It depends on the damage that the leaking battery has caused. If the PC-board is intact, a new battery can be fitted. You have to break into the module and seal it afterwards. You can get to it by removing the right front wheel, remove a few rivets so you can bend the liner. The module is fixed with a flat-headed bolt. You can (for example) make flat sides to it 'eg with a dremel tool) so you can grip it. Replace with a "normal" bolt. You can also disconnect the alarm module and leave it like that. In that case, seal the connector so the CAN-bus isn't compromized.
