can someone figure this out?!?

I REALLY have no idea what's going on with my car.... everytime i turn it on, the headlights keep turning on and off! Also, my alarm is going off constantly. This is a problem because my battery is drained by the end of one day. I have a 1991 toyota supra with a 7mgte motor (turbo of course). (my blinker arm is a little messed up too, it might have something to do with the headlights.)

it happens only when you start the car? weird... have you tried to reset the alarm? lock the doors to arm the alarm and then put the key in the lock, then unlock it turning it all the way to the right, this should disarm it... i dunno if that will solve your problem but its worth a try

try disconecting your negative battery port and checking all fuses. if that doesn't then try checking out your wiring. u'll need a test light.

Also, on the battery, there is three postive wires branching off, and then there is one negative cord that connects to the battery, and branches off to the body on the inside of the hood... I don't know if this is factory, but it sure confused the hell out of me! I'll be able to take some pictures in the next couple of weeks...

3 wires off the + is probably not factory because i had the same thing and it was for a shity alarm rig and i just took one wire off.
