Default A couple of Problems--Electrical/General


Ok, so this is what I am expiencing lately.


When I turn my wheel hard left or hard right. My "Brake Pad Sensor" Comes on warning my my pads are worn. Then when i turn my car off it's gone. Until I make another hard left or right.

Loose Sensor?
Faulty?
Dirty Needs to be cleaned?


My Onboard display... Whenever I start my car & Drive...Let's say I leave me trunk open. It tells me by displaying a picture of car & showing trunk is open.
However, when I leave back doors or front doors open..No displays come on my car just beeps telling me the doors are open. Shouldnt it warn me on the display that the front or back doors are open?

Sensors?


Alarm
When I stick my hand in window the alarm does not go off even tho its armed. but if I leave window open & open door alarm will trip. I read that you can adjust sensitivity... is this true?

Brakes- Check your brake pad wear. If they're ok, take a look at the brake pad sensor wires and make sure neither of them is exposed and could possibly touch.

Doors- I'll take a look at mine tomorrow to compare.

Alarm- how soon after you arm your car do you stick your hand in the window? If I'm not mistaken (which means I have NFI what I'm talking about), the motion sensors are on a time delay.
