Faulty Alarm.

[chester91]

I'm currently having problems with my H-line neo alarm. There is no more sound when I unlock & lock the car or if i press the panic button on the remote. I'm sure the alarm system is still working as the doors lock n open like normal. The turn indicators also blink as normal when I unlock & lock the car. So i'm assuming that the siren is faulty.

My question is, would it be possible to just change the siren alone & how much would it cost? I tried looking for the siren but could not find it in the engine bay. Could someone tell me where is it or even better show me with the aid of diagram. I was also unable to locate the fuse for the siren in the fuse box.

yup changing the siren alone is possible and its definitely related to ur siren.

could either be wire loose/disconnected...normally the siren should be in the engine bay...ill try and see if i can get a pic for you. i had an siren go bust after heavy rain, somehow rain got in, after a few days it started working again.

My alarm has failed as well. I can no longer lock/unlock remotely. Have to use key. :(

In the end installed an aftermarket one.

I have check every inch that my eye can see already. I even took out the cover under the wiper out hoping to find it in there.. My siren had used to stop working randomly.. now its totally dead.

AD_EG i do hope u can get a pic for me. that would be so useful. Would prefer to DIY rather then send to a shop..

it could be some where on the front grille to the side.. thats where the horn is.. so it could be sumwhere there.. the price of a new siren is affordable.. 50-60 last time i checked.. cheaper if go for made in china ones which looks really basic..

Perhaps the siren fuse is located BEHIND the glove compartment.
Careful when removing the glovebox, u may wanna be gentle with it..and also u're gonna need a Phillips screw driver to unscrew the box's damper.

Just a long shot.

Some Neo owners reported in the past that they can 'silence' the alarm system by pressing both the 'Lock/Unlock' and 'Panic' button on the key at the same time, for a period of 5-7 seconds. One even demonstrated it to me (unfortunately, my car doesn't have this feature).

I tried!

then alarm went off..then captor called LOL
so i didnt want to try anymore. hahahah :)

 

[chester91]

tried that. it doesnt work.. the acc shop guy could not locate the siren.. and as it was a weekend, proton was closed so he could not ask his proton friend either.. damn.. just wondering.. are any one of u having problems with your hud dimmer? my is faulty and i have to hit it a few times to get it working again... is it possible to cut the dimmer and bypass it? If i rmb correctly only the h-line and m-line neo has a dimmer. B-line does not. so i shud b able to cut it right?

 

[crazykatak]

M-Line never had dimmer. only H-Lines
