Any ideas so it doesnt have to go in the dealers

change out the two sensors...one for in-side, one for out- side...it
takes the dealer 5 min to swap them out...they
cost arouns $159US  (for both)...

Before spending any money, squirt some fly killer into the car and leave
it closed for half an hour.
Random activations plagued me for weeks, until I found a moth had taken
up residence in the car, first seen when its corpse dropped onto the
drivers seat after taking the above course of action!

Good luck

sensor located?
