Hi, I have checked the search but haven't found anything regarding my problem

My alarm goes off 50% of the time I lock my car, usually within 5 minutes, sometimes as little as 30 seconds, its got so bad over the weekend that I have resorted to leaving it unlocked the majority of the time!

The only thing I can thing off is maybe there is a problem with the battery but as I am having no other electrical problems, and no warning through I-Drive regarding a low battery (doe sit even warn you anyway?)

Any help woul dbe much appreciated.

Regards

Just saw this topic so maybe its the tilt sensor in the rear bumper?

 

If anybody has any other ideas as to what it might be, i would appreciate your replies

 

pull the fuse

 

which fuse?

 

Is it fuse 51?

 

what fuse for the alarm? I can't find a diagram for anything.

 

Most likely the hood sensor. I had this same problem on my old 330Ci and when I replaced the hood sensor everything was fine. It's easy to replace and cheap to buy...good luck
