Elddis Majestic 155 (2019) alarm problem

Have you got a movement sensor on your alarm,?that is being activated

I had a similar issue, in a M\H, I reply because the number of beeps indicates what the fault is, when I called in they went straight to fault, rectified by tightening a spring bolt, been perfect since, good luck. Malc

Just reread JVB66 comment, we also have a movement sensor, which you can immobilise for night time use, not very clear on key fob. Could be that simple.

Could be that simple.

Yes, it can be as simple as a bunch of keys moving as the van is rocked in the wind. Yiou may be able to get the sensitivity of the movement detector adjusted. I rarely set my internal detectors because there is so much in the van that could trigger them

Is it a manufacturers fitted alarm or a third party one fitted by the dealer?

Hi I had a similar issue with my Elddis. The problem was through time the alarm front bonnet switch started to push into the soundproofing material under the bonnet causing an indentation which allows the push button alarm switch to extract and  activates the alarm as it thinks the bonnet has been opened. 

Hi Dollynopper, did you get this problem sorted?

On Wednesday 24th July I collected a Majestic 275 and when I got home I killed the alarm some 10-12 times. It went back to supplier next morning who immediately pounced on bonnet sensor.

Got it home later that morning and alarm was wailing away again. They collected it that afternoon, and I'm still awaiting feedback. Chase them tomorrow.

Hence my question! Interested party.

If not sorted it could be the battery in the movement sensor on the ceiling, it has its own battery.

We have the same van albeit a Sunseeker and have read about the alarm activating due to this battery needing replacing

Hi all. Majestic 275 been back with supplier over a week now and not any closer to getting our hands on our first Motorhome. Beginning to wish we stuck with a caravan. Handover of a NEW vehicle can.t ever have been more annoying.

They even spent a day talking with Base Systems who (I believe) make Autowatch alarms. Getting utterly fed up with the whole thing. Hopefully tomorrow will bring us some good news and sunshine.

Sorry folks, rant over.

Hi folks, finally collected the motorhome on Friday and the alarm has behaved itself since then. Hooray.

Worryingly neither Marquis nor Base Systems can be absolutely sure what was wrong, just grateful it has been sorted. Time will tell but all good at the moment.
