2024 801A - False Intrusion Alarms

[LochRaven]

Can anyone suggest how to debug false intrusion alarms? I’ve had my truck for almost two months and have experienced about eight false intrusion alarms. It’s 15 degrees Fahrenheit out, so there are no bugs in my truck that would cause the false alarms, as others have suggested in previous posts. I dropped it off at the dealer today, and they plugged their laptop into my truck and indicated that there were no vehicle faults that would’ve caused the false alarms. So I asked what sensors caused the alarms to be triggered, and they said they have no way of knowing. I found that hard to believe.

The intrusion sensors are up by the upfitter switches. Pretty sure you can turn them off in the alarm settings.

Thanks, Antho.

I'm going to assume those sensors are circled in the attached pic. Instead of disabling them and waiting to see if that was the cause, I'd like to keep them enabled and try to use FORScan to see what sensor triggered the alarms.

Thanks.

yeah. There is one in the center as well. At the bottom of your picture.
