Avoid the alternator and put a plastic bag over your alarm. In fact, might wanna cover up the alternator too just to be safe.
I fix cars.

I cover anything which has any sign of an electrical connection with plastic. I also disconnect my battery to be safe. Some of those tricky areas behind wires and connectors, I just use a wet tooth brush for that.

Also remember, after you spray the degreaser...leave it for 5mins before bringing the hose in.
