have you checked the voltage at the keypads?its a basic question i know,as alarm guy said,it not make sense what you say about fitting old battery back in and your panel works,that would suggest to me ur new battery faulty ,but if you test it with the proper test unit ,u will know ,i i dont mean with a test meter,we use a unit that puts dummy load on battery ,it tells you if its good or bad
