Do you have an aftermarket alarm hooked up to you're car, cut off switch etc..?

LOL, no I didn't name my car christine...I don't believe my car has an alarm (if it does it doesn't work) On the under side of my dash (driver side) there is a little box no more than 2-3 inches long and inch wide and like and inch in depth, however it's just hanging and its wired up, and it flashes a little red light...just curious on what that could be

It's probably an aftermarket alarm. I would get rid of that thing fast. If that doesn't fix it, call the GHOSTBUSTERS!
