Default Alarm Issue

My alarm keeps going off randomly all by itself.

I did locate the box where you adjust sensitivity but:

does anybody know what ZONE1 and ZONE2 are covering so I know what im adjusting? Also which way is what? is counterclockwise less sensitive or vice versa?

You probably have the bump sensitivity set too high. This means every time a cat jumps on your car or it rains, the alarm signals.

If you have a sonar alarm with multiple zones, then it will go off frequently. I have one of these and only turn on the zones when I'm parked somewhere shifty (not my driveway).

Your alarm may be different, but my Clifford alarm makes it very easy (2 seconds) to enable and disable the sonar zones.

actually as fas as im concerned I cant turn on zones or such thing like that
what i do know is that there is a box under the steering column that says ZONE1 AND ZONE2 and you can either turn counterclockwise or clockwise.

and I asked HONDA who makes it and how it works. and the only thing they said was that it is an aftermarket alarm, they do not know anything on it, and ths was one of the service men, so I was like "if u dont know who would, my mother certainly does not have a clue". These people are clowns.

But im gonna bring it back and force them to show me how to adjust it.

I'm sure there is a brand or name and serial number on the brain of the alarm. Have them show you where they installed the brain. Then go online and find the manfuacturer and download (or have them mail you) the manual.
