Sorry i can't help you
But i just installed a aftermarket alarm..Siren is not that loud...Was thinking connecting a police siren or something of that nature

Hi there is it factory alarm or aftermarket could be the siren not getting a good earth, no rags stuffed in it is there as i have done that in the past to quieten them down when testing them ,you could always get another one from electrical store jaycar dicksmith etc.

hey mate some also come with a key to turn the siren down/off see if you have a funny shaped key on the keys,if not sirens are cheap as chips.

If i were you i would open it up and disable the key swicth.....Maybe just me but if somethings not working i like to open the internals and see if i can fix it..
Or if its a well know brand maybe you can just buy the siren with new key??
