This happens when I start twisting the key to start the engine. It happens at random times but it‘s like a thrice -a-week sure-thing incident. I drive everyday so that gives you pretty much an idea of how often it happens. Nope, I am not pressing the panic button on my remote. I figured that out after thinking it was the culprit at first, but, NO. I have been EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS of not accidentally pushing that red button since I found out that my alarm was doing this annoying thing. By the way, I have a Honda 2007 Odyssey Touring, if that helps. So, how do I avoid this from happening again? And is it because of how I twist the key(well, my husband‘ is convinced that at times I do not twist it right)? Or is something to do with the static electricity in my hand? I know, I have a lot of weird questions but I just really want to get this solved. Getting my car checked by a professional is not an option right now so i just want your two cents on this issue. Thanks.
My car had the same issue and I had to take it to the dealership to fix the brakes and the alarm goes off at the dealership, so they check my car battery and they told me I need a new battery and that's why the alarm keeps going off when I start my engine. So I check the internet and seems alot of other people have this same problem and they say it's the battery so I look for when a battery should be replaced and the recommeded time is 3-4 years apparently, it could last longer then that, but you may never know when it will up and die on you. My battery is 8 years old, so yeah, time for a replacement, I'm not risking getting stuck with a dead battery. Oh and I don't use my car everyday so that might be another reason it laster longer I didn't ask the mechanics that though, so I'm just assuming that point. So hope this helps you.
