The siren and the tilt alarm sensor together comprise a single unit. This is linked to the DWA control unit via a local data
bus.
To ensure that the siren works regardless of the vehicle battery, it has its own batteries (emergency-current horn). The
batteries are not rechargeable (service life: minimum approx. 10 years or 300 self-sufficient alarm activations).
The siren has a loudspeaker with a frequency range of 1900 to 2800 Hz.
How it works
A built-in microprocessor controls the functions of the siren and the tilt alarm sensor.
The siren has its own power supply and also monitors the power supply from the vehicle battery. This means that it is still
possible for an acoustic alarm to be emitted if the power cable to the siren has been tampered with.
In addition, the siren monitors the earth lead and the local data bus. The siren will also trigger the alarm if these wires are
cut through.
That's why we try to disable the alarm system to isolate where is the root of cause first.

I think it will be safe just to look the doors and not turn on the alarm system, they will not nick you car.
If they do then you get a new car and problem fixed
