Someone install an aftermarket alarm at some point in the car's past? Check under the dash
Hope you didn't put an aftermarket distributor in

Yes checked all fuses ..i think my wife hooked the battery charger up backwards ..that's what blew the battery block fuse ..could that have tried the computer ?
Of course she says she hooked it up right buy why would my battery fuse blew ...

Battery fuse should have protected the computer, but maybe not. Do you know someone else with a similar car you can test with their computer?
