I have just installed the powerhouse and it seems to work well, but I just activated the alarm to test it, and though it went off I can not get the sec. lights to turn off or the horn to turn back on any help would be great
thank you

Could you describe your setup in more details.
Maybe what added modules you have and the addresses they are set to.
Did all the modules respond on the test trigger and now not responding?

I am now getting an error on one of my doors i can bypass it and set the alrm but my horn wont work, and I check the door and everything is fine, opening and closing it sets off he door chime

Mehtevas if you referring to the compact power horn which plugs in separately it may be defective!
I just received mine last weekend and have yet to get mine to fire with anything!
I just emailed support so we'll see what they have to say! ;)

If you have a manual controller or a way to send X10 On Off signals. Sending an On Off cycle at about 1 second intervals; on the powerhorns address. Should trigger it in about 4 cycles and it should continue for a few seconds after the cycle stops.

If this is the first X10 product in your home, you need to start off with the basics in my MAP / MEASURE / CORRECT LINK (see the FAQ).
Until you determine if your house is full of NOISE GENERATORS and/or SIGNAL SUCKERS, troubleshooting any X10 problem will be "Hit-or-Miss"...
