Default How to disable the alarm Siren

Yesterday at the drift day my car developed a fault, the clever people there, SteNova and t11ner (steve) got me going again but partially suspected my alarm was the cause. Steve rigged up a bypass of a couple of relays in the car with a crocodile clip, and he suggested that even if I turn the engine off it may drain the battery, guess who didn't take the clip off, and guess what happened to my battery?

So, my alarm was going off last night, so I undid the croc clip but my battery is so low now until I get to charge it up I am worried the alarm may go off all night tonight. So I would like a description of how to disable the siren, I need to know where the siren is located, how to access it and which wires to remove please, I hope someone can help I did a search at 1.30am while my alarm was going off so couldn't find the details only references to low batteries etc.

So, I need written instructions on how to disable the siren please, preferrably with pics ta.

looking at the wiring diagrams now, and there is an inertia switch on KG & KE, there are mentions of it on the forum but no pics!

paul can you tell us what colour the 2 wires we fed power to were?

It looks like 5 and 8 from your list, not totally positive but I think so.
