I don't think you can turn it off permanently, not sure if it can be coded out. I haven't tried turning it off yet, but will give it a go I think

Thanks JR, it's just been at it again for about 10 minutes, it activated around a minute after locking. We have been using the car all week and locking it and it has been fine. I totally agree all symptoms link to a failed battery in the alarm siren. I even looked up the part number Skoda replaced and it appears they did it correctly. Car booked in soon at Skoda and will update this thread.

Sorry, I meant to clarify. When opened they display fine, it's when the alarm is sounding without opening anything it doesn't show any doors open. I know from some owners the boot would show being open when the alarm was sounding, but it's not doing that. I hope that makes sense

Hello all, brand new to the forum. I normally like to contribute a bit more before asking questions but this alarm fault is so frustrating that I desperately need help Car: MK3 vrs petrol estate It is currently 0430am and the car alarm has just stopped. It sounds for seemingly no reason whatsoever, unlocking the car doesn't stop it and starting the car doesn't stop it. It has 5 minutes and stops on its own. The car battery is two years old (sloda replaced) and the alarm siren was replaced by Skoda last year (£400) which seemed to solve it at the time. I have also unplugged one of the boot lights as it was intermittent as I read here someone faced the same problem. The car also doesn't display an open door/boot/bonnet. Opening and closing all of these doesn't stop the alarm either. I can't see if there is an alarm sensor inside to clean it and the doors don't seem to have any obvious connection to clean. We have contacted an auto electrician and they have said something about a pin number to read the codes?? Sounds odd to me. I am determined to resolve this as the car has been amazing for my ownership but I am at my wits end and very disheartened, any help or ideas are very much appreciated.
