I have an intermittent fault too. Alarm goesoff randomly when cars or people drive/walkpast it.Dealer couldn't locate problem as alarm didn't go off at the garage?? The sensor is near the interior lightswhich is perforated in the plastic. I shall look at my led flashes next time to see how many there are. Thanks for that.

 

My alarm did the five flashes of the LED again this morning after being fine for a week.

I've noticed a possible connection. Every time it has occurred has been at work and after a Toyota RAV4 has parked next to me.

I don't know enough about the alarm and its sensors but could it be possible that the key remote or the alarm on the Toyota upsets my car?

Might have to find who owns the RAV4 and do a few tests.

 

I had exactly the same problem on my 07 UK Citroen C-Crosser (which is a clone of the 07 Outlander). These have the Cobra Globe 4800/4900 CAN alarm fitted by Cobra on entry to the UK. Mine seemed to go off when the temperature dropped in the middle of the night! As a temporary measure, you can disable the ultrasonics by pressing the button which is part of the alarm LED assembly on the centre console within five seconds of switching off the ignition, until the LED does a long flash. This must be done EVERY time you switch the ignition off!

After much debate between the Citroen Dealer, Citroen UK and Cobra, they finally called in Cobra to replace the alarm unit and sensors under warranty. No problem since then ;o)

 

it seems like all the cool features are in Japan and UK. US market doesnt have this feature...
