veritas 8compact - problem after re-connecting magnetic blocks?

I am having problems with chime function and setting my alarm system. (I have disconnected and re-connected blue wire on magnetic blocks for zone 5 which is my patio door, as I wanted to check what I will have to do when having a new patio door fitted, prior to the window firm coming to my property).

When trying to set part 1 program, zone 3 flashes (correct for this part setting program), but zone 5 light is lit-up but not flashing. I unset the system and checked to see if chime function for zone 5 is active, it is but the panel does not chime when I open the patio door. I have followed the user guide instruction on how to set a zone as chime, this has not worked. I have also tried to re-program part setting program 1 to just omit zone 3 - it seems to work on the setting-up which zones to omit, but when I then try to activate part setting program 1 zone 3 flashes and zone 5 remains constant lit light on the panel.

It is around 5 years since the panel was fitted.

Check that you have the wires back on the correct terminals in the magnetic contact.Zone 5 not flashing because the panel is not seeing the switch on this zone opening (look inside another contact if not sure where wires go).Also check that you have not disabled this zone in your panel programming options.
