Hey guys,

I have a 2014 Ram sport 1500. The past week every time I lock the truck with the key FOB within a half hour the security alarm goes off. I unlock the truck reset alarm, and within another 20-30 min it does it again. The only thing I can think of that could be contributing to this is that I washed the motor bay with simple green and light spraying of the water hose last week while washing the truck. The problem started 2 days later. Any suggestions on what the problem could be, or what to check?

Thanks in advance, Travis

You try pulling the battery cable off and "resetting" the truck? That may help, just be aware you will lose all your settings.

Try the batt trick.

Where are the keys when the security alarm go off? (Make sure you're not butt-dialing the panic,,,,,,)

I haven't tried disconnecting battery yet. I thought it was me accidentally hitting the key, but after 2 times in a row the first day it was doing it I put the key on top of my desk and within five minutes it went off again. Last night I kept the truck unlocked due to it constantly going off, but today its been locked all day without any issue. It has me puzzled. I also tried manually locking the truck last night and it still went off after a few minutes.
