It could be the alarm. Or it could be the hazard flasher unit. The alarm shouldn't have a relay, for the control module. It will have a fuse. At least one. That may be in the main fuse panel, or if the alarm is aftermarket, inline. Many alarm modules also have a fuse in the control module. My reference guide doesn't list Alfa Romeos.
