Would put this in the correct section except it gets as much traffic as the Sahara in there.

Everytime I wash my bike and get alot if water on the tank the alarm goes bananas, starting this ticking sound from the box when disarmed and silent when armed for a peroid of 30 secs then goes off. So the only way off silencing it is to have the ignition on or to disconnect the battery. It only seems to sort itself out when left overnight or if I go for a long ride. So it must be water causing a contact somewhere... but where

Anyone else had the same problem with a Spyball Patriot?
