Title: Power Sounder Battery Replacement.
Post by: Kev on 09 August 2006, 13:44:30
Can anyone supply instructions for power sounder battery replacement.

Now i've fixed the clicking door i'm compelled to hush the four chirps i get everytime i park up.

Makes it sound like i have one of those old Moss alarms fitted!   :-?

Find the power sounder (often under scuttle), crack it open, and see if you can get replacement batts (the place that used to sell them stopped doing them)

Is there any special procedure before disconnecting, other than ignition on then off?

Hopefully i'll be able to get replacements from RS Componets, they're usually quite good.

I think the battery is non standard.

To disconnect, switch on ignition, switch off and within 15s disconnect the car battery.

Of course, make sure you have all your radio codes first!

In Swindon...theres a shop called......wait for it.......The Battery Shop [smiley=laugh.gif]

They advertise that if they dont have it in stock...they'll make it....if they carnt make it...they'll order it...and if they carnt order it, you dont need it! Be a good test for 'em  ;D

Anyway.....they say they will deliver if the batt isnt too heavy

Heres their web site http://www.thebatteryshop.co.uk/

I went in there the other week looking for a rechargeable battery I'd taken outa of a solar powered security light.....they had one of those in stock....so i was impressed, tho im easily impressed  ;D

Maybe of some help to you :)

Power sounder is a seperate alarm that goes off if someone disconnects the main car battery.
If you have one, there should be a sticky stuck on the plastic that covers the rads, warning of power sounder fitted.

Its to try to stop someone trying to break in/nick your car and them trying to stop main alarm going off by disconnecting the main battery

HTH

I ordered two of these and decided not to use them. I sent them off to another member(egcc) and he said the batteries in his power sounder were different.

Yup. The ones I got had terminals on them and apparently his were just the flat, button type.
