Flashing parking light / car not running

[Syllect]

Hello
Anyone experience this oddity...car has been parked for a day (obviously not running but locked) and parking lights started flashing and the horn was going but very quietly. It happened last night, lasted for about 2 minutes before I unlocked it and started it no problem. Same thing just happened. I started it, went for short drive all seems normal. Your suggestions are appreciated. 2015 3.8 sedan

something set off the car's alarm system - that weak horn blowing is a pitiful attempt at scaring of an intruder.

Thanks. That's what I thought but not sure what could have triggered the alarm.

Found the issue...driver door actuator. Easy to replace and $300.

How did you find it?

A few days later, the driver door wouldn't unlock. In through passenger door, started the car and shut it off. Radio stayed on etc. It's all controlled by opening driver door, including alarm. Process of elimination..hoped it was the actuator and all is working fine now. Lol

I have to replace left front door lock actuator. Do you have to remove the door glass?
