Both seem to be the same part number?

 

VCDS should tell you your current part number.

 

For example my FL has 1K8 951 605 B fitted which looks to have been superseded by 1K0 951 605 C, matching both the aliexpress links you posted.

Many thanks 

The problem is the hazard lights are flashing when the alarm goes off but not the siren 

I think Skoda recommend replacement @ six years  @£160 approx  ouch    you could try replacing the internal battery   mines on 8yrs fingers crossed

Never had this problem before with any of my other Octavia’s

Most likely is the siren unit. Battery may have leaked and taken out pcb components. Mine in a mark 5 golf went at 6.5 years. I replaced mine last year in the oct 2 FL at 6 years. It was still operating though.

Exact same issue I had mate. The siren posted in your first link is the one I ordered. I guarantee replacing it will solve your problem. My mechanic mate did it for me and only charged me £30. Took less than an hour.

 

Do you know the procedure to replace it. Don't ffs pay over the odds to get it replaced. It really is a simple job. Hope you get it sorted mate we all need to protect our pride & joy eh.

im going out of the country for a week so will have to remove the alarm fuse when the cars parked at the long stay

car park at the airport. Can’t come back to a dead car battery and having to call out the RAC to jump start me,

All fixed now. Brought a siren from aliexpess .fitted it Saturday now no false alarm going off in the middle of the night .

so hopefully that’s another job done 

thanks everyone for your help   

I have fitted a new Siren to my car and although my alarm doesn't seem to go straight off now it is still going off after a few hours. Can anyone advise? and if I can use VCDS to find out alarm event activation can someone point me in the right direction of where to look?
My alarm is really becoming the bane in my life. 

thanks for any help
