Default Toad Ai606 - Hazard lights flashing?

Since I recently did a did a reset on my car by leaving the battery disconnected for a few hours, my alarm has been flashing the hazard warning lights twice after the engine is started. Does anyone know what this means?

Alarm seems to function fine otherwise.

never come across this before to be honest, was the alarm disarmed when the battery was disconnected and reconnected?
the alarm should have kept all the settings but depends how long the battery was off for?
does the auto locking on ignition work still etc?

it means that the alarm is seeing a severe drop in voltage causing it to reset each time you start the car. It's probably a bad connection somewhere. Check the battery connections and make sure they are tight.

Mine was doing this a lot on my old civic, it turned out that the battery was fecked! The battery voltage didn't even register on the voltage meter althought it started the car no problem every time.

Forgot about this thread tbh, but it was indeed the car's battery.

Changed for a new one and all has been fine since
