No alarm sounder
Left my bonnet open and locked the doors because I wanted to test the alarm, pressed the bonnet sensor, and no sound to be heard. The indicators go off fine but there's no sound. Anyone know what would cause it? And where I'd find the alarm sounder?

Alarm sounder is next to the pollen filter in the plenum.

Do you have an alarm horn, or a BBUS?
If it's a horn, it's probably seized up due to no use. It'd need replacing.

Does the alarm LED flash when the car is locked?
It may be that the alarm has been disabled at some time on T4 in the options menu due to either a mistake or if the alarm has been triggering for no apparent reason If this is the case the alarm sounder will not work without being enabled again. Russ

the key fob LED blinks once, then pauses, then blinks repeatedly. I have no idea what that means, or whether that's just because im not within range of the car at this second.
