Dead Key Fob+No Car Smarts=Start Kill...Help?
I have a 94 Accord but the anti-theft system is not stock. There is no brand name on the key fob and the Honda dealership said they had no idea what brand it was either. All i know is it is pretty old. The key fob unlocks the doors and disarms the kill start and also flashes the headlights. If I unlock the doors with the key instead of the button on the fob and the key is put into the ignition and turned to start it, there is no noise at all and nothing happens. So now the question part.
My key fob died the other day (which has happened before and it just needed a new battery) so I bought a new battery for it but that did nothing. I've always had problems with the stupid thing and not i's completely dead. Without the fob to disarm the anti theft, I am unable to start my car. I only had one fob because the original owner kept the other one and I cannot get a hold of them. I know practically nothing about cars so this is probably an easy fix but withoout knowing how to fix it, I will have to tow my car to a shop and have them do it. I'm guessing i just need to snip a wire here and there for a quick fix. If so, could i get a step by step on how to do so? Thanks in advance.

Look under the dash and see if you can see the alarm brain. If so unplug it. If the starter kill is in the brain. look on the ignition harness and see if you can see a relay on it. Cut it off and attach the starter wire back toghter.
