so is the alarm fine and just the horn died or what?
that circuit board is from the horn itself? is the horn specific to the alarm (ie, it does not use the standard car horn, but a seperate one)? __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles

Probably the ground on the horn. US versions at least have it sitting in a place where it gets pretty wet.
You can pull the wires and stick a 9v to it to see if you get sound. It's just a really big piezoelectric buzzer. __________________

Alarm horn and car horn are seperate items,bench tested alarm horn no chriping something must be shorted out on cicurit board.All the other parts of alarm system is working (ie door locks, dead bolts).
