Alarm problems!
Hoping someone can help with this! I have a Clifford intelliguard 950 on my Escort, it was installed by an approved installer, been fine for the previous owner and me up until tonight! Came back from meeting me misses from work, parked the car as normal on the drive, it sat there armed for over an hour, then it started making a warning sound, not a normal beep, more a squawk! every ten seconds or so? I've done the led flash zone thing but can't work out what they mean!?
I know people don't rate Clifford, but I've had 'em before with no problems and think they're ok, and besides, i can't afford a new alarm so changing it isn't an option! I've checked all the doors, boot, bonnet and sunroof! Any help will be much appreciated as I've had to put it in valet mode for now!

Trouble is, i've parked it everyday in the same place on my drive for the last 6 months and it's been fine?! I stood out there and waited after I armed it and it made the warning sound! I can't work out the led sequence either! It flashed 3, 4, 7, 3, 3, 8!

Quick update on this! The new fob batteries worked for a day and a half! Then it started playing up again! I had to put it in valet mode until I could have a look at it! Had a look at it last Thursday. I took some of the interior apart to try and find the proxy sensor control box.. Took a couple of attempts to find it but i did! 
Turned the adjuster, tested it, turned it the other way, tested it, and so far so good! 
At least I didn't have to take it somewhere and pay over the odds! Good outcome in the end!
