Toad alarm

[Janipear]

Hi Ive just joined and have a question I’m hoping someone can help me with. My alarm keeps going off even when I’m inside my van. The only time it doesn’t sound when I’m inside is if the drivers door is open. Any ideas how I can fix this.?

I think the techies will need more info about vehicle and alarm make

On the system that we had, after you turned the alarm off, you had to open and then close one of the cab doors, to stop the Alarm resetting itself. This was because the cab doors automatically lock again if they have not been opened - give it a try

When you say "keeps going off" do you mean that you disarm the alarm, you enter the motorhome and then the alarm triggers, unless, you enter (or open) the motorhome via the drivers door?

If yes, you have to live with it. Lots of dealers fit a car alarm thinking that there is no difference.

With a car, when you disarm the alarm, but don't open the drivers door (driver being in control) the alarm will automatically re-arm, so if you arm the alarm, and whilst walking away accidentally and unknowingly press the alarm button putting keys in a pocket or bag, the alarm will re-arm assuming that it was a mistake as no one has opened the drivers door.

Crap on a motorhome though when a lot of the time you are in and out of the caravan door.

It may be possible to have that feature programmed out, if you can find someone that installed TOAD alarms

It’s a Toad A101CL alarm. The alarm keeps triggering after I have got into my motorhome even if I’ve left my vehicle and the door is open. It seems as the wind moves my curtains, then the alarm will make a noise.

Thanks I’ll try that, it’s doing my head in at the moment.

On TOAD systems the control box usually has the settings on the box itself, so can tailor it to suit yourself.
The boxes are usually near the steering column & all of the wires going to it are black, no colour coding at all, keeps the crims guessing & TOAD systems are usually very good & pretty near the top end of the market.
