Car Alarms: 1993 accord, honda accord ex, dash area

Question
We just bought a 1993 honda accord ex.  It has no key fob.  It drove wonderfully for a day.  On the second day we drove it and when we stopped my son reached for the key to disconnet the house key from the chain and the car died.  It has not started since.  It will turn over but will not start.  My husband disconnected the battery.  I am not sure how long it has been on but the stereo shows a "CODE" blinking on it.  I have looked for a toggle switch under the dash but cant seem to find it.  Can you help troubleshoot?  Everything I have read souds like it is the anti theft but as I said we only bought it used a couple of days ago.

Answer
Hmmm, ok, there is no "factory" alarm that I know of.
The radio may have a code in it, and that's what triggered
and after market system. If the key in the drivers door,
turn left, then right to open, does not disarm and
allow the starter to engage, you might have other
issues.

If your system is after market:

The Parking Lights Would Flash, A siren Is Going Off,
An LED Is Flashing As Well, and You May Have A Shock/Impact
sensor set Too High Too. Try The Following Procedure
To Disarm/Disable It.

Now let's try to put the system into overide mode.

As far as the valet/overide button, it's a hidden
device-switch, a little spring loaded micro button,
red or black possibly and is probably down under
the dash area, near your knee/leg. In some
remote start/alarm combos, the antenna on the window
glass will also have an override/valet button.
Older sytems will have a flip type toggle switch.

When you locate the button or switch,
turn on the ignition key, press and hold
in the button until the alarm chirps 1 time
(for toggle types, key on, flip switch in the
opposite direction, then key off)

This should over ride the system, and only the
keyless entry part, if installed, would still be
operating.

You would get a single chirp to confirm from the siren.
The LED (light emiting diode) light in the dash
should also go on solid. This is valet/overide/reset.
This should correct any issues like starter disable,
or anti-hijack. Your keyless entry, if installed,
will still be operable. The have it inspected for the
falsing issues you are experience at a local shop.

You would repeat the same steps to toggle
back into user mode.

That should do it for 90% of the after market alarms
out there. If all else fails, contact a local car
alarm installer to inspect, and help repair.

let me know what you discover.
