Omega Alarm/Shock Sensor

I have an 04 Ram that has an Omega AL-100-H alarm installed and the shock sensor is giving me fits, sometimes the alarm would go off if I just walked by the truck other times I could beat on the door or truck body and it would not go off, the installer has changed the shock sensor twice with the same results, originally the sensor was a AU84TM, today the installer replaced it for the third time again but this time with a AU84TP, when I asked him the difference in the two he said the TP had a crystal element ??? I know where the sensor mounts makes a difference on how it reacts, it is mounted on the parking bracket release bracket but don't understand the inconsistencies. I guess my question is the crystal more or less sensetive.

Thanks
Bob

I unpluggd the darn thing having temporarily given up on it, after 3 shock sensors all basically behaving the same I sort of put the issue aside, plus I live in an area that has a lot of thunderstorms and with summer approaching figured I was just looking for more headaches.

David,
I appreciate our generous ofer to provide me with a shock sensor, but I do not believe my problem is with the sensor itself, 3 new ones out the box cannot all be bad, I really believe that my problem is with the mounting location, as i mentioned the installed has it tie wrapped to the parking brake release mount, I am going to experiment with trying it in other locations, I have read other posts where a wiring harness has been used, and with the approaching summer and frequent thunder storms I am not sure that I even want it. At this point it is more of a challenge than a need.

Bob

hey bob,

this might be a shot in the dark, but if all of the units are from the same batch then it might be possible...i am more then willing to send you a different type if you want...just let me know.

Are you sure that your problrm is the shock sensor? Disconnect it and try the alarm for a day or two. On the new Dodge trucks if you do not correctly wire the door triggers they will trip the alarm 5-10 min after arming the vehicle. So if disconnecting the shock sensor does not solve your problems then make sure that the door triggers are done properly.

his problem is that the shock sensor is triggering the alarm..............

My problem is definitely the shock sensor, I am aware of the problem with the door triggers setting off the alarm a few minutes after setting the alarm, i went through that scenario when i had my Dakota, right now the shock sensor is unplugged and having no problems. I was thinking of cutting the red wire to the shock sensor and adding a switch so I could turn it off and on as needed without having to keep crawling under the dash. As i stated earlier this has become more of a challenge than a problem.

i wish i could find an AU84T that was sensitive enough to set my alarm off lmao! just kidding
