hi i have a plain white standard bell box with blue strobe and red LED blinking light
the problem is the LED has stopped blinking so i've come to the conclusion that the bell box battery is dead.
if so i'd like to replace it but not sure how
connect the sounder to the a twelve volt supply observe the polarity,this will see if sounder ok,with what you say there is no is no s.a.b in bell box,so you have a very vurnerable system,

i've just opened up the bell box for first time
very basic just a horn and wiring to strobe and led no battery and no tamper springs which i found odd
wiring seems ok. so i'll have get hold of some testers
thanks anyway

All depends how its wired but sounds like a wiring problem.
You have no testers, so how do you expect to trace the problem.

If the power has been lost to the sounder, then there should be a tamper on the panel and the sounder SAB module should be ringing.
So you have more than one problem!

the led is not fed from the battery,check that you have 12 volts going to the bell box,
