To disable an alarm on a Honda Civic locate the brain of the system. The brain controls the alarm. Unplug the brain from the wire harness.
Not all Honda Civics come with an alarm but I own a 1997 Honda Civic that came with a remote.
You should be able to use your key to unlock the driver's door to deactivate the alarm or to use the remote control. If neither works, there is a button in between the AM/FM and CD button on your Honda stero, and holding it down will deactivate the alarm.

To disable the factory alarm system on a Ford Ranger, you would have to disconnect the remote entry module (REM). However, if you do that, the keyless remote and driver's door keypad will no longer work.
If you no longer have the remote key you will need a transponder (chip) key. You can get one from the dealer, or there are some other places that sell them. You will have to use that key in the Drivers door to unlock the door and this will disarm the alarm.
