Yip probably a fault in the alarm, looks to be going off but with no sound so probably had the siren disconnected to bodge the problem

When you changed the battery was it raining?? did you manage to get water in your fuse box(fuses could be damp) My dad is having the same problem with his Bug WRX and he has no alarm system fitted, same symptoms you have, we put it down to damp/wet fuses and sprayed them with WD40 and it went away for a few weeks, but since we have had a lot of rain the problem has come back

yea dampness could be a big part of it as I'm doing it up at the moment and its down the side of my house in the shade so it is damp inside ,,I've tried double tapping the l;lock button on the fob and apparently it disarms the interior sensors and so far ...that has worked but id rather disconnect them so i don't have the problem again ...
