    Hi there, I hope someone out there can help me, I was just trying to replace the battery on the 360 and the alarm continues to go off. I have turned the knob in the trunk for a hard reset to no avail. The remotes don't seem to have any effect to the siren. The fobs work like usual, doors lock and immobolisor works. I am able to start the car and drive but the siren just won't go off unless I unplug the main battery. Any help please?

    Thanks.

    The batteries w/in the alarm have gone bad.

    You'll have to remove the unit to stop it from beeping. It's in the front bonnet.

    Send me an e-mail address and I'll send you a dissertation on it.

    Thanks for the help guys. I was driving to the dealership when all of a sudden the siren turned off. So I headed back home. I drove it again today and noticed that the alarm is now not making a chirping noise and agree with Greg that the batteries for this unit have gone bad. I will disassemble it when I have time.

    If it is behaving that strangly I would not be surprised if the batteries had leaked and destroyed the circuit board. Not too serious, you just have to get a new siren for a few 100.
