If it was mine I would check it out by running some battery power through it as per the circuit diagram in the Repair Manual and if it did not work I would try and take it apart. These days this is easier said than done in some cases. When it was apart I would see if anything looked burnt or loose and if I was lucky fix it.

Most likely I would have to buy another one though, faults in these things are not often too obvious to see.

While I was at it I would check to see if power came through the wires at the siren when the alarm was triggered. You never know the alarm may not get the signal to sound.
