Default Factory alarm problems on 97 Trans-Am

Ok, so whenever you lock the doors and arm the alarm, a few seconds later the alarm starts going off. When that happens it'll stop if you press the panic button like normal. It even does this if you lock the doors with the switches inside the car, but naturally doesn't do it when manually locking the doors with the slider.

We're thinking it might be the BCM as nothing with the wiring looks out of place.

So, a couple questions:

1.) Is there a BCM in a 94 Formula, and if so, is it interchangeable with the one in my 97 Trans-Am?
2.) If it's not the BCM, what else could be causing this problem

Default

No BCM until 96. Check the plug ins to your BCM for any corrosion.
