After buying the car a few months ago, the person i bought it off said he didnt think it had an alarm as nothing ever went off, but for a few weeks now, after locking and unlocking it makes the typical beep. But now, every time a noisy car goes past it sets the alarm off and its annoying me and probably the neighbours. I dont know if its to do with the key fob, it has two buttons, one with a line ( | ) and one with two lines ( || ) the one with one line locks and unlocks but i have no idea what the other one does as nothing happens, any ideas on how to shut the darn thing off?

oh yea was meant to, vauxhall astra p reg late 96 i think. clifford alarm, but dont hold me to that
sounds like the 'shock sensor' is to sensative, not familair with Clifford but many aftermarket alarms have adjustable shock sensors or even the option to turn it off.
Doesnt a 'P' reg AStra have a chipped key ?..if so the alarm is a waste of time anyway.
If it has ultrasonic sensors inside the car, try unplugging these for a few days to see if cured.
If it is them, there may be a control module "interface" that they plug into, and it may have a sensitivity setting. Turn down a bit.

Bad time of year for car alarm untrasonics. Heat, sun and humidity changes set them off easily.
Yes, a P reg Astra has a chipped key, so it can't be started without the key.

Get someone knowledgeable to disconnect the alarm.
Be cautious before disconnecting the alarm. Someone I knew was in the same situation. Alarm went off early morning for days and days. Eventually he disconnected the alarm. Next day - no car. Someone had been 'rocking' the car each night to set the alarm off and then walked away. The night or morning the alarm did not go off he broke into the car and drove off.
I think to solve this problem you should consult replacemyremote.com which is the right place for your replacement or backup original factory keyless remotes, car keys and remote head keys.
Summers are approaching; the sun will shine on its peak, heat is going to be intolerable, hot air will blow and there will be sweat and irritation all around. How to save oneself from these scorching summers? Going out from home is like next to impossible but staying inside is also difficult due to heat, what to do? Well, the time has arrived to unpack the air conditioners, clean the ceiling fans and air coolers and stay hydrated with cool drinks. Everybody is aware that before using an air conditioner the first step is to get it serviced and repaired. Some people consider repairing it on their own while there are others who like to call a technician and let him do his work.
Let’s have a glance on how to repair an AC at home:
 An air conditioner has two units: a condenser and an evaporator. Keep these two clean and clear of debris as if these two are dirty there won’t be proper working. People in Boca Raton especially call technicians for cleaning these units as half of the repair is done here only.

 Always check the fuses or circuit which are in direct contact with the air conditioner. There might be a fluctuation of current that can cause serious damage, so in this case, immediately call the engineer and get the circuit fixed.


 If there is a problem of no cooling or very less cooling, then check the thermostat and try to lower it down. People in Broward cities; first clean the fins and fan of the condenser in order to repair the air conditioner and then call the technician for any other issue.

 If a person has no knowledge about the electronic item, then it is always preferred to call the engineer and get it repaired rather than doing it yourself and making the situation worse.
Apart from air conditioning services, when the season changes, winters arrive a person need to keep the house warm and heated for comfortable winters.
