Thanks Al, did the cam cover on that side last week, gave it a good clean down but still had a little smoke out this morning. Must keep my eye on that as up to Scotland in the morning :-\

You could argue that the Powersounder is 'sort of in' the wing as well.

Where/how did you get your batteries refurbed, please? I know the usual thing is to just pull the wires / bin it altogether.  :y

Nowt to do with the power sounder at all .. that is a function of the normal alarm.

Powersounder and normal alarm are two separate and discrete units that work very differently.

The ONLY thing the powersounder does is to monitor for disconnection of the main battery, as this would prevent the normal alarm sounding.

Define " normal alarm " bearing in mind that i know full well that the horn alarm that sits next to the power sounder is not functioning, and that the only part of the alarm system making any noise AT ALL on my car, is the power sounder. That is to say, that if I remove the power sounder and trip the alarm, the indictors all flash as normal, but the car makes no noise whatsoever.

Perhaps you'd explain that to me....? Mr Entwood!

Well, my power-sounder fires along with the horn in a normal alarm trigger.......

An abnormal trigger is when the power supply (car battery) is disconnected in which case only the powersounder fires.... obviously!

Actually, I think some people need to get their facts right before jumping in with both boots. ;)
