Okay...the smoke alarm in my room keeps beeping every 30 seconds. I just put a new battery in and it will not stop. I even took the battery out and just left it out for awhile and it still wouldn't stop. I don't know what to do, but I have to sleep tonight!!!

Hawkeye42,..
First,. the continuous beeping you here from your smoke detector, is because your batteries are going dead, the beeping is a reminder to inform you it is time to change the batteries.,.. But if you have installed new batteries , it is possible that you may have the poles crossed, you can also double check, poles (+)= + and(-)= - hope this helps,.. worse case you may need to replace detector, and if you need to sleep tonight just leave out the battery for the time being.

Sounds like you may need to replace the alarm. If it is still beeping without a battery, then it must be an electric alarm and could be shorted or grounded.

Press the reset button after you chaged the battery it should be the light or if there is a button press it and it will beep for like 3 secs

I had this problem and i changed the battery too and it still beeped and made me deaf, but after desperation set in I looked up the owner's manual online. i know this may sound wierd, but vacuum it. you may have dust on the sensor. I did this, and no more beeping.

Remember the Friend's episode when Pheobe had the same problem? LOL. She smashed hers with a hammer and it still wouldn't stop. Maybe you should check and see if it has a back-up battery.

Why did you have it in your room to begin with? Anyway here's what you do. Take the whole thing down and look for a troubleshooting guide and if that don't work then the whole thing is messed up and you should get a new one.
