A number of times now, my alarm has gone off in heavy rain with the hood up, standing on the drive.
I took it back to the dealers but the sensitivity isn't adjustable.
No problems with the alarm when the hood is down strangley, works really well and never had a flasy yet.
Dealer says they would need to keep it a day or two and strip out the alarm to test each part of it, so I'm not anxious to do that yet.

Just wondering whether anyone else is having issues in rain with the hood up.
