I had a similar problem on my dads omega, I found the alarm horn under the scuttle the contacts were corroded and so it wasn't doing anything.

When sat in the car do the sensors pick up any movement when you lock and the light settles and starts to flash, only even though my dads alarm horn wasn't working I confirmed the sensors were due to a relay which started to click behind the glove box.

I believe there has been a scuttle removal guide started by Theolodian, The horn itself should be located on the drivers side under the scuttle.
