Your car is bleeping to let you know that the back up battery in your power sounder (ALARM) is going flat, You will need a new power sounder.

ok maybe its because I am female, the garages think they can tell me anything. So I need to tell them its the "sounder" thats gone and that it needs replacing. Does that have the battery included in it.
