I have not been able to use the alarm on my car for a long time b/c everytime I arm it, it will go off by itself a few hours later.

I bought the car last year, but the owner manual for the alarm was incl in all the paperwork. Its a magnadyne carbine system.

Not too bad. Has infrared sensor.

Anyway...is it worth troubleshooting? Or should I junk it and get something newer? Anything that would be the most likely problem?

 

personally I'd get something newer..

 

You've got the right idea yank the old system and install something newer. The install should be quick & easy since all the needed wires that you'll need to splice into have already been located.

 

Cool...thanks...sorry for long time to reply. Yeah I was thinking of just splicing in a newer unit but was worried that its not the unit at all, but a grounding problem instead.

I'll prob just get a new alarm and be done with it
