alexp999 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Hi and welcome to FOC. If you have only just had it fitted I would take it back to the place that fitted it and get them to fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenChaser Posted September 13, 2013 Author Share Posted September 13, 2013 It's going back next week to be sorted but thought if I could get some info into whats causing it, it might save them a lot of time trying to find the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 It may be that the car enters a deep sleep state after 30mins to conserve power and it the alarm is incorrectly detecting it as someone disconnecting the battery. Perhaps they have use the wrong live wire for detection. Or it could be that the alarm enters a heightened state after 30mins and something keeps setting it off. The fact that it happens after 30mins must mean something on a timer is happening at that point, but hopefully the company that fitted it will know their product enough to sort it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
