False alarm after exactly 4 minutes

I have an occasional problem with both of my motion sensors on my alarm. Sometimes, after arming one will trigger with a false alarm exactly 4 minutes after it was armed. Sometimes pulling the battery helps. Sometimes it doesn't. It's intermittent. Batteries are less than a year old and when swapping then with door sensor batteries the problem stays with the motion sensor. Any ideas?

    for giggles I would try covering the sensor(s) and arm and disarm a few times as in trying to figure out if it is the sensor or if it is sensing something. Try lowering the sensitivity?

      I can't imagine it's actually detecting anything. No one is in the house when this happens and it is completely consistent when it happens. Always exactly 4 minutes according to the event history. If it were detecting something actually happening the timing should he random.
