Is your alarm working properly if not, check fuse 8 @ rear SAM (trunk) fine, move on to siren unit (replacement part # 1718205326, 0048201926, or 1718202526).

Alarm working fine, definitive diagnose have someone pull fault codes using MB DAS. Reluctant to have fault codes pulled, you can check antenna amplifier first (2118200689).

See attachments.
