I got a stock 00 Jeep and it has the factory lock and unlock and the panic remote with it. Does the parking light suppose to blink every time I use the lock, unlock button? When I hit the panic button, it makes a sound but no light flashing. What could it be or is that how it came factory?

It gotta blink. I have never seen a car/truck that does not blink when it locked or unlocked. Also panic part should always have a headlight flashing, I know that for sure.

Nope, no lights will blink. All you'll get is a chirp of the horn upon locking it up, and a honking horn when using the Panic button.

No flash here either. Anybody know if this is something that can be changed with programming, like the horn?

I may have to give the panic a go tomorrow to see if they flash now.

GM vehicles are programmable. Jeeps might be as well. Check your owners manual
