    My 2008 Taco's factory alarm keeps going off for no reason. It's glass break or major impact only so it should not being going off. It seems to go off only between 1700-2000 and has done it every day for the last week, sometimes a couple times in a row so I know it was not hit.

    I have not changed the battery in the truck yet.

    Any ideas on what is causing this?

    Yes, I've seen it go off for no reason. It goes off at all hours now, including at 0200 this morning. Sometimes several times a day.

    I really need to fix this.

    I took it to the dealer and of course it did not trigger when they had it for 2 days.
    Get it home and it goes off that night. Anyone know of an issue or possible causes?
    Checked the battery and its fine.
    At a loss here...
