A strange thing happened today.. Alarm issue maybe?

[DanStarr]

Went out shopping earlier parked out the way no one either side of me. Was only gone for around 10-15mins if that, when i got back the headlights on my car were flashing on and off? Car was locked could see the red light flashing for the alarm as usual. Been home now for a few hours and im paranoid lol Any ideas?

Where were you parked? In the open, in a enclosed car park? If it was in the open did it rain or was there hail? Was it windy? Just sometimes the car can be a bit sensitive.

i think the bonnet switch is a common issue that causes alarm faults

Was parked in a undercover part of the mall cribbs bristol. At first i thought someone had broken into it! Hasnt happened again since was checking it every 30 mins or so till i went to be last night guessing i didnt close the boot properly or something.

This happened to me till I unplugged the bonnet switch as advised by those in the know on here. No problems since and the alarm and doors lock fine.
