Get the alarms system scanned with either the Durametric or factory diagnostic systems, it should list the last ten alarm fault point locations.

Have the same problem.

I had the car scanned with a Durametric, but it did not find anything wrong. The door, frunk, trunk, and center console sensors were fine. The radio's alarm light flashes. What's this you say about the gas cap???

alarm

I had a mouse build a small nest in the frunk latch hole.
Alarm would honk or go to full alert.
Removed beginnings of nest no more problems.
