Hi I wonder if any one can help me I have a problem with my volvo v40 1997 if you arm the alarm with the remote the alarm goes of say 3 secs after you have locked and armed, I think I have traced the problem to the sensor under the bonnet maybe? As, if you pull the catch so the bonnet is unlocked but not yet up then lock the car with remote the alarm so its armed, but soon as you go to push the bonnet shut it goes off. Hope some body out there can help as i have to just lock with the key so it is not alarmed! ok thanks in advance Tia Maria.

The sensor is integrated in the bonnet locking mechanism. Might just be dirt and grease that gives bad electrical connection.
