Alarm goes off for no reason
My alarm seems to go off about 10-15 minutes after I lock the car. I have disconnected the interior sensor in the ceiling (it's the updated sensor) and I have disconnected the hood pin. The car is a 1997 740iL with 244,000 miles. Any thoughts? Are there other sensors that I can disconnect? Is it maybe going off, because I have disconnected these two sensors?
Thanks.
Cecil

Re: Alarm goes off for no reason
Not sure if this will matter, but try hitting the remote lock button twice when locking. This is supposed to disable the interior motion sensor (on later years). This could help to eliminate the sensor (which you already did), and possibly the whole circuit as well (in case there are any shorts).
Might also want to disconnect batt for a period of time in case there are any ghosts lingering in the system.
The interior light goes off after last door is closed, right? If so, it shouldn't be any door pins.
