Hey, thanks for the answer! Your experience sounds really similar to what's going on with my car. Can you remember exactly how much it cost you? And has anything else come up since then or is everything running smoothly now? I'd be really interested!

Hey, no problem, always happy to help! It cost me €235 to repair the defective contacts in the siren - not cheap fun, but what wouldn't you do for a bit of safety, right? Since then, everything has been working perfectly. The auxiliary battery for the anti-theft alarm system was replaced, as you suspected, and I haven't had any problems since. Keep your fingers crossed that everything goes just as smoothly with your Peugeot!

Wow, that sounds like quite a number, but I guess it is. Safety first, you're absolutely right! I'll ask my mechanic about it and hope it goes as smoothly for me as it did for you. Thanks again for the tips and for sharing your experiences. It really helps me! Maybe I'll get back to you when everything is repaired. See you then!

Hello, I can well understand your frustration. I recently experienced a similar case with my 2018 Peugeot Expert Diesel. It turned out that the battery contacts in my siren were faulty. Yes, it can definitely be considered a serious problem. This was because the contacts were corroded and therefore the siren could no longer be supplied with power properly, which led to the unpredictable behavior of my alarm system. My garage had to clean the contaminated contacts in the anti-theft alarm system and in some cases even replace the entire battery. Cable failures could also be involved, so it's wise that you get it checked as soon as possible. Hope this helps you!
