306 cabrio alarm - ShereKhan
Hi,

I've just had one of my cooling fans replaced a few months ago and i've recently noticed that my alarm sounder doesn't sound.

The job was done by a garage who who had to take the front bumper off. I've briefly taken the cover under the nearside bumper.

I understand that the alarm sounder is under the nearside front bumper. I've had a quick look and I've noticed two horn sounders, I believe these are for the normal horn only.
I've checked the fuses.

I need to know where does the cables go from the alarm sounder as I can't seem to work out where the wiring disappears to.

Any help would be appreciated.

Doesn't your alarm have a key switch in the bonnet to disable the sounder? Mines does (1993 model). Check this is switched on first. I believe the alarm sounder is somewhere under the near side wheel arch.

Mine doesn't have this. Its 2000W model. The key switch was fitted in conjunction with keypad immobilser (Phase 1 models).

Phase 2 models and Phase 3 models have no key switch or key pad.
