Smoke alarm

This must be an easy fix but I am at a lost. Pulled our 2016 Navion Itasca out of storage to load up for our trip to Colorado and the smoke alarm is beeping every 20 seconds or so. I have replaced the 9v several times. It is hardwired with battery backup. No brand name that I can see anywhere. Reset circuit breakers. Still beeping. Any ideas?. Please.

  • I think I will buy a 9v one at big box until I get this one replaced. To disconnect from RV power do I cut the red wire?
  • Sounds like it bit the dust. To silence, I have used one of the little elastic bowl covers or put plastic wrap on it. Not very safety wise... just what I have done .
  • Remove backup battery and disconnect RV power. Not recommended unless you go to a big box store and buy 9v one for now.
  • Not what I wanted to hear the day before a trip. Any way to silence it until I get it replaced?
