Hi

Changed my battery this morning, everything went fine, or seemed to, but now the Alarm goes off, its all been re-connected for over an hour and its gone off 3 times since.

Never had a problem with the alarm before.

Any ideas ?

Thanks
Dave

Disconnect the battery negative for a few minutes, then reconnect in a firm movement so it doesn't spark. Fixes it on my old spares dog when it throws a wobbly.

You haven't disturbed the bonnet switch whilst you were working on the battery?

I wouldnt even know where to find the Bonnet switch

But i Read somewhere on the net that if you turn the alarm off and on 3 times fast it resets it, I did this a couple of times with both keys and it seams to have worked, unless the car just reset itself, who knows....but its stopped doing it now.

Thanks tho to everyone who replied, this site is always great for info when needed.
