Alarm Problem





I have been experiencing problems with my ’03 Cup. The alarm goes off for no reason (usually 4am). I can’t reset or lock the car as the same happens. So I have to leave it unlocked with the boot ajar. The problem goes away and returns the following night.



Has anybody had this problem and did you find a solution?

Check the air vents are closed.

Best take it to a dealer though it sound like the typical interier sensors acting up sensitive the dealerships have a simple fix to swop a few wires round to lower the sensitivity of the alarm.

The only other thing it might be is a bad switch but the hyperactive sensors sound like a much more likly cause.
 


i had a similar problem in my cup, but i found a moth had got trapped in my car, it kept alarming for about 4 nights, then one night i went out and i noticed a small moth flew towards my light inside, i removed it and it never happened again

If it is the same as the alarm I had in my Dynamique you can switch the interior sensors off by turning the ignition on/off twice just before locking the car - might be worth a try to see if it stops it going off.
