Nissan 200SX Door Problem

Sometimes when i lock my car by remote i get an alarm sound, it keeps going "Beeeeeeeeeeeep" non stop untill i open it up again.
Its very annoying when i come home at night and it happens, either i don't lock the car or wake up the ppl next door.
It comes and goes, and i have absolutely no clue what it could be.

Can anyone help me?

Check all doors and hood alignment. There is a possibility one of the door ajar switchs is not being pushed far enough and any vibrations can result in the switch being activated to trigger the alarm.

While drivng do you have the door ajar indicator flashing intermittently? If not, the hood switch would be the most likely cause. Try disconnecting it to test.
