So,

Just been out to start car to go to work.. unarmed alarm from fob, all okay.. then alarm starts blaring! Have re-armed/unarmed numerous times, opened bonnet, closed bonnet but alarm is still going of...

Any ideas chaps?

Ta,
Jake.

 

had thisd happen before when i unlocked car,opened boot,then passenger door then drivers door.

would not reset for ages.


think i just locked and left it for 5 mins.

 

wow! how weird.. waiting did fix it! touch wood... thanks chap!
but does this mean the alarm or something is on its way out?

 

no.


just a blip i reckon.


mine did it years ago and been fine since.

 

must of been fate! as its started to snow pretty heavily here now... i'm going to stay at home now

 

Mine has done exactly the same twice, i think because i've opened the boot with the remote and then closed the boot and clicked the door unlock button at much the same time.

The alarm then won't reset from the remote and you just have wait for it to complete its alarm cycle. The siren will turn off after a minute or so and then you can lock and unlock the car using the remote at which point all seems to be well again. But if you try and reset the alarm by pressing any of the remote buttons while the siren is sounding it just seems to extend the time it takes to reset itself.

 

defo must of been what i did then! thanks for all the help chaps..

 

Hmmm, I had that problem last week after the car had been left standing in a cold garage for some time - I think it was a depleted battery issue.

 

I've just had this happen to me after I was leaving the gym!! I had to drive home with it blaring in my ear, not impressed. It wouldn't stop either. It seems to have stopped now but I really don't want to go near it incase it kicks off again.

I had to to put my hoody up (to muffle the noise) and drive faster to get home quicker, it would have definitely looked suspicious!!!
