no aftermarket alarm, but i do have aftermarket AEM A/F guage, and autometer guage mounted with the frog eyes behind my steering wheel... i really dont think it will be from that arear behind the wheel... im going to call the dealer tomorrow..

It could also be a loose electrical terminal box which is behind your drivers side dash. It is red and white. It gets loose on me and I just reach underneth the dash and push it back on towards the driver.

ok, this sounds like a problem I just had yesterday, it has been extremely cold this winter, yesterday it was warm and raining, my wipers were not stopping when I turned them off, and twice they turned themselves on out of the blue. Today it is better but I have a SRS light on the dash.

I alternate between Anti-Lock, Door Ajar and Check Engine lights when cold and wet. Also my drivers tail blows fuses. I sealed the fender hole by the kick panel up, cleaned the harnesses, still doing it. Soon as I find out what it is.... I will seal it up like it owes me money.
