Your Ride: 95 730iL
E38 Alarm keeps going off :(
Hi all, sorry to bring this one up, seems as though it has and is happening to lots of cars.
Car in question is a 95 730il, now the alarm is being set off continuously, when locked. From perusing other forums, i have noted that the hood switch is a biggy, i have disconnect this, disconnected the glove box switch, i had disabled the tilt and motion business, reset my car key, unlocked the diagnostics and the voltage is perfect, just recently changed the battery thinking it may of been the cause. One thing i have noticed is the left passenger door lock sometimes wont popup, but then cannot replicate this when noticed. Is there any more sensors i am missing? how to test the door switches?
