Default Factory security system....

Ok I found my little factory security system box under the dash...Has a big plug with wires plugged in to it..My question is this, how do I disable it properly? I have read start the jeep and unplug it with the jeep running and let it run a bit to relearn things..So I am curious if anyone has done this or knows anything about it? Oh and this is on a 91 XJ...

Why do you want to disable the alarm? If I may ask.

I've seen them on eBay but check with you stearlership they used to would program it for free if bought from them. I believe thay are still available for a '91.

Well at the dealership it's about $100 for one..I could have a newer model installed for that and get 2 remotes with lithium batteries..

That sounds like it would be well worth $100 to protect your Jeep and the contents thereof.

Well there is a local place that sells new,used and aftermarket jeep parts going to call them first and see if they have any used in stock that I can program for my jeep. We'll see what happens..I may get one at some point but for now I just don't have the cash..

Even if you do have an alarm cherokees are very easy to steal my friends was stolen in the middle of a mall parking lot in the middle of the day when they called the cops to report it the officer said that cherokees are one of the simplest vehices to steal there up there w/ the early 3ed generation Dodge Ram

Yep they are easy as pie to steal but since I can't completely disarm it or remove it from the system I have to either get a remote or deal with it..Heck keyless entry would be nice..the alarm part can go but the keyless entry is nice..

Searched ebay and the internet and so far I can't seem to find any keyless fob's for anything older then 93....
