    Sounds like the airline supplying the air cylinder that unlocks the turret has started leaking. I think the alarm will either be low air pressure or turret unclamp fault.
    An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.

    My brand new SL-10 had a similar problem. At a tool change a massive air leak could be heard from near the headstock. It turned out to be a faulty air regulator, the one that your supply air is connected to. They sent the part over night and had a tech install it the next day.

    We found tht the air line going to the turret was hitting the x axis drive motor when the turret indexed and it broke the line loose. The tech came in and changed out the fitting and reclocked the line so it would not hit the drive motor and we are up and running again.
    Thanks everyone
