Hi Guys,
having some trouble with an alarm on a 2005 t5. to start with it didnt sound, just the lights flashed when going off, changed the siren and repaired wiring at the siren and also under the seat. when the blink is activated for lock and unlock it will only flash on unlock, this is the same for the beep activation. if the alarm is set off (sticking hand through window or opening door) just the indicators flash, no siren. i've changed the setting for location on the siren from uk to rest of world, germany etc and no difference. when going through output tests siren sounds fine. thinking it was a duff convenience module i have just fitted another and this one seems to not have the alarm activated and cant figure out how to get into it to tell it its got an alarm.
just spent a few quid on erwin thinking there may be a login code for that module but nothing except hooking up genuine vw diagnostic.
the old unit, although looking ok inside had corroded terminals and did "crash" at one point requiring it to be unplugged and plugged back in to connect with it again so i think i would rather keep with the new module if possible.
any ideas? also, worth mention, its an ex-ambulance so has had all manor of bits fitted and removed.
