Hi,
Have a 94 mark viii. The alarm goes off whenever it wants to even when it's NOT set. How can I fix it or disable it? Thanks

The hood sensor seems to be the most notorious reason for the alarm to just go off all by itself. Start by lookin there. Once you pop the hood it is a lil sensor on the passenger side right next to the air box.

Do you have a aftermarket remote start system?
Check the hood switch, it's the most common fault.

I have the same problem with my 94. I thought mine went off because of the crazy air bag suspension, thanks Ray for the advice on this too. You are very knowledgeable.

That seems to be the consensus. Thank you

My 93 likes to go off after a car wash but after opening and shutting the hood a couple of times it shuts off

Purchase a new hood sensor and it should go away. Call Max at 5 Star Ford 1-800-866-1520 ext. 236 and he can hook you up. :Beer
