hope someone can help ?

My dad has a mazda 6 & the alarm keeps on going of for no reason.
Mazda have looked at it & say there has been some problems with the 6's alarm system but they do not know what is to blame.
they checked his alarm out & say there is nothing wrong with it, My dad asked them to put a different alarm in his car, but the guy at the dealershp said that this was not possible as the alarm was built into the car, & that the existing alarm would not allow a seperate alarm to be fitted.
Is this ture or not ? I suspect it is not true.

 

Yes it is tue about that the alarm system is built into the car. I am not sure about replacement but tell your dad to check his manual. There is alot of things that could set of the alarm. it could be at the door, trunk, weels, hood, windows, and a few other. This is all the places that the alarm has sensors on the car. U might also want to check his remote(keyless entry). The panic button might have a fault in it. Tell him to ask the dealer for a new one. they should give a one for free.

 

I had the same problem. The alarm system would activate if i walked past the car or if my mobile rang whilst standing by the car. Normally in the middle of the night!

The main dealer has just resolved by changing the interior sensors.

 

Was this covered by warranty?

 

u kno wen i bought my 6 they sayd it didnt have an alarm but 1 day i pulled the door handle to open it (i forgot it was locked ) and it went off on me but the dealer sayd i didnt have 1....aint that a son of a bitch?!

 

I pulled up to get gas and opened the door to get out and alarm went off. I pulled the fuse. Drives fine without it, but I lost the radio and all my digital info about the heat and air. Heat and air work, I just cannot see where it is blowing or temp. I would like to get this fixed.

 

I have had problems w the alarm going off at any time 24/7. The sunroof drain was stopped up by tree pollen and water got into the computer located in the kickpad beside the left driver's foot.. I replaced for over $1000. The replacement computer took on water and the dealer replaced 6 mo later under warranty. Good luck w this issue.

 

Similar issue with my 2010 Mazda 3 alarm. Random any time. But I am noting the door sensor is activating "open door" and it goes on and off. That would trigger the alarm. That has to be the cause but how do you fix it?
