Default Re: Alarm keeps going off...

Well $400 later, I've done all 3 of these. And of course the alarm still goes off by itself! I normally can't turn off the alarm until trying for about 10-15 seconds, then it'll turn off. With new key fob batteries, both keys start/unlock/lock/panic the car properly. With a new car battery and siren, I just don't know what else to do. I don't have the time or desire to hang out at my dealership. Any ideas will help, thanks!
ok, here'so what I did to fix the problem:
Pulled all of the rear panels and foam out. Exposing everything including the rear passenger wheel well modules. Yes, take the insulation around modules out, too. They need to be exposed. Wait for many Sunny, Dry days in a row. When you've parked your car, be sure to manually raise the spoiler and Crack your windows about 1". Do this for a week...or for at least 7 sunny, dry days. PROBLEM SOLVED.
ALSO, NEVER RAISE SPOILER WHEN GOING THROUGH CAR WASH (touch less of course) NOR IF YOU ARE HAND WASHING AND RINSING WITH HOSE. When the spoiler is UP, water cones streaming into the wheel wells.
The aforementioned solved my issue. Good luck, let me know.
