Apologies if this is in the wrong section but being a car alarm siren that makes noise i thought it be best to put it in the audio section.
Had weird alarm issues where siren made a strange noise: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjsqndhionU
took siren out of the car and checked it out and pics attached seem to be the source of the issue.
shockingly the alarm still makes its normal sound if i trigger it manually so speaker seems to be intact.
getting a replacement is gonna be next to impossible, its a Toad Ai606 which is no longer in production and cant see to find a replacement siren on ebay etc.
i suspect the battery leaked out and either the mosfets tried to keep charging the battery and burnt out or the battery acid shorted some stuff out.
is this gonna be fixable? im gonna run it without the battery so im guessing some parts of the circuit may not be needed if they are dedicated to battery charging?
iv put this up on few other forums for as much assistance as i can get. car is 28 years old and this alarm was fitted in 2002. surprisingly the caps look good. lol.
