Most burglar alarm circuits are wired in series.
The circuit opens when the door or window
opens.  There are a few that are wired in parallel
but those are rare.

Red (+) goes to the plus terminal and black (-)
to the minus.  If the battery is older than five
years replace it.  They're cheap and readily
available at RatShak or online.  It's probably
a 12 Volt, 4.0 Amp Hour battery but replace it
with a 12 Volt, 7.0 Amp Hour model.  They
retail for about $15.
