Hi ppz

i have this probelm with my OEM alarm, it sets off randomly. How can i see which sensor set off the alarm?

Thank you in advance

you can't tell yourself, but the dealer can hook it up to their computer and see which one is setting it off. Most common problem is the hood sensor. Try disconnecting it and see if the random alarms quit.
