Auris Hybrid Triggering itself

[Brian Austin]

Neighbour came over last night to complain of the alarm sounding off on our Auris hybrid Estate. Checked it out all windows were shut etc, alarm will not set, if anything is not closed/set. Went back indoors it then triggered again wit me watching it. Disconnected Battery, as the only way I could think to did arm it. Any thoughts appreciated

There could be an insect in the car, triggering the internal movement sensor. This sensor can be disabled by pressing a switch near the sensor, which is above the rear view mirror. At least, that’s how mine used to work. Check your manual.

If you lock the car with physical key, alarm will not be enabled. 

So your neighbours can sleep fine, until you figure it out.

Something odd happening, in that never had a problem with this in the last 3 years of ownership. but my partners Honda Jazz started to do the same a week ago. It is a 2008 model Jazz so is not a sophisticated , as the Auris system, but started sounding off on its own. Also they do so when it gets dark. Have the Jazz booked into a very good auto electrician, who may sort it out. The Auris will take down to Toyo Tech on Monday to see what they can find if anything.
