[QUOTE="alxy, post: 20545, member: 2947"] Hi bros,I have a 2001 E46 325 fitted with motion sensor alarm. Trouble is, nowadays, it seems to be tripping for no apparent reason, particularly when it is sunny. Firstly, I assume it's the motion sensor, as I can't think of any other alarm being tripped. Manual says to press the lock button twice to disable motion sensor. I tried that (press twice slowly, price twice quickly, whatever speed and combination), still doesn't work, i.e. alarm still trips. Or could it be some other contact wire being loose? But that is a bit unlikely as when parked in my porch (i.e. no sun), it doesn't trip. Only when out in the direct sun. Heat sensor? Don't think that exists....or does it? :)Anyone face this problem before? Any solutions? Or any way to just remove the dang thing?Thanks! [/QUOTE]
