Haunted House

I'll appreciate any hint on how to troubleshoot this.
My domoticz system has been running on a RPI2 with the razberry card since almost 2 years flawlessly. And growing to almost a hundred devices.
Recently bought a RPI3 and tried to make it work just moving the razberry and sdcard to it. it didn't work.
So in order not to break the current system, which is still on v 2.3530 I installed a new SD from scratch using 4834.
All went well, for a while.
Suddenly the blinds in the kitchen started to open and close when the fibaro motion in the kitchen detected motion. None of my scripts do that. Avoided the issue temporarily taking the fibaro battery out.
Then in one of the rooms. When the fibaro (different one) detected motion it switched on all lights in the house. It ended up without battery and in a drawer until I find the time to understand what's wrong.
Today the living room. As soon as the fibaro there detects motions, switches on all lights in the house and opens all the blinds. When removed it battery some sort of alarm was enabled so all the lights in the house started blinking. My house was like a Christmas tree for many minutes.
Tired of it I've moved the razberry card back to my old RP2. Started it, put the battery back into one of the fibaro motion and there it goes, all lights on all blinds up.
What I have done:
+ Tested in both the RPI2 with 3530 and RPI3 with 4834, same behavior
+ Removed temporarily all the scripts, left it naked, only devices and associations (a couple, and unrelated). same behavior
+ Checked the same oddness happens with the 3 fibaro motion sensors, so don't think it is related to a single device malfunctioning
+ Thought about some possible corruption, but I repro it in both systems.
Only common thing is the razberry card and the domoticz database. I've used the same original one from the 3530 in the 4834. Funny thing is all continue to work smooth if I just keep the fibaro motions out of the system.
Any clue where I should be looking? I've started to admit will need to rebuild all from scratch, but even in that case as all is working fine without the fibaros, I'm worried the problem might be somewhere else and will get into the same situation.
thanks in advance for any hint.
