Sounds like the alarm siren is failing. When they get moisture in them, the battery corrodes, and causes the indicators to occasionally do crazy stuff. They are available new and used. I cut mine open with a hacksaw, cleaned up the corrosion, and replaced the battery. It is a Varta, don't remember the voltage. Maybe 6V, as I seem to remember there being four cells in a stack.
