i gess you allready try opening your truck with the remote control right? , the reason for this is that in my gc the alarm do not switch off when i open the driver door , so i have to use the remote o go for any of the other 2 doors.

if this do not work you may tray removing the security relay located in side glove compartement (you need to remove a plastic cover held in place by 3 scews), i am not sure but a think that the security one is the one on the top left ( if this do not help do what every vody else do ) ask dale.

try unlocking the driverside door with the key. it is your anti-theft system not allowing the car to stay running.

And you can find the keyless entry fobs all over ebay, I picked up two of them for $15.00.

The only alarm your vehicle may have is the entry alarm. Once it starts, it should stay running. I have done plenty of remote starts on these Jeeps and it is not until 1999 did they start using the Sentry key system.

There is an Anti-Theft system on these jeeps, if the alarm if enabled and alarmed the jeep will not run, it will shut down everytime u start it. the way to disable it is to use the key or remote to unlock the doors.

hey i just had that problem today i changed the fuel pump and filter that was not it. it is the security for your truck.take the key out and lock the doors and get out of the truck.go to the tail gate after 30 seconds and unlock the tail gate with your key. this will reset the security alarm.I hope it wors for you

I had that same problem after my mechanic replaced the Water pump, we used the key to open the lift gate and it reseted the security system.

WOW! I learnt som ting to day! No really, I didn't remember that these Jeeps had that system. I remember back in the day when they first started using these and I had a heck of a time with remote starter installs because for some reason, they didn't always arm.

here is the fix I did go to drivers door take off panel find wiring harness saying key switch take it loose and the part going into harnes cross a wire across the 2 terminals tape it up this will disable the alarm permently I did it a few weeks ago and love not having to unlock doors in a sequence to turn it off and well wait till it goes off for no reason in the middle of the night and you cant get it to turn off that is when I disabled it not hard to do took me like 10 min if you have it right you can lock doors with the button and security light will not light up if it lights check your cross wire hope this helps
