Hello Tim,

I would edge my bets on this being the SCU and the start of the end of that particular unit.

Does your car have the factory earth modiciation done?

Cheers

SCU u on about the box behind the dash here or the sounder box

I had this problem not long ago, and had my scu sent off to get it checked out.

Try this guy, he is very helpful

but mine came up with no faults, and put it down to the key fob. I found it very strange, as it has been working fine the last couple of months, with the original keyfob?

My symptoms were I couldn't start the car, and the alarm kept going off when I opened the drivers door. :smile1:

Think he means the SCU behind the centre console, secured by 2 metal plates that unscrew. :mml:

oh gawd theyre mega bucks :(

Give the guy a call at Alarmremotes, he can do reconditioned ones fairly cheaply, with a new programmed keyfob.

I understand it is a right pain, by the way what car do you have? :mml:

This is a good read as well, to understand the problem more:

Strange as this is what is now going on with mine,If the car has been standing for two days or more then it will go off when i get in the car not when i open the doors,But it doesn't go off if say ive been out for a couple of hours nor does it go off if i use it the next day. I have to lock it then unlock for the alarm to turn off.
