  • Alarm problems.

    First of all Happy Christmas!

    I've noticed since my rear screen was replaced that my alarm is going off randomly.

    Are there any things I should check out before throwing it at a stealer?

    I would check/clean/replace the bonnet switch first as this appears to be the worst offender when it comes to alarm issues on our coupes

      To diagnose the bonnet switch you can just disconnect it. If the random alarms stop then it's the switch, if not then it's something else.

      Just a thought as you've had the rear screen replaced. Is the car still watertight and dry? If water is getting in to the rear then it tends to collect where the alarm tilt sensor is in the back (just aft of the lh rear wheel arch)

        Awesome. It's watertight but the wiper has given up the ghost due no doubt to the loom splitting.

        I'll disconnect the bonnet switch tomorrow and see how it goes.

        Thanks
