Anyone else's car alarm go off around 6am and 8 am every morning? Not sure if this is because my truck misses me at night or if its related to the remote start I had put on at the dealership.... But when I travel, my truck sits in the condo complex parking lot and pisses off a lot of people.

No. Just happened again when I parked, remotely locked it, drove down the street in my brother's car and the alarm was going off on its own. ALSO, sometimes when I remotely start it, I will hop in and the engine kills on its own. Remote started it today and my dad shut the tail gate and the engine killed... I think it's haunted!! Jk... Its gotta be from when the dealership installed the remote start. Going to take it in tomorrow and see if they can look at it.

I used to be an auto electronics installer and it sounds like your hood pin is out of alignment. It may need some adjustment or replaced. Auto starts will kill if the hood is opened for safety, so if you jumping in or slamming a tailgate kills it then its too sensitive and needs adjustment. I would bet my truck payment on it lol

And you're positive there's no one following you around and severely fails at breaking into your truck, repeatedly, every day?


kidding aside, with my limited electric knowledge... I'd say a wiring issue or short somewhere.

That's awesome...

I wonder though if there is something causing it to trip at that time...like a neighbor's remote signal being close you yours? Is that even possible with rolling codes?
