Alarm going off for no reason
 
Hi Everyone,

My alarm has been going off randomly for no apparent reason. After the horn stops blowing, my turn signal lights continue to flash, but with no sound from the horn.

Any ideas? Please help

Thanks

Few things you need to double-check when enabling the alarm - see attached Alarm Guidance.

If this persist, disconnect the battery for a few minutes, reconnect, recalibrate the throttle position as per docs, set power windows limit as per docs, go for a long ride for the adaptation process, and try that alarm once again before putting everything in the bin!
