Had rigid backup lights installed today.

This evening the alarm in the truck activated. Checked video, only thing I noticed was when the neighbor came home, and opened his garage door was when the alarm went off. Whatchall reckon? Update: Went to the installers, very reputable and upfront people, he was positive of his work with the wiring harness. I then went to a friends business, we put it up, traced the wire, saw nothing at all out of the ordinary. Of course the dealership had nothing to say, since it isn't their work, I expected that but for ***** and grins went by anyhow. Installer said if it happens tonight, ask the neighbors to change their opener code which sounds reasonable but this hasn't happened until yesterday after backups installed. Only thing I can figure is atmospherics or somehow, something to do with those lights. At a loss. Hoping one of you out there may have experienced this and knows something. TIA.

Could have, try different setting on the alarm.
I cant remember the verbiage but try the perimeter only.
Or park in a different spot..... good luck

well, it hasn't happened again so I'm going with atmospheric convergence and a squirrel eating my tailgate.

You had some type of aftermarket alarm installed?....

 

[cddawgs]

no. Just rigid taillights. Since posting this, I disconnected the lights, and it still did it.

You were talking about an alarm going off...so what did the "installers" install?
