2)jump start a car, battery spark a bit.

There is no volume adjustment. Is your siren facing downward? Water puddled inside? After it dries out hopefully the sound will go back to normal. If not you will probably have to pick yourself up a new one.

Check the sirens inner cone to make sure it is not full of water, if it is, dumping it will normally fix the problem, if the siren can not be remounted so the cones, inner/outer, do not hold water, drill a small hole, [1/8" or so] in the end of the inner cone and reinstall the siren the way it was. 94
