Answer
If you mean that the headlights are flashing,
and the car's horn is honking, then yes, this
is the Ford Mustang "FACTORY" alarm. You need
to locate the FACTORY ALARM DISARM dark green/purple
|-| in either door harness, splice into it and
then put it to a solid chassis ground.
This permanantly disables the factory alarm.

However,

If it's the parking lights that flash, there is
a siren, and an flashing LED in your dash area,
this is an aftermarket system with starter kill.
Then you'll need to try this.
Put the key in the ignition, and turn forward
all the way just before cranking. Then within
5 seconds, press and hold in the valet/overide
button, found under the dash area,
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area goes on solid, and the siren chirps once.
(Your valet switch might be the toggle (on/off) type.
in this case, key on, flip switch in opposite direction,
key off.)

This should reset the alarm, and reset
the grounded relay on the starter wire,
allowing you to start it. At this point,
the only thing working would be
keyless entry from the alarm,
if it came equipped.

Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to usable armed mode.

That should do it.
If you want to remove it at this point,
take it to your neighborhood installer
for this, or buy the wiring chart (www.wirewerx.com)
for the vehicle, and reverse engineer it wire
by wire, until safely removed.

If it does not work out this way,
you will have to replace the system
with one you know how to operate
and what to expect. Don't want to
get stuck in another bad situation.

Let me know what happens.

Good luck.
