I just had an after market alarm installed on my car a few days ago an I just noticed it tonight when I was driving an had my brights on an would turn them on an off the lights would dim/flicker an also when I hit the brakes my head lights would dim/ flicker. Also I installed a chip earlier today too an it was suppose to help give the car more horsepower an better mpg. But after I started driving it after I installed the chip when I would be stopped for about 20 secs at a stop light an try to go the car would idle really low an cut off, then I took the chip out. Could the lights be cause from the little blue lights they installed with the alarm an that is draining the battery? Anoone have any ideas?

Why would you install an alarm on a car that already has one
