i dont know if this is very common, but after not driving the CL for a while in the winter. The alarm is starting to go haywire... happen one day when i came home locked the door and out of nowhere it went off. it happens randomly.
and its screwing up my HIDS ...
anyone know what i can do?
i dont really want an aftermarket alarm to replace it...
i asked my mechanic.. and he told me if i bring it to acura they are going to charge me like 500 so screw that

Check to see that your door sensors are working. If one is sticking, it will cause the alarm to not work properly. As for the HIDs, my alarm only flashes the corners and tail lights... Why is yours flashing the headlights? That sucks.

Factory alarms act up once in a while. At least mine does every few months. In fact is was acting last night. It was weird cause it was making just a chirp then a 10 seconds later another. Almost like a bird singing.

my friend almost had the same problem on his EL... he took it to terrace gate acura...and they had found out that it was a faulty hood pin switch...

hood pin switch?
WTF
CL stock alarms dont even come with hook pins
