Hi folks - I’m have the same issue where the alarm goes off for no apparent reason.

If tailgate warning on , it will probably continue to go off till that is fixed .You may have a faulty tailgate switch , water ingress on switch or broken wiring where it enters tailgate at top ( in rubber sheath / tubing )
