Default Re: installed new alarm siren and no chirp or alarm

Finished the job and thought I would try it while the engine hood is up and nothing, no chirp and armed with drivers window down and opened door no alarm.
Since I am not original owner I have to wonder if they had the random alarm and did something to disable the circuit. Checked all the fuses and they all look to be there.
Did the lights flash? They should flash even if the alarm does not sound.
They should also flash even if the chirp does not sound when unlocking or locking the doors etc.
