I removed from the ceiling to paint it.
After I removed it I saw in tiny print to shut it off before removing. I really am not familiar with what it looks like off hand as I'm at work.
It is sensitive to the light being turned on and it goes off every time we turn the light on. It says warning, carbon monoxide levels are high, then it says carbon monoxide levels are 0 PPM and stops.
They are all new and all of them have gone off at least twice since moving in and only when the light is turned on. They go off within seconds.
How can I get this one to stop going off EVERY time? Like I said, I'm at work and not familiar off hand with what's on it. I'd hope there's some kind of reset button? Is it too close to the light? It's maybe 2-3 feet away from the light.
I'm sure I can figure it out eventually, but it's just weird to never have a problem this bad with it until now.

It's faulty, a light would not emit any co to trip it. If it is too near a furnace it could be tripped but a light would not do it.
As you say it is new take it back.
If it is a smoke detector a light would also not trip it, but if it is a heat detector it may if it's too close to one but the error code said co so that has nothing to do with the error.
I had one that went off when it should not have and when contacting the manufacturer they told me to unplug it and take the battery out for at least 10 seconds to reset it then put it back. It resets it. It worked. They also told me if it hadn't worked then the battery is faulty.
They told me that it does that if it has power failures too many times.
Give that a shot and if it doesn't rectify the situation replace it.
