Default Re: Instructions on how to replace alarm siren

Not at all, I just remember all the different things I had to move around when I purchased the new chirping siren and opened up the cowl (which HAD to be carefully placed back into their place of course). During that first opening of the cowl area, I also reinstalled the OEM siren in the engine compartment between the heat shield and the box with all the electronics (attached onto the compartment at the RCM location). Since that 'double siren' install (chirping under the cowl & non-chirping in engine compartment) I've replaced BOTH siren battery sets. The OEM was 2 small batteries soldered onto the PCB (which was partially corroded but successfully cleaned up, completely), the chirping siren was one modular battery plugged into the PCB. Both 'repairs' were an interesting repair that saved hundreds. When both are triggered, words cannot express the 'noise' (depending on the surroundings). Sometimes, projects do not go as planned but this one went superb!
