Ive been getting a lot of False Laser alerts. I doesnt J out either. It has 3 horizontal lines in the number count and then just stops.
What is going on?

Define a lot. Once/minute, once/hour?
The majority of V1 laser falses on SoCal freeways come from LCC(laser cruise control) equipped vehicles, usually Infinity SUVs. The one in your barn, I can't expalin without more info. LCD screens in your vehicle is one possible explanation. Also, horse barn in SoCal? WTF?

Sounds like an LCD screen as was mentioned above.
Potential sources of laser falses are covered in the manual:
Laser False Alarms
- Red neon, from stores and occasionally from brake lights of other cars (example: Chevy TrailBlazer, GMC Envoy, Olds Bravada and Buick Rainier), can imitate the characteristics of speed laser. Solution: Move away from source.
- The electrical systems of some cars generate electromagnetic interferences, triggering laser alerts. How to test: Try V1 in a different car. Possible solution: Try relocating detector within the interfering car; also, your dealer may have a factory fix.
- Adaptive cruise control systems using laser may cause laser alerts. Solution: Switch to normal cruise control

Yeah i have an LCD screen. HMmmmmm
My old 94 model did when in line of weather radar. It would alert about every 15 seconds when the radar rotated around with a front laser then a rear laser warning. Interstate north of Nashville Tennesee and near Moulton Alabama. The new 3.872 does not do it!
The V1 is very sensitive with laser.
Here are some possible sources:
1. Sun
2. Several Infiniti models. (FX, GX, G37)
3. Amber flashing road sign, I have one near by my place that triggers an alert every single time!
Please take the time to read the V1 manual laser section.
Pay attention to the weather and landscape and ask yourself if laser can be present if you get an alert.
The best protection from laser is a jammer, but that will be another conversation.
* J outs will not occur on any signal but Ka Radar.
