i even have an older school clifford 600.
never had the point where the batt was completely down. never had issues like that though. you can unplug the power for it and see if that resets.

Alarms contain 'non-volatile' memory. I read that Clifford had that battery jump problem.
Alarm memory corruption. You gotta reset the alarm brain. |

Thanks guys, I am going to try that. This is driving me nuts!
I bet a thief would just laugh at how loud this thing is right now.

Unplugging the wire harness to the Clifford "brain" did not work. I am now leaning towards siren replacement.

Old school Clifford's were notorious for being ruined by jump starting. You should have pulled the fuse on it before jump starting. I've seen many of these become paperweights. Sounds like another one bites the dust.

*Update* Replaced the defective siren with a DEI 514N Softchirp siren. It didn't work at first, so I switched the wires around and it worked like a charm.
