Not knowing what city you reside, I am sure you can find a local MasterGuard dealer to assit you. The fuse-link that you accidently knocked off can be reset provided the center of the fuse link is in tack. Dismount the heat detector and there should be a key like object attached to the back. Take the key and insert it into the hole and wind-up until you feel the tension. Holding the key and detector in one hand, take the other hand and snap on the fuse link. Once this is done remount the heat detector onto the fixed mount. You may contact MasterGuard at www.Masterguard.com and they will refer a local dealer to you.
