Alpine alarm

Has anyone had any problems with their alarms continually going off? I've got an Alpine 8040 that goes off whenever it feels like it. The light flashes 5 blinks(radar?) It's driving me crazy!!! Please help!

Sounds like you have the sensitivity level set pretty high. If you have the 8440 remote you need to press both tx/external buttons until you sensitivity level comes down.

Hey do you know where I can get another 8440 remote for the 8040 alarm system? I tired pacifc coast distro but they don't carry the unit anymore.
