Default Alarm siren unit - just checking...

...that they can be removed, fettled (new battery I hope, unless it's leaked) and replaced without having to re-code, just plug it back in, and that there's no issues with the immobiliser kicking in?

...and that until removed I can pull the fuse to stop random sounding?

Is there a way that the two parts of the siren unit can be separated without having to saw/cut them apart? That's what I did last time, but in the back of my mind is the thought that I didn't have to do that next time!

TIA.

it's just a siren module so you can rip it out and motor along. The only fault will be only flashing lights when the alarm goes off - no sound

If I rip it out I may as well chuck it back in with a new battery tbh, assuming we've not had a leak.

I'm guessing that more people have climbed Everest than found Alarm fuse 8...
