Fitting New Alarm
skard:
Sorry, thought you mentioned you got a D to replace C (should ultimately be the same).
There is an option in VCDS to untick 'Siren installed' - has your siren ever worked? It could be the case a previous owner disabled it rather than replace it. A scan would let you test it and see if it's getting power and so on.

Looks like I will need to get it scanned then :( I don't have VCDS so will need to pay to get it done!
Owned the car 11 months today and in them 11 months it's never worked, I never checked it really.
I bought the D version from Germany then a local C version came up so got that too (Germany one still hasn't arrived)
VCDS time then :(

could be a problem with the wiring.

How would I check that?

Did you get this working as I have the same problem... Replaced the alarm siren to a 1K0 951 605C but it does not work. Opened my old alarm up and yes the batteries leaked acid but why doesnt the new one work??? Is it it faulty too?
