Which Seibon hood is it? Is there a vent near the "hood open" switch?

Probably because the hood sensor isn't contacting the hood (it is the rubber spring-looking mechanism in the front passenger corner). My aftermarket alarm stopped working alltogether until we disconnected this and replaced it entirely with a mercury level sensor.
