Larry's 100% spot on. Further, I would add that even a siren rebuild is a waste for many of us given the age of the vehicle, etc. While we can usually guess about these things without a tech 2, I guessed wrong and happened to fall in the ~2% or whatever of cases where the siren wasn't bad. My car is a new-to-me 2000 wagon with 150K miles, so I thought it was a sure bet that the siren needed a rebuild, but the problem is apparently elsewhere in my system. I sent it back to BBA twice and they gave me different units too-didn't solve the problem. Still get bogus alarm going off. For now I've pulled the siren and just clear the SID. Eventually I will have the dealer disable the alarm entirely.
