Car alarm keeps going off while I am inside the truck. Keys with me

The Solace Series car alarm may keep going off while you are inside the truck with the keys because the system could be detecting a door status change through the GREEN (-) or PURPLE (+) door status input wires. If these wires are not properly connected to detect all doors or are incorrectly wired, the system may think a door is open or tampered with, triggering the alarm. Additionally, if the OEM alarm system is active, locking the doors from inside and then opening them may also trigger the alarm.
