Default Alarm system gone crazy

Why is my alarm system going crazy. I disconnected the shock sensor some time ago but it still goes crazy. Got out of the car tonight, fob lock, beep beep, walked away 60 seconds later the car alarm goes off and the fob unlock wont shut it off, only the key. Some times the car will be sitting armed and it will beep once. Whats the deal?

Have you tried cleaning the key really well, I know, i know sounds stupid right, but my brother had the same problem, buddy of his said to make sure the key was cleaned, and it worked. Hey they say start small right? Good luck!
