Factory Alarm trouble

My car was hit in the front passenger side near the head light. There isn't a big dent, but my alarm does not chirp anymore. It just flashes. It does alarm but the siren does not work. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance

damn i didnt know my alarm was supposed to make noise. ive never had one. i just thought it had a silent alarm like banks and shit have.


















j/k on that silent alarm joke. but mine has never worked. been meaning to take it to the sound shop to have it fixed.

i think on the remote.. if u hold the trunk and unlock buttons for 3secs youll see the light go off.. then try to lock/unlock the car i think that turns on/off the churp on our alarms too..

did that to no avail. but see even if my hood is open there is no light inside the car to let me know if its closed or not. then someone told me that my siren may be bad. i checked both of the ones in the front and they both sound when i honk my horn.

If the hoodpin were broken, the siren would chirp 3 times indicating an open hood. Either the siren wires are split or the siren was demolished.
