Default 1997 ranger how to disarm factory alarm system

My wife bought a 1997 ford ranger back in 1997. I think it is a 4.0 engine with automatic transmission with 4 wheel drive. We have lost the remote entry fob. Have not had any problems until recently. The alarm system goes off when I turn on ignition system. Now the truck will not start. I have disconnected the battery positive terminal. We let a friend borrow truck and it died on him. He cut a purple wire to try to disarm system after looking at something on you tube. I would like to disarm system so truck will start. System is not needed.
