Manually disabling factory alarm
I have a '12 Honda Civic LX Sedan. How do I disable the alarm once I've opened the car? I can't find my keys and I may have locked it inside?
I have the factory spare which doesn't have a key fob to unlock the doors remotely. I want to disable the alarm to keep from a annoying my neighbors. I want to be able to start the car with the spare. Because if the keys are not there, I may have left them in the wife's car and she works 40 mins away. And I need to pick someone up from the airport on 2 hours. Yes what a way to start my day. 😖

Is the alarm going off randomly ??
Often it is the hood switch that causes those symptoms if so.
Just watch the red/orange alarm indicator on cluster, it will stop flashing once unlocked.

If it does, your car is broken.
