alarm system goes off by itself
I have a big problem with my alarm.
Usually when I lock the car the turn signals fash 3 times and then the car locks.
Now somehow they don't flash at all, the car just locks if I press the lock button.
HOWEVER, alarm will go off after about 2 minutes and then come off every 30 seconds or so.
Can anyone please explain to me what the problem with it is?
I have disconnected the battery and will try it again tomorrow morning. Maybe it'll work. Otherwise I don't even know what to think
Thanks

Dmitry
