NEED HELP... how to start car

Long story short, alarm was set off but the key fob thing doesn't work. Now car won't start. The red light is flashing really fast. When I put the key in it does nothing.

Well, apparently there is an override switch located somewhere but I can't find it. Anyone know where it is?

I don't know where a reset button is or override switch. The only thing I can think of to do is get in the car and lock yourself in, then unlock it from the inside with the controls on the door, then try to start it. It might work and it might not. It's worth a shot tho I guess. Haha. Good luck on this one. If I find anything on it I'll post it up for you.

Try unlocking the driver door with the key and hold it for 2 or 3 seconds to disarm the alarm manually. That might do it ..
