Default Car acting weird when locking with Key Fob

I got my car back from the body shop yesterday. It had been there for about 2 months with a bad battery. I got a new battery for it today. I locked the door tonight with my keyless remote and it didn't chirp the horn and after a couple seconds the lights would start flashing. Anybody know whats going on?

I realized that my horn was not working today, I'm assuming this has something to do with it.

I think I got it figured out. I unhooked the shock sensor and the lights stopped flashing after I locked it or opened and closed the door. The lights flashing was the alarm going off but the horn not working. I'm assuming it was two separate situations making it confusing. I'm thinking the horn it self is bad because it sounded like I could hear the relay clicking when the alarm would go off. Anybody have any input on the horn problem?
