I've got a 95 opel omega mv6 estate(what vauxhall called elite i believe). Never heard the alarm for the 5 years i've had it until a week ago when it suddenly started waking up the whole farm at 3.00 am. This happened quite regularly after that. Since this is a norwegian car it never had the infamous power sounder fitted so that was out. First thing i did was disconnect the bonnet switch but still the car was howling in the night. Turned of the interior sensors with the same result. Took out all the door switches and the tailgate switch and cleaned them but no luck. The local dealer didnt manage to get into the alarm with their tech2. Was about to give up the whole thing when i suddenly remebered that this started happening just after i had filled the luggage compartment with junk one day. Disconnected the wires on the rear load space side windows. (glass break sensors) No i've slept peacefully for 3 nights:) obviously some of the junk had disturbed the glass break sensors. Just posting this in case it could help someone else with similar problems.

Quite a common fault, although never known Tech2 not to speak to the ECU..
