2000 Honda Accord 4 cyl Automatic 78000 miles

Even when i turn my car off there is a little clicking noise that remains, and all the lights (dashboard, radio, AC controls) flicker at the same time with the noise.

If the alarm is factory set, close all doors and use the key to lock and unlock the driver door to disable it.

If it is after market alarm system, they are many variations and some might be disabled with the fuse removal and some requires the control unit to be unplugged.
