Dealer wanted me to buy a new Honda latch sensor and the waiting time for the part is 3 weeks - they could’ve told me about this hack to save some SLEEP for my neighbors but NO they prob aren’t allowed to tell customers about any helpful hacks.

Just tried these solutions, have been having the car alarm go off randomly every night and even kill my battery for the past 2+ years. Best solution I had was unfortunately just leaving it unlocked, and even then it would still go off sometimes. I’m to the point where I really don’t care if somebody breaks into my car so I hope this works!! Thank you.

[@andrewutsc]

Thanks, this was the best video on this topic! My alarm would go off randomly and got worse the past few days where it would go off a few times an hour in the night (I think the temperature dropping it affected it). I've read elsewhere it might be a door/hood/trunk latch, but this is the ONLY video that showed how to do it, and how to just disable the alarm if you don't want to bother with it... and that's what I did! My car is a 2007 Acura CSX, so if anyone wants it- they can have it! The dealership wanted $150+tax just for the privelege to look at, no quote on the actual fix. I pulled out the cable under the hood and cancelled the appointment. Thanks for your help!

Hey bro, my tailgate open warning light stays on but the tailgate is closed. Is this the same problem with the sensor also. I can't use the fob to lock the car but I could unlock it only. I have a 2008 acura MDX. Is there a sensor on the tailgate?

[@RBTheMechanic]

Yeah I think it might be the tail gate lock latch issue

[@Loknology]

@@RBTheMechanic Thanks for your response. After spending many hours with the car. I found the culprit to the problem of my tailgate open warning light staying on when tailgate is securely closed. The latch is fine. The problem is in the rear fuse/Auxiliary box on the left side if looking at the back side of the tailgate. You will see some regular mini fuses and below it you will see two slot connections. I noticed mine was wet like water has leaked into it. Very important, when I unplug the top slot socket, the turning signal,SH-AWD,center console instrument lights, Shift lights, unlock and lock button, rear latch, dashboard warnings, all key fob functions, and possibly others will not work. So, When I vacuum out all the water and dried it out, I looked at the bottom of the socket plug and saw there have been some short-circuiting residue. There was a pin broken from the slot that was shorting out other pins and I'm thinking that's my signal to the tailgate open warning light and it was flickering due to the water. So my car alarm was coming on and off because of that whole moisture problem and the broken pin. I don't know what that broken pin connects to but when I plugged the socket back in the slot, everything worked perfectly. No intermittent alarm waking up the neighbors. Anyway, already wrote a book. Thanks again to even care to respond to my question. I hope this helps others as I saw online MDX threads that had the same problem and they didn't know what to do. Bro.... I Subscribed!

This recently started happening to my 2018 RDX. Out of the blue, no rhyme or reason. I turned off the lock when walk away features and slapped in my Bluedriver scan tool. It generated 3 minor communication trouble codes. Rear latch, memory seating and power windows. I went ahead and cleared the codes leaving it to sit over night unlocked. The day prior before running scan tool it wouldn’t honk or light up upon key fob locking but would light up if I were unlocking. The next day I clicked lock and proceeded to hold down the auto-start. The lights came on when I selected lock! It now is working like normal and has been over a week since issue happened. Knock on wood. All my doors hood rear latch were locking and working properly.

[@veramann]

I had a car alarm installed on my Honda Accord about 3 years ago. But now, it keeps going at least once a week for no apparent reason. When I took my vehicle back to the shop for inspection, the installer couldn't figure out the root cause or fix the problem. What a jackass! The alarm brand name is called Sky Tech, which is a piece of shit.

[@RBTheMechanic]

I would have it removed if it’s bother you. I have had cars that gave me hard time can’t seem to find the issue could be faulty door sensors

[@CliffDogg910]

That shit under the hood goes to the fan…

[@RBTheMechanic]

Maybe in showers wrong but the connector above it

[@timelesssoul3345]

My 2003 Acura MDX was doing this even after I unplugged the hood latch, I had to remove the horn relay just to quite the alarm

[@RBTheMechanic]

Did u try locking and unlocking disabling alarm from door key

[@timelesssoul3345]

@@RBTheMechanic I bought the vehicle used, and it didn't come with a fob remote just a regular key
