Water In My Alarm Siren!

[EARMUFF]

Hey guys. My idiot neighbour is a car detailer. I let him do my car and he was cleaning the engine bay and got water into my alarm siren. It's a mongoose m80am. It's making a weird sound so I turned it off. If it dries, will it be alrite, or do I hav to replace it??

dpends how wet he got it. usual thing is to pull it apart and hit it with a hair dryer.

Did it to mine and yeah after a bit of driving dried up and is fine.

hmm, ok guess he forgot the plastic bag over it..lol

should dry ok, unless some objects or chemicals got inside it, or a blast of water got in, then it might be time for a new one but doubt it.

Take it apart mate not hard clean out all the water as it might have got into the electrics and start to cause problems later on

How do you turn the alarm back on? Im having same problem and my alarm sound doesnt work anymore, my brother disconnected the battery to stop the alarm but when he connected the battery back up the siren smoked a little

Immobiliser still works but alarm siren doesnt work anymore

There's a battery in there. Shit has probably already gotten weird inside.
