Alarm problems

My 2002 civic alarm is going off for no reason, Alarm LED well flash three times. This indicates, open hood. Just need to get location of that switch, I pull hood latch and could not find the switch... Could some point me in the right direction to find it? Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Alarm problems

It is likely a single wire ( line grounded through micro switch on hood latch) On my 2010 the wire is right along the frame above the radiator.
