alarm problems
« on: September 06, 2013, 01:45:18 pm »
Hi guys
I have a bit of a problem with regards to my alarm i.e. the siren doesn't go off
I was told that the cem(I think that's what it's called controller that 'controls' the alarm)
was faulty changed that but still no sound
so I changed the siren (just about blew my ears off fitting it  :happy2:)
but now nothing no sound but the alarm does set off the indicators once tripped
any ideas??

Cheers

Was it a new siren you put on? I have replaced a couple in my time, the internal battery for it either stops holding charge or bursts. If it was a used one it could have died again.

You can check with VCDS whether it communicates with the sounder, and find whatever is stopping it from sounding.
