Default Alarm goes on for no reason

Any ideas why my 05 Roadster LTD alarm goes on for no reason...car not being broken into bumped, jacked etc. I sat and my backyard alarm keeps going off every half hour to an hour. Pulling fuse does not stop it. Is there a way I can disable the system until I can get it to dealer in 3 days. I see a few shotguns pointed at my car by very annoyed nieghbors.

there is a reason for everything, your battery is dying.

it either needs to be fully charged, or the electrolyte is fairly low in the cells. top off with distilled water, and plug in charger.

You don't want to use regular water with the minerals. With as many minerals suspended within the liquid, a short can occur from cell to cell in the battery. Bad things happen with each cell bring about 2.1V to the tanle...

The problem was the PSE pump. Can anyone tell me what that is? Other than creates a vacuum to run locks
