Continual Siren Failure on Dodge Charger

We have had the siren fail at least three times on a 2007 Charger. I am told that it has to do with the factory connection module that they have replaced. Is there a way to bypass this? I am assuming it has to do with the park kill function. We are using TM4's as a controller. Is there a simple way to bypass this?

When you say that the factory module has failed, are you refering to the actual part that's from Dodge or from an aftermarket interface module?

I met with the local representatives from Dodge this week. It seems that the factory 24 pin accessory module that controls the park/kill headlight flashing and rear light flashing and other features in the 2008 module are experiencing some failures. This is a factory problem and not a problem with an add on module problem, such as the Whelen product. Dodge will be looking at a fix. In the mean time if you disconnect the battery, wait ten seconds, then connect it back it will reset the module and it will work again. Unfortunately there is no telling when it will fail again, thus if you use the park kill for your siren that could cause problems during a code three response.
