Forester Security Upgrade - Siren Not Working

I installed the "Security Upgrade Kit" in my 2003 Forester, and all seems well, with one exception...

One of the items of the kit is a siren, mounted under the hood. When I arm the system, and open a door with the key, the horn honks like crazy, lights flash, but no siren.

I always disarm the system immediately, so maybe the siren doesn't cut in for a few seconds? Or maybe it doesn't work at all???

How is the siren supposed to fit in with the security system?

My security upgrade kit for my 03 Legacy didn't include a siren, but another horn that mounted to the a/c condenser. Try opening your hood, arming the system, and then open a door -(with adequate ear protection!) check and see if the new alarm horn/siren is working. There is no delay on the alarm horn.
