Hi All
I am new to this fourm and my first post so im hoping im in the right section!!
I have an 05 Magna LPG TW-ES
I have a problem with my cars alarm going off at random times
When the alarm goes off the horn sounds sick, which made me think it was the battery
However it was recently serviced and the battery report said the battery was 'Good'
To my understanding the alarm goes off when power is drawn....
My thinking was that maybe my battery is dying and that is affecting my alarm?
Upon looking at the battery the 'screw caps' appear to have had a very minor leak..
Also the car does make a ticking sort of sound, but the mechanic thought it was the LPG regulator, could it be the alternator is rooted? does that tick if its on its way out?
Any form of suggestions or help would be muchly appreciated!!
I rang Mitsubishi and they said 'bring it in' and i only want to do that if 100% necessary..
p.s New car warranty has expired, exceeded Km's
Kind Regards
Greg
