Alarm keeps going off?

I saw smoke coming from the front end of the car. I had to move it quickly because of another car and so I was focused more on where I was going to park it rather then anything else. I noticed the burning smell shortly after starting it up and noticed the smoke after parking it.

My next step is to purchase a battery charger this weekend.

I wish I could offer more info.

Thanks for your any advice.

Hi:
Without knowing where it came from, it would be nothing more than a guess. Look carefully at as much of the wiring as you can. Look for anything that looks melted pay attention to. When you recharge the battery, pay attention if it starts to happen again. If it does, immediately disconnect the battery. Keep a fire extinguisher near. I don't know what to expect.

Be careful and let me know what happens.

Thanks Joe!
I will hopefully get the battery charger tomorrow, along with an extinguisher and see what happens. I'll let you know.
I really appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Kathy
