sounds like you have an aftermarket system, what kind of alarm is it and did you have it installed or was it on there before?

your gonna want to take it to an alarm shop to have them fix it, because there are soo many different ways an alarm system can lock up. Plus there may or may not be an internal kill switch that needs t be reset.
