Question
QUESTION: 98 honda accord came with pursuit car alarm-lost only alarm remote, toggle switch that was on floor is gone( only white & grey wire is hanging) -the car is stuck in a parking lot -how do i start it - desperate

ANSWER: Ok then, get over to the local car alarm shop,
or Best Buys will have a valet switch that
will fit for your
alarm.

In the mean time twist those 2
free hanging wires together, turn on the ignition,
hold both wires to ground until the siren chirps.

That should reset and place the alarm into
over ride for now. Nothing accept the keyless entry
if installed will operate until you repeat the
same steps.

Then get a new switch and you're all set.

Have a good day.
Let me know if you were
successful.
