Can anyone tell me where the control unit for the alarm is situated on a 1999 (FL) D2 A8. Thanks.

The system wiring diagram states that the "Interior Monitoring Sensors (ultra sound) control module" is on the left side of the luggage compartment. I guess that'll be forward of the access panel covering the CD player etc and behind the carpet panelling (where the alarm horn is situated).

Thanks, that's very helpful. My alarm keeps activating and going off as soon as the time for it to set after locking the car with the transmitter expires. Once it has gone off once it doesn't do it again until the car is again locked with the transmitter.

It started doing it after I had changed the boot CD player. Looks like I may have somehow dislodged some wiring to the unit.

Thanks for the information.
