Lots of times the hatch switch breaks. I ended up unplugging it, lights don't stay on anymore and my alarm doesn't go off anymore at 3:00am.

Check the delay timer-I had the same problem with my 85. Solved it with the help of this forum.

Mine would do it if I used the key to unlock the door and didn't turn the key back to the straight up position. Good luck, Robert
