On this car I have replaced most of the components that would cause the car not starting. I am not getting any OBD2 codes from the computer.

A mechanic suggested that the car alarm might be causing the problem. I.E. Disabling the car from starting.

How can you reset or disable the alarm so that I can see if this is the problem?

Thanks

What is it doing- Is it cranking over and refuses to start?

Yes, the car cranks but does not turn over.

The car had been sitting out in the open for 2-3 months.

I've replaced the battery, plugs, wires, cap and rotor, but still no spark to the plugs.

No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, camshaft and crankshaft sensors- Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
