I’ve got at 1998 2.5 Elite and the powersounder was going off at random times (mainly while driving). There was no way to stop it but it would got off for 10 seconds at most. Having read what felt like every post/article on powersounder issues I felt that a new powersounder would sort the issue. Having acquired a new (manufactured in 2008) one and fitted it it seems to be going off more than the old one I took off. Again it’s mainly while driving or occasionally when parked up and locked. Spoke to Vauxhall dealer who I bought it off and they were very helpful saying “check the wiring”. I’ve also spoken to a non-Vauxhall specialist who said it need to be re-programmed but I don’t believe this to be true? My next thought is to replace the main car battery but I’m not sure if this will sort it. Could a poor main battery cause it to go off while driving? Or is it more likely to be something else like the wiring?
