I NEED HELP IN DIAGNOSEING THE ALARM SYSTEM ON THE CAR, THE CAR WILL GO INTO "PANIC" MODE WHILE PARKED AND THE BATTERY WILL RUN DOWN. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL COME ON WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN. COUSE THIS BE A SENSOR(S) BAD OR GOING OUT, IF SO WHERE ARE THEY LOCATED AND HOW DO I TEST?

This would be your "Body Control Module" giving you these problems. But you'll have to probe the wiring and connectors to isolate the problem.

If you'd like to tackle this yourself, you should purchase a "Single Vehicle" subscription to an on-line service such as AllData, or Mitchell 1. This will give you your wiring diagrams and specs to guide you, as well as come in handy on your next project.
