Honestly I am so bloody baffled by this.

I removed the smoke alarm that would be affected by vibration from the loft floor (which was in the room directly underneath), but the other alarms still go off when someone walks up there (they’re all wired together, so when one goes off they all go off). I removed the one that’s in the loft too, but it still happens.

I have no fecking idea what else to do 😅 should we go in under the loft floor to have a look, or into the ceiling underneath the loft floor? Any suggestions for what to look for? Should I be concerned that vibration is affecting wiring? Is it spooky ghosts?

    What u/JoBo said.

    I’d look at your wiring. My first thought is there is a short being crated as you walk over that area. It is pressing the wires together

    And to be honest I really can’t think of anything else.

    Yes I’d look at the floor in the loft. I’d also guess that’s easier than taking apart the ceiling.

    I’d also poke in and around the wiring harness for the alarm
