I currenty have a USI-1208 model detector. Will this unit plug in correctly and fit in the bracket or will I need to replace one or both?

I have only replaced a particular unit with the same unit. You know--oranges with oranges. I cannot answer what happens when you try to replace a particular unit with a different unit since I have not done that.

It is in the install instructions. If u don't have them try google. It is all about moving te sensing unit to the right or left.

Remove the detector from the wall. At the bottom of the detector their is a square tab. Press that and pull the detector out at the bottom. Lift up until the unit disengages from the base. You will then see the battery. To reinsert install top first then rotate the bottom towards the bracket until it snaps back into place. On mine there is no screw to remove.

I don't know if it will be a direct replacement, but I do know that it worked for my replacement of a US Automatics gate receiver. You may have to work a bit to figure out the wiring, but as long as you are running off of 12vdc, that's a good start. All I had to do was remove the old receiver, fit this one into place (the holes did not line up correctly but I did not expect them to) and even used the old BNC antenna cable and antenna.It did take a bit to figure out the other wires (would have taken less time if I had read the original gate opener instructions.Good luck!

Both sensors are the same part number. You either replaced the wrong sensor, both are bad, or you have an electrical issue.

I used mine to replace Firex detectors manufactured in January 2003 without difficulty. For the definitive answer, I would e-mail Kidde tech support (from their website) with your model number and date code and honor their response. My expectation is that compatibility is model specific, not date specific.

I would have to say no, due to the bracket configuration. I ended up installing mine where the detector site right under my mirror.

If you are using this as a replacement for the same/similar model, no issues.I am not sure what your question is regarding the pack size.Do you need one or 2 Smoke Detectors?

If you're replacing one, it's something you'll probably just need a screwdriver for. Just don't touch any bare wires together that aren't already touching. It won't hurt, but could set off your alarm. I'm not sure if it works with all systems, but it worked well with ours.

I replaced my original that was damaged and it looks just like the one that was on the truck. I did have to use the old brackets because I have the towing package.I believe the sensor hole is for an optional back up alarm.

Hi. Everything is custom made to match your detector & vehicle, so I am sure they have something that will work for you if this 1doesnt fit properly.

In my situation, the unit plugged into the existing hardware system with no problem or modification. If it does not as in your case, I would look carefully at the directions or call the manufacturer.

I am not sure what model of First Alert my old one were and I have since recycled them. My old and new models have the identical quick connect plug. I did not have to do anything but replace the base mounting ring and plug in the new unit.

I answered this several weeks ago, and I just checked the site and for some reason Amazon didn't post it; their bad! All of my smoke alarms were hard wired as per code. But if the 9v back up battery in one died, all of the alarms went off; I was up all night one night. Anyway, my old ones were not Kidde, but the Kidde replacements fit perfectly.Go to: www.kidde.com and find their Customer Support 800 #. They were very helpful when I called them. Good luck, and I am sorry my first answer was not posted; I have no idea what happened. navydoc

You are better off replacing both and this kit will do it. I had the same issue in which I only needed one. But you are hard pressed to find just one sensor that will work. Save yourself the headache and use a kit.

I suggest you call Brian at Pioneer, he was very helpful when I installed my unit.
