Re: Clifford alarm.
Which clifford? Do you know which sensor is being overly sensitive?
My old clifford also wouldn't lock while the turbo timer was running (although I think it was a bodged install, as it also kept some of my accessories on until the door was opened). However I seriously question the usefulness of turbo timers and, personally, would just ditch the timer

That's not entirely helpful!
I guess you could buy a cliffnet wizzard cable and software and hook it up to tweak the system? Or take it to an alarm place? Or if you can identify which model you have then you could try to find installation instructions to help you troubleshoot.

Re: Clifford alarm.
You mean the proximity sensor?
I think you can adjust the sensitivity of it by accessing the main control box

Re: Clifford alarm.
That literally means nothing to me lol. When it rains the car screams at me like every 10 mins. Also Mrs parks next to me and looks through window and it screams at her lol.

Re: Clifford alarm.
It's described in the 650 installation manual (you can google for it or send me your email me for a copy). Your alarm probably isn't a 650 though, so who knows if the instructions are the same? The instructions involve using a G5 button which your 4-button remote doesn't have!
You need to identify which alarm you have otherwise we're shooting in the dark.

Re: Clifford alarm.
You'll almost certainly be digging about behind trim panels then. My old 650 mk1 in my donor was jammed up above the fan blow inside the dash, above the glove box. A faff to get to for sure. No idea where yours is though.
I'd suggest searching through your paperwork for an install certificate or receipt.
