Alarm going bad

[cossie1600]

I recently tried to use my panic button to locate my car, but i noticed the car was barely making noise. I just want to know if others are having similar problems. What are the fixes for it?

thanks

I never had a problem with mine, I got a prestege alarm and remote start put in, and added to facotry alarm, but I notice it doesn't light up along with my prestege alarm anymore.

Let me guess. It's making a slight buzzing noise, and that's on a good day. If you'll open your hood while the alarm is going off you'll find that the buzzing noise is coming from this little diaphragmed/horn looking thing. I know that on mine and others that this "noise maker" will go bad. I'm guessing you can replace it with the normal horn that you'd get from Volvo but I wired it up to operate with air horns. Sort of breaks the monotony of your average car siren.

i just looked at the alarm, it looks like they are just weak from the factory, not as strong as the regular horns
