Value won't change when a part is touched?

I'm trying to make a door that'll sound an alarm when It's touched, but only for non-group members. Whenever you walk through it nothing happens at all; nothing pops up in the output either. I also have a button that will play the sound when clicked, but only when the value is false, and if it is true, it'll stop the sound. Here's my script:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
local Rank =  Player:GetRankInGroup(3738720)

local debounce = false

local Assets = script.Parent.Assets

local Scan = Assets.Scan
local Hum = Assets.Hum
local Alarm = Assets.Alarm

local Light1 = script.Parent.Light1
local Light2 = script.Parent.Light2
local Light3 = script.Parent.Light3

local Scanner = script.Parent.Scanner

local Enabled = Assets.Enabled

local Disabler = script.Parent.Disable.ClickDetector

Alarm.Parent = workspace

Disabler.MouseClick:Connect(function()
    Enabled = false
end)

Disabler.MouseClick:Connect(function()
    if Enabled == false then
        Enabled = true
    end
end)

Scanner.Touched:Connect(function()
    if debounce == false then
        debounce = true
        Scan:Play()
        wait(.6)
        if Rank >= 1 then
            Enabled = true
            Enabled.Changed:Connect(function()

            if Enabled == true then
            workspace.Alarm:Play()
            print("True")

            if Enabled == false then
            workspace.Alarm:Stop()
            print("False")

            end
            end
            debounce = false
        end)
        end
    end
end)
end)

Thanks if you can help me out, it would help!

The reason that this isn't work because Touched doesn't have any input. It needs at least one.

I think this is a fix. The problem is in between lines 34 and 58.

Scanner.Touched:connect(function(hit)
    if  debounce == false then
        if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
            if hit.Parent.Name == Player.Name then
                if Rank <= 1 then
                    Enabled = true
                    Enabled.Changed:connect(function(val)
                        if Enabled == true then
                            workspace.Alarm:Play()
                            print("true")
                        end
                        if Enabled == false then
                            workspace.Alarm:Stop()
                            print("false")
                        end
                        Debounce = false
                    end)
                end
            end
        end
    end
end)
end)

There is most likely a way to shorten this. If this does not work, I apologize.
