Default 00 gs400 battery replaced, horn going off? Help!

My battery died since I left the lights on overnight, I went ahead and got a new battery installed it and as soon as I hooked it up the horns are going off and the hazards stay on.. Did this happen to anyone?? Maybe a short somewhere?

Anti-theft system kicked in. If the remote button doesn't turn it off lock/unlock the drivers door from the outside with the key

The alarm is designed to go off when the battery is reconnected, read the manual for all the ways you can trigger your alarm. Unrelated to your injectors.
