You may also want to check the door pins to make sure they are up to par. It's a long shot, but I have come across systems with faulty, dirty, cracked, or loose, pinswitches which caused intermittent faults.

I found out the problem it was the dome light supervision wire which is taped into the door trigger wire, so the two of the wires are connected to the door trigger of the vehicle. So if I want the dome supervision to work how do I hook it up, so that the wire is not taped into the door trigger wire.

Maybe this will help, but i'm not sure.  If your alarm does not go off tonight then might have to double diode isloate the door tirggers.  I've seen this happen many times on Ford's were about every 30-60min the alarm goes off and shows that a door is open.  Never heard of this happening on a honda, but maybe it will work.  Take the wire that runs to the alarm and place a diode with the stripe (cathode) side facing the door. Then take the door trigger wire, cut it and place a diode with the stripe (cathode) side so that the stripe faces the door pin,  if you need a diagram email me @ kenmci@mail.com and i'll diagram it for you.  Now usually this is done when each door trigger is separate, so if you have one wire for all doors, which it looks like you do, then use this idea only as a last resort.

Ask me for a diagram, because the diodes need to go in a specific order, it's hard to explain in words.

Use this diagram ( the negative one ) for the dome light supervision. The wire is the same as the door trigger wire, but the dome light wire from the alarm should have a relay on it to isolate it from the door trigger circuit.

Velocity Motors my alarm has a built in relay for the dome supervision, there has to be an other way to wire up the dome supervision. I found that when the car goes off the dome supervision wire makes the door trigger wire get a pulse making the door trigger wire to the alarm make the car go off saying that the door trigger has been violated, which really happens is that the pulse from the dome light wire is sending a negative feed setting the alrm off.

Sounds like the polarity input(ground) for the dome light relay may be loose. There is no other way for dome supervision to operate. The door pin has to "see" ground in order to trigger the domelight. The bigger concern is: Why is the domelight supervision wire pulsing ground 40 minutes AFTER the system has been armed? The d\s should only operate for approx 30 seconds after the alarm is disarmed. Could be you have a defective internal relay.

Even if the unit has built in relay for this circuit, you have to isolate the two circuits from each other with a relay. Use the negative relay diagram from thelink and hook up the dome light output from pin 30 to the dome light wire of the Honda. Also, why is the dome light wire feeding a (-) signal to your car 4 hours after arming ? If this is the case, you have a faulty dome light circuit or relay inside the unit.

Is there a proper way to mount the alarm unit? Does the way I mount the unit matter. I have the alarm unit mounted up an down but a guy told me the best way to mount the alarm unit is to mount it flat.  The guy said the way I have it mounted can cause a false alarm and set the alarm off. Please le me know. Thanks
