mine stopped working in my car when i had a badly fitted radio, im not sure what wires it was taking feeds from but it stopped the buzzer from working.

now i have a better one ( setup almost correcty)

both the +12v and the +12vS running off the same line now the buzzer works.

i keep meaning to put the switched live on the right cable just never get round to it.

perhaps the little button on the door has jammed in? just a thaught. does your interior light still come on and off when the door is opened?

it's part of the dash IIRC according to the haynes, so hard to fix, perhaps get another buzzer separately installed?

mine stopped working, but then came back to life?!
