Default Around noon every day my alarm goes off.

I'm not kidding. No matter where I'm at, the alarm just beebs twice 2 times and then 'goes off' around noon every day. But the sun has to be out. Doesn't do it under the car port armed allnite So I think it's temp related. Didn't start doing it untill after I installed the auto antenne. I had to r&r the shock sensor. I'm pretty sure that's what it is but I was wanting other opinions. Thanks.

Sounds like an alarm ghost.

j/k Actually I've heard of this bizarre phenomenon before but it was several years ago and I can't remember what it was or if he ever got it figured out. Try hanging some garlic around the rearview mirror. No, wait, that was for tire vampires - forget it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

The senor has an adjustment on it. Try making it less sensitive.

Mine is in the shop now because the alarm keeps going off. I had to remove the horn fuse located under the hood.

Well, it is funny. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> But it's real. I even left and while I was gone, it did it. I thought my fob was bad. I'm good on electrical ghosts. But ya can't diagnos it if ya aint got a tech 1 to get in side to see 'what triped' the alarm. I'm still leaning to the shock sensor. <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" />
Oh. I need to say this. Out of car with alarm on is the only time it freaks. Or maybey it's hungry? or seen a stang or .......
sorry. TECH 2!lol

This problem seems to come up a lot with lonely pets. It's called seperation anxiety. I hate to tell you this... but your car is lonely or bored.. or a combo of both. Feed it more 'stang. Remeber, positive attention is key <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

But I went to the dealer and YES it was the shock sensor. They warrentied it and no problem so far. (now he's hungery again!) <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />

I believe it has something to do with the photo-sensor on the dash for the headlights. Mine does not do the same thing as yours, but any extremely bright flash, like lightning or a camera flas and my alarm will go off.
