Random Alarm Soundoff

[R.3.2.G.T.R]

have a mongoose alarm with the sensor for picking up glass break and impact etc..

anyways i find my alarm going off for no reason quite often.. nobody around, no loud noise but it still gets triggered somehow

suggestions?

diagnostics for one. work out what is tripping it first.

glass sensor setting may be a bit hot but thats only a guess.

it happens usually in the middle of the night or while im at work during the day.. however no-one is around to trigger it.. ill try turning down the sensitivity on the glass sensor as well

one option, thiefs set off the alarm over and over till you get pissed off and shut it off, then bang your car is gone!!! beware

they can pick up changes in air pressure, garage door opening ? random birds/cats on the roof, or loud stereo's or even wind noises if you have air leaks in the door seals.

voltage flucuations can cause issues as well. or depending on mounting location it can pick up close proximity items, like coins in a drink holder can cause problems if it's mounted under it, take it to the installer to look at first ? unless you suss anything above

great suggestions, i normally arm with but disable the impact and glass sensor if it happens

air pressure/wind noise - will suss out

garage door - nope

random cats/birds - no that i have seen around

loud stereo - nope

voltage fluctuation - nope new dry cell

glass sensor mounted where a-piller and dash meets

security at work told me my alarm was going off opened door and a small moth flew out thats how sensitive the sensors are (mongoose m80) the sensors near the a pillars are motion sensors

my alarm doesnt have motion sensor, only glass and impact sensor
