I have a major problem here. I can not start the engine on my 1994 Acura Legend 4 door. The problem is the factory installed car alarm is going off and normally i would just turn my key in the driver side door to disarm it and all is good...but there is a problem with both(driver & passenger) side door keyholes...when i put my key in and attempt to turn it wont turn at all...moves about 10% and then it feels like my key is going to break off if i turn it any further...its like both keyholes are jammed. I can not start the car with the alarm going off. I have disabled the battery to stop the alarm and I looked for some kind of valet alarm switch near the hood release but i could not find it. Does anyone here know a way i can disable the alarm so i can drive the car home? Is there a way to do it with the fuses or a valet switch? I was told this info from a mechanic online: "If your desire is to simply disable the factory alarm, that can be done by simply taking a jumper wire and jumping the 2 terminals on the hood switch. By doing this, it will prevent the security system from setting." I dont know what this means exactly. I appreciate any and all help in this matter. My email is extremedawg@hotmail.com Thank you!!!

get any honda/acura key and put it about 1cm in the hole, slowly turn it to unlock while pushing inwards until you feel it start to turn.. it should unlock your doors and you can do the same for the ignition. if it doesnt work, try jiggling it a little as you push and turn.

edit: dont do this to other peoples cars.. its stealing and you will get caught.
