I have a VXII (Series 2) Exec, and it has the factory fitted alarm system which beeps a horn under the bonnet (firewall area) if a door or boot or bonnet is opened without first pressing the key fob "unlock" button.
Issue I have is bonnet switch does not activate the alarm??? Alarm otherwise works fine. Tested the doors and boot and sound is great! I have taken switch off bonnet and noticed two wires are connected into it. Is this correct? Also changed switch with new one but this has not helped. Shouldn't the alarm horn sound if I pop the bonnet?
Any advise or fuse etc I should look into and why are there two wires connected to the switch with bridge connection? Also can you change horn for siren under the bonnet. Any brands woth looking into? Jaycar sell some good sirens but not sure which ones will work with existing system. Cheers all and thanks for your help.
