|
|
my car alarm on my 1997 528i has gone off at times during the past 9 years while parked and locked. It was a rare happening, so I really did not consider it to be a real problem. Well it has gone off the last two nights about 3:00 in morning & midnight last night. The vehicle is parked on a very flat surface and the weather is dry and cool about 60 degrees. Sometimes it goes off in daytime while parked at work place, etc.
Any ideas on what to look for , besides door jam switch etc.
Thanks,
John |

The hood switch (on the left side cabin filter housing) has been one cause of triggering the alarm. Maybe yours is intermittent. _________________
