Alarm should also sound the internal sounder and flash the indicators so no horn there is not really indicative.

Sadly the original wheel was sold before noticing horn failure. Unexpectedly, horn sometimes works fine. At first I thought failure was due to wheel replacement problems. The RS wheel was purchased from Pumabuild and worked fine when fitted in my other car, with no horn problems. Believing the alarm uses the same horn I decided to try horn with the alarm. It was when trying it that I realised the alarm does not work (no sound, no indicators flashes) even when horn is ready again.It seems alarm does not work at all. I do not know if erratic horn failure is related to wheel replacement because I can’t say it worked well before. And I do not know if there is any linkage between horn and alarm problems. They might be different issues. That’s why I ask for help

if that doesn't work try doing the alarm check, you may need to search to find the post that covers how to trigger the check

During my search I have also found that 30 second time is needed between double-locking and trying inner door handle or bonnet. I was not aware of this issue, I will also try it.
Thank you ever so much

Now I have to find out what’s wrong with the AC: sometimes the air is only slightly cool or at the outside temperature (not hot and heating works ok). I will have to check the whole AC system, the dashboard temperature switch and the heating valve, I am afraid.
