you don't mention age/model, but easiest by far is simply to disconnect the battery for a couple of hours..................

take the positive lead off the battery leave it over night, replace it in the morning, I believe this will do it

Won't you have to re-code the alarm if you do that?

If its a newage find someone local with a SECS monitor, eg a PSI3, and get them to trail the lead into your car and do a reset.
