Default 1990 Honda accord, very hard time starting.

When I try to start me accord it sounds like the battery is dead. I have replaced two batteries in the past three weeks. I have already had the alternator tested and it is fine. The previous owner use to have lots of lights on it and then he ripped them out and left the wirring in the car. Also, their was an alarm system instaled and the remote to it quit working and now I cant turn off the alarm and I was wondering if the alarm could be whats killing my battery even though it only stays on for a minute or two after the car is turned off. If you can give me any suggestions i would be very greatful.

Thank you, Ben Smith

check your main relay....I had the same problem with my 90 accord,(thats why i sold it!!!)...Also tape up the ends of those wires, cause if they touch one another it will send a shortage through your car....

Did you say you tested your alternator, but not your starter? If you havent tested the starter, that might be a good idea.
