Im not sure how I can narrow it down as there are no faults showing in the logs when I check with durametrics.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I thought that had fixed it, as it stopped the double beep, but the alarm still keeps going off randomly.
Hi chaps. My car is laying low in the garage for the winter and now the alarm keeps going off for no reason, i have checked the things mentioned in the hand book, now i have disconnected the battery to give us some peace! boy its loud. Any help as to what the problem may be will be much appreciated thanks and Merry Christmas to all.
As above either an open compartment.. arm rest, glove box, frunk or battery low which sets off alarm. You will know if it is the battery as you won't be able to start the car. Had that problem recently.
Must be that time of year, my alarms started going off randomly atm. It started doing the double beep which would indicate something left open, so I opened/closed everything - doors, bonnet, boot, glove box & central arm rest cubby hole. I thought that had fixed it, as it stopped the double beep, but the alarm still keeps going off randomly. Usually at night though I have to say.
How ive fixed it atm is to press the lock button twice on the key fob, which apparently turns off the internal sensors - so motion, glove box & cubby hole. Fingers crossed its not gone off since, which would indicate some sort of fault with one of those 3 sensors.
Im not sure how I can narrow it down as there are no faults showing in the logs when I check with durametrics.
Fully charged the battery and have it on a smart charger now, alarm still goes off even when engine is running, i have now disconnected the siren! my ears have had enough :sad:
Ok .. the first thing to check is whats actually triggering the alarm ..
i would use a tester and look at alarm activations and events .. this will actually tell me what has been faulty when the car was locked and what actually triggered the alarm .
I can also see the positions of every item of the alarm system and see whats faulty .
Basically if you dont have a tester then i would guess at a half hour labour charge to you at an Indy .
This is obviously far cheaper than throwing bits at it in an attempt to fix the fault .
Strangely enough .. it may well be the siren thats causeing this !
What is single beep? Mine does this on locking and then at some random interval afterwards the alarm will go off. To stop this I lock then unlock the car, don't open a door and it locks itself after 60 secs and the alarm stays silent.
Thanks Infra - I was confused by the information that a double beep was something left open. Single beep something left open (which of course it isn't so it is a faulty microswitch I expect).
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
