parking lights won't turn off?!

got back to my car tonight from a club and right when i hit my alarm button to disarm it, the parking lights came on, at 1st i thought maybe somebody tried to break in while i was away but there were no signs, drove home and forgot about it...when i shut off my car and turned off the lights they were still on!!! i'm really tired right now so i'm not gonna try to fix it til tomorrow, so for now i just disconnected the battery...any ideas? thanks

Sounds like your aftermarket alarm is broken.

Unplug it
