Maybe a faulty used siren?.

Yes maybe it was faulty.. can I confirm that buying a different revision alarm wont cause any incompatibilty issues? The alarm I took out of my car has the code 1K0 951 605A and the one I tried to replace it with has the code 1K0 951 605C but that didnt work .. literally no sound.. Seller agreed for me to return it but I am not sure if I should buy another C or try find the A revision? The A revision is priced higher, nearly double the price and I dont want to take the risk if it wont work :( ...

What about the D revision? Would that work? :S cant see why that would work if the C revision didnt :( These different revisions are really doing my head in :(

Any one ???

Or check the fuse for the alarm

The fuse is working.. checked the continuity of the fuse using a multi meter and checked if the link between the prongs is broken which it is not. I believe it is fuse 35, 5a fuse in the fuse box next to driver? If so then it is not faulty. So should I buy another C revision or the D revision or should I keep looking out for a A revision?

:(

Thank you.

Yes. Its fuse 35.

I bought mine from here

That link doesnt say if it is compatible with my Golf MK5 2004 and if it is compatible with the A revision alarm as my old unit is A revision? :( im stuck as to if i shouls now get the C revision again and HOPE it works or go for the A revision?

[r5gtt]

If in doubt get the A as there are plentyout there.

I used a C on my mk1 tt and it worked fine so maybe the one you've got is faulty too?.

[RetroRaz]

A is the older version which i had, i changed it to a C and had no problems

Hmmm okay I made my decision.. I am going to buy another C revision and just cross my fingers it works.. yes maybe it was faulty as the seller agreed to a return straight away.. Just hope it works when I buy it .. I dont want to buy A revision because the problem will happen again and with C revision there is less chance. C revision it is! Thanks guys.

How about the D revision?

[r5gtt]

Why just get the A and stop you're messing around. The one you just linked is horrible.

[r5gtt]

I still think a 1K0 951 605C will work although must be working.
are you local to London lol

[hussnainh8]

I am in Peterborough aha .. I have just paid for another C revision
