Check your hoodpin switch, too, if you have one. Maybe it's broken or has too much water build up on it?

do you have anything plugged in?? say a radar detector or a cell phone that stays on when the car is off?? sounds like somthing is drawing power and at the 30 minute interval the alarm senses it as an intrusion.

i had a viper alarm once...i had a cell phone that if i left it on the alarm would trigger just about at the 30 minute mark.

let us know.
