I've got a door latch sensor that's randomly acting up (showing door ajar when its not) that's been setting my alarm off intermittently.
Dang “hood open” showed up the other day, didn’t think much of it until the alarm went off at the legion.

Seems I have the f150 horn, the horn with 1 side blown out. Sounds embarrassing. Gotta get that fixed asap

I remember hearing insects/flies can set off the motion sensors inside.

I say battery.

Glad you ran outside with both barrels. :893Chainsaw-Smilie-
This happened to me on Gen2 Raptor 2 nights in a row. It was a few moths that were hiding during the day and would come out every night around 11pm. First thought I was getting jacked, then was sure there was some sort of short that would develop with relative humidity increase...so much simpler. Glad I read this before taking it in. Also changed alarm settings to perimeter sensor in case I didn't shoo all of them out. Not popular with my neighbors at the moment

After a few false alarms I disconnected the motion sensors in the upper console. I didn't want to have to select the setting to turn the interior sensor off every time I got out.

This morning ,at dawn, my alarm went off three times. That I know of. I can't hear the alarm inside the house. Only noticed it because of the flashing lights while making my morning java.
The alarm has randomly sounded before, I suspected the hood latch, as suggested by the internet.
Ford Pass did not know the alarm went off.
Went looking for a way to turn the alarm off and found that some people disarm the inside sensor. The only sensor you can turn off.
First drive of the day I noticed a large fly buzzing around the cabin.

I suspect the false alarm is the result of that fly...
