it is an aftermarket alarm...or keyless entry at least...and poorly installed... if you know nothing about alarm systems have someone professionally uninstall it... most of the time it is more complicated than unhooking the brain and cutting off all of those wires..and there may be other pieces to the system mounted elsewhere in the vehicle

ouch, that is a horrible install

it will probably not work correctly, because I am sure that he had to cut the original wires to wire up to the alarm.

just go to the bcm, and connect the cut wires
