Factory Alarm Adjustment

[waynemex]

Hi

When my car is parked on a high street, passing traffic is setting off the ultrasonic alarm now and again, also high winds are setting it off at night as I get the 2 beeps when I open the car in the morning.

Is there a procedure for turning the sensors down, did a search but just found how to turn them off altogether and that someone else took theirs to a dealer and it was a dash out job?? :s

This the all I can find.

Alarm.

1) The Renault alarms (made by Cobra) have a few common problems but most of the time there found in the first few weeks from new. These include.

2) The bonnet switch can fail or get rusty, open the bonnet and you'll see it on the front just check it's working. (also check your bonnet catch closes properly)

3) The interior sensors on the drivers pillar are normally from new extremely sensitive the way to fix this is for Renault (under warranty) swap the feed lines round and the sensitivity is dropped by 40% or so. Until you can get these fixed the only way to fix it is to either alarm the car without the interior sensors being activated or to close the air vents and ensure there not pointed at the sensors on the pillars.
