Hi there I will do all I can to help. Is the alarm an aftermarket alarm ?
Customer

Um I think it is a standard one that comes already with the car

ok, give me a few minutes will find a wiring diagram for the system. If it is a factory alarm, most likely there would be a fuse.

ok i found a wiring diagram but the only problem is that the alarm is built into the ignition control unit from what I can tell. pulling the fuse might make the vehicle not start.
Have you tried the key reset procedure?
Customer

1) Insert the key in the ignition
2) Remove the key
3) Insert the key again
4) Remove the key again
5) Insert the key once more. The car should sound its horn once. This confirms that the security system has been set to automatic mode.

ok, did you do any work on the vehicle prior to this alarm issue? have you checked that the trunk and hood are closed properly?
also manually turning the key on the lock cylinder disarms the system. you can try that if you haven't already.

ok, then I am suspecting one of the door locks is sending a signal to the computer that is open when the door itself is closed. To find out which door is activating the alarm, you would have to use a compatible scanner.
If you don't have access to a scanner right now, you can remove the negative battery terminal for now and put it back when you need the car to run so the battery does not get drained.
Customer

Wat is a compatible scanner

an obd scanner that is capable of accessing data on all the computer modules on your vehicle.

Where can I get one n how do the prices run
PabloH108

Automotive Expert
the cheapest one I can think of is around 500 and amazon would be your best bet.
I found one more procedure that sets the alarm into manual mode, which means if you don't lock the doors the system won't be activated.
This is the procedure, let me know if you have tried this one already.
1) Turn the key from on to lock, remove the key.
2) Open a door and close it (this starts the 20 sec. Exit delay)
Steps 3 through 7 must be done within 5 seconds.
3) Insert key in ignition
4) Remove key
5) Insert key
6) Remove key
7) Insert key. The horn should sound twice to confirm the system is set to manual mode.

OK then you need to replace the passenger side door lock actuator. Also if the interior light stays on with all the doors closed it can be the passenger side door switch as well.
