This can be the symptom of a low battery. You might want to check that. Otherwise, ur board is probably goosed.

What happens when you turn the alarm off? Do you get a sequence of flashes to indicate what sensor was activated?

Bonnet switch can sometimes cause this IIRC...

Just had the Integra Alarm services and bonnet switched changed due to this, the Prelude started doing it yesterday and the S2000 this morning.

I think the S2000 problem was a flat battery as it's not been moved for over 2 months now so just plugged the trickle charger in, must get the car MOT'd soon.

Hi

Had this problem when the battery in the remote was running out - unlocked the car and disarmed the alarm, but it would still keep going off. New remote battery, no problems !
