Question
i have an alarm system in my 99 honda accord that also starts the car with the remote. recently the remote lost and the button under the dash broke, but the alarm had been off.yesterday my battery lost power, but when the power was fixed, it sets off the alarm and cuts off the switch, and the alarm is making noise every time I connect the battery. Now i can't start the car. What can I do to start the car and stop the noise?

Answer
It's an after market system
from your description.
(valet switches do not exsist in
factory alarms/keyless entry.

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, cut off the switch part,
leaving the 2 wires that were connected, free.

Then twist 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.
