Just realised that my alarm siren is not working in my CL9 Executive. I only found out when i locked my wife in the car for a joke. The ultrasonic sensor must have worked because the lights started flashing but no siren noise. Where do i start looking for the siren?

Thanks pepster. Just tried what you said. The alarm sounded when i opened the door from inside the car, but I think that maybe the ultrasonic sensor is not working. I looked myself in the car flapping my arms like a bird, but the siren didn't go off as usual.
Any more suggestions.

Thanks, will check in the morning. I'm wondering if this has anything to do with my troublesome satnav. I'm sending the DVD drive off for repair next week because it does'nt like to work on moist mornings,and now the disc won't eject. Off to Alpine for £179 repair bill!
