Thanks for the quick reply. Where exactly is the siren located? And did the error message specify anything more than just 'siren communication fault'?

Yes, the error message was very generic, just a communication fault. The siren itself is usually located within the wheel arch area, or under the hood near the windshield. However, I recommend you have the workshop check it properly to perform the alarm reset after the fixing the connection to ensure proper vehicle security.

The workshop found a faulty plug connection as suspected. They repaired it, and the siren communication fault is resolved. The final bill was around 95€. Thanks for your help!

I had a similar issue with my Formentor's alarm system. Check the wiring harness and connectors near the siren. Corrosion or loose connections are common culprits. Fault detection can be a pain. Has the alarm system functionality returned since you cleared the error?
