"Alarm Triggered" Msg every morning

volvo4pete · Nov 27th, 2006, 01:54

Hoping someone has had this problem in the past and can help. I've noticed the "Alarm Triggered" msg 8 of the last 10 mornings. No wind or other disturbances that would explain the alarm arming itself. The mystery is that I never heard the alarm. So, I locked the car with the window down, set the alarm, then opened the door. The surprise is that the alarm activated correctly, but, I practically had to put my ear to the passenger bumper to hear it. It was barely audible. The panic button horn and lights work fine when tested. Any ideas? Thanks...

your alarm siren module is dying, same happened to me. the siren alone is £150, whereas if you buy the alarm siren kit (siren, stickers and more kit) is only £90!

I have this problem too, but would the suggestion above sort the problem of the alarm being triggered regularly for no apparant reason?? I have never heard it go off either so will check volume today!
