Car on the Fritz again

So we're without a car until at least tomorrow, but most likely Monday.
We went out lastnight to Food Basics to see if it was open. Well it wasn't and when Grant tried to turn on his car, the engine turned over halfway, and than the horn started honking and the ALL the lights were flashing on and off. We called CAA and they sent out a battery assist guy. Well, we couldn't get it going with that either. Everytime we opened the car doors, the horn would go off and lights would again flash on and off. So we had to get the car towed down to Canadian Tire and we caught a taxi home.
Grant and the CAA guy thinks it has something to do with the alarm system. The battery was low to begin with, so maybe that screwed up the alarm.

It doesn't help that your car has a 90-button keypad on the remote that disables the alarm system. I'm just amazed that you don't need to take a course to learn how to use that thing. Yeesh!
