We are away in the van for the first time this year and the van has developed an intermittent single beep accompanied by the exterior lights flashing once in time with the beep. Has anyone any ideas what it could be.

Could it be the tilt sensor needing to be reset. I believe this can be done from the remote. Had that issue with the last caravan.
No Bertieboy. Fridge door shut. Rang Sargent earlier and they think it's the battery in the alarm box needs replacing. Will replace and update post.
Thats not your problem, I had to do the same. If you are getting the bleep, im 100% certain the issue is conected to your alarm. Im assuming your alarm is Sargent rather than Nordelectronica. If so, although the tilt sensor is automatic, it can be adjusted, I quote
On your remote, press and hold P (program button) to access the three programminbg modes. One long beep is the tilt sensor sensitivity mode. Press the arm/disarm button to set the sensitivity,
One beep = low sensitivity for windy conditions
Two Beeps = standard sensitivity
Three Beeps = High Sensitivity
I suspect your sensor is set at high mode. If at stage one you miss the one long beep, simply cycle around until you come back to it. I think just pressing the P button will cycle the modes.
I will have a go when I get home as I don't want to mess up and have the alarm going off on site. Something else I noticed today is that the red light on the PIR is permanently on and doesn't blink when you move around like it used to.
