Ok then there must be a problem with the module. To determine what the problem is you will need to use a scan tool to read the trouble codes (if any are stored) and also to view the data in the antitheft module to see what inputs / outputs are being recognized by the module. This will determine whether you have a problem with the key, receiver, module, or any other part of the system. Since there are not any common problems for this issue, I can not recommend any specific repair for this fault. If the module has any trouble codes stored let me know what they are and I will be able to pinpoint a specific problem for this issue.
There is a fuse box under the hood and one on the driver side of the dashboard.

How do you take the fuse box out

You have to remove the bolts holding it in and simply unplug all the electrical connectors.

Will doing this allow the car to still drive? Will the car turn on? As of right now it doesn't even with the ignition turned

No. If you remove the fuse box it will not run.

Hi, I have a honda accord 1997. My emergency breaking alarm won't turn off. Mechanic's Assistant: Have you tried locking and unlocking the driver's side door using the key itself? That is what makes the alarm currently go off. For some reason, whenever we do it the regular way, it turns it back on Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Accord yourself? What have you tried so far? We've tried looking for the fuse box to disable the horn, and ended up disconnecting the battery. We've also tried playing with the key in the ignition which has worked before, but for some reason that is not working either Mechanic's Assistant: Anything else you want the Mechanic to know before I connect you? We believe the problem is with the door sensor because even with the usual way of disabling the alarm, something keeps it going off. We are definitely not experts, not by a long shot.藍
