993 factory alarm question

[kilodawg]

I've posted to Rennlist on this too topic but I thought I'd give it a try here as well.

I have been chasing some gremlins in my alarm system and while ultimately I will probably need a new ACM I think at least some of my problems are not related to a faulty box.

So first, I can get the alarm to set but the claxton or alarm horn doesn't sound when tripped or set. The door flashers beep appropriately and the parking light and tail lights flash when it's tripped but no audible alarm. Is there a fuse or relay in the circuit somewhere? The alarm used to work so I don't think it's disconnected.....

Finally, setting the alarm with the remote is an intermittent thing. Sometimes I have to press the button on the fob several times to get the doors to lock and the alarm to set. Sometimes it doesn't happen until 30 to 45 seconds later. Is this symptomatic of anything other than a bad ACM

Anybody????
