Need some help ppl.

for the past week or so my alarm just randomly keeps going off. Its strange as this only happen once i have for example gone out, parked up, turned the alarm on, then a about a minute later it goes off.

Once i turn off the siren using the keyfob and turn on the alarm again it works fine.

Happens bout once every 2 days or so. And only happens about a minute after i have parked up and activated the alarm. It never goes off all of a sudden or during the night or anything. Ive checked the keyfob thinking maybe the button or summin is jammed causing it to trigger the alarm but the button is fine.

I have a dealer fit VW alarm which is a scorpion 1315-T2. Are there any other sensors in the car? Ive checked the two on both the a-pillars and all seems fine.

Its wierd as the EXACT same thing happens all the time. It only goes off about a minute after ive activated it. once ive disabled the siren and re-activated the alarm it all works fine.

any suggestion??

All the doors are wired in, including the boot. Check the rear washer pipe.

ahh.. cheers.

i dewipered the rear a while back. did seal (tape) up the pipe and havnt pressed the washer button by accident either but will defo have a quick look. cheers

still keeps going off.... tis beginning to get on my nerves now

checked the rear washer pipe and its still sealed.

any suggestions on where i can start looking? does the scorpion alarm have a system whereby the LED flashes a certain number of times to indicate why it went off?
