When I drive my stang to work one of the guys I work with likes to stick his arm in through the window, (which I usually leave cracked open because I park right outside one of my stalls), just to set it off. I've always been impressed with the factory alarm.

well it also depends on the sensitivity setting
for awhile mine would go off if you talked to loud next to it or if a car with deep exhaust drove by
it was going off every 10 min or so
oh ya the wind even set it off many times
but after finding and doing the sensitivity adjustment procedure it only goes off if something actualy happens
What's the senstivity adjustment procedure? I didn't know you could do that, and I don't remember seeing anything in the manual about it. Would you enlighten me, please?

Thanks!
I don't remember it exacly but the Lincoln dealer I go to showed it tome its wierd
but I scanned it in
