      Ja ich weiß was da hilft einfach mal eine Hochhebebühne her bestellen und dann braucht man sich nur auf die Hebebühne zu stellen ach ja und vergiss nicht den Hammer mitzunehmen und dann fährt die Hebebühne hoch dann braucht man nur noch mit dem Hammer einmal mit aller Gewalt auf die solenoid boxen drauf zu hauen einfach nur ein Mal baaaam! baaaam! baaaam! und dann sollte sie problemlos funktionieren und wenn sie dann komplett kaputt ist tija dann würde ich Mal sagen ich bezahle sie nicht wieder neu oder besser gesagt ich kaufe euch keine neue weil ich hab's ja nicht selber kaputt gemacht und ich habe ja wenn dann nur den Trick rumm gegeben also das wird dann nur für einen von euch teuer und wenn ich teuer sage dann meine ich richtig teuer 👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈👿😈

    I've said this before, and I'll say it again: Sometimes, this siren sounds like it's trying to play "This old man." It sounds somewhat intentional. 1:43 - 2:10 Also, funny wind down. 2:33 sounds like a march time fire alarm on 2X speed.

    That Thunderbolt has seen way better days, as what the other comments say, this bolt has been having a lengthy list of problems, needs new solenoids, needs collector ring cleaning or replacement, and totally needs a new paint job just to name a few, if it cost a bit too much, it would be siren replacement.
