Hi all,

I got a bit of a weird problem with my alarm on my car, the car battery has been playing up recently (have radio running for 20 mins (no subs or amps) and battery goes flat).

Over the past few days i will be woken up at about 2:30 - 3:00am in the morning to my alarm going off :rofl: after going to investigate (car is in a locked garage) their is nothing wrong, the sensor light outside isn't even on, so no one is out their, i disarm, rearm then it's fine.

It is a Laserline alarm with ultrasonic sensors and shock sensors, it is not the stupid cat either, cause its never set it off, could this be related to the dodgy battery?

I have replaced the battery this morning so i will see what happens tonight - only happens at night!!!

Also been noticing while having headlights on and reving enging the lights would go a little brighter, i think the cars electrical sys is a little dodgy cause also now the interior light - which used to come on when alarm disarmed, just flashes on and off!!!!

Anyone help, with suggections, etc..?

Yes, I'd suggest it's the dodgy battery.

Every time I disconnect the battery on my car, I have to turn the siren off. And if I have a problem starting, the low battery will also cause the siren to sound.

well, it happened again!!!!!!!

The alarm went off at 12:30 this morning, it went off then stopped then about 2 minutes later it wqent off again, nothing was out there again, so i have no idea what is going on. I had to disarm the alarm and leave it disarmed!!!!

can anyone help, or should i take it to an alarm place?

cheers

Well took it to an alarm place, the Ultra Sonic sensors were to sensative, last night, i had a good sleep without the alarm going off! ;)

Only problem is that, the interior light does not stay on for about 15 seconds as it used to when disarming the alarm, i asked the alarm guy and he said after calling laserline, they told him that when the alarm is disarmed, there is only a switched voltage sent to the interior light, then the interior light delay then should take over, he said my interior light delay must be stuffed in my car,

Do skylines have these if so where would i expect to find it.

Thanks in advance

    • I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it 
    • Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare. 
    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
