    Will also do the same thing if the piece of equipment you left standing upright in the back decides it will fall over all by it self

    Happened to me in the Dalhousie springs camp ground late one night.

    I now always lock it with the key when camping,as the volumetric sensers are disabled.

    On my 1992 RRC with the then factory/LRA fitted "Repeller" alarm if I leave the windows cracked the wind moving the seat belts sets it off.

    after 5 pretty big weeks of stuff, at 01:00 this morning the alarm goes off, even thougth I was asleep I knew what it was, found the key, bolted to the window, sorted it out and two mins later it was off again.

    this time, I found the moth, sorted him out, and then spent a few mins reading the book and locked it with the key.......I remembered this thread from some time ago so wasn't too worried but it was wake up alarm......

    apart from those 10 mins, I clocked 11hrs sleep last night .........

    I had issues with mine going of regularly and I could not find anything in the car to set it off.

    I ended up disabling the volumetric sensors so that I can still lock the car with the key fob and not have the alarm go.

    I had mine go off in the early hours one morning - again to the annoyance of the neighbours.

    Good thing they didn't see me running out in my undies to turn it off.

    Turned out to be a sticking horn button on mine - wasn't the alarm at all. I found that one of the horn buttons was partly depressed into the wheel, and I guess that there must have been enough moisture in the air that night (it was drizzling rain and bloody freezing) for it to make contact.

    Have since "adjusted" the horn button so that it doesn't stick and have not had the same happen since.
    Cheers .........

    Lol the moth seems to be a common problem, mine went off a few weeks back from a moth, only prob was I had it switch to air horns instead of the factory horns. Needless to say neighbours loved it at 10pm in the middle of the week

    kept having the same problem with mine, stuffs me how the moths kept getting in, so i plugged in the hawkeye and turned the volumetric sensors off and haven't had a problem since. Still get moths flying out in the mornings tho.

    Had the same problems with moths. Now I like to lock the kids who are slow to get out in the car and tell them it is the special 'kids still in the car' warning signal . The joys of fatherhood

    Mate - get into the habit of opening your wallet and giving it a good shake-out.

    BEFORE getting into the Disco.
