That was a waste of time
UNLESS you:
Tore out all the trim.
Dug down to the CLP/SSM.
Removed the CLP/SSM from it's insulative blanket (which traps moisture very effectively).
Looked the CLP/SSM over for water or corrosion.
Unplugged EVERY connector and looked at EVERY pin for corrosion/standing moisture.
I *think* I've identified that the only conditions most likely (but not consistently) to trigger the alarm are moisture in the air.
I am not sure what you are saying, but if you are saying that you think moisture is the only condition to likely set off the alarm, you have the wrong idea.
The most common issue is corrosion on the alarm siren module caused by leaking batteries on the module's circuit board. Moisture in the CLP/SSM is a leading cause, but not the number 1 cause.
Moisture in the
air is not a cause at all.
