Hi everyone, I am new to this forum. I have a question to ask. My jeep passive alarm system is not workin, and I want to know if their is a way to bypass the system. Their is an alarm relay that needs to be bypassed as well. Please some one help me

captainwoot

are you talking about a factory alarm sys? Do you have factory keyless entry? otherwise it is aftermarket, best answer is to remove if it is not working correctly
Good luck!

Is it the Mopar EVS alarm? I have this alarm and need to use the unlock button on the remote to allow the engine to start.

lock all the doors with the key, then unlock the pass side with the key first then the drivers side with the key. that is how to get the factory alarm to behave

I don't have the remote. I tryed to lock and then unlock all the doors and it still doesn't work. could the relay be causing the problem.


Let me start by saying I love my jeep cherokee. I have owned 3 so far, but this one is the most problomatic one I have ever owned. I try to start it and it will turn on for 2 secs and then turn off wtf is goin on. I am lead to believe it is the alarm but I am not sure

PLEASE HELP

Did the battery go dead on you??? Mine went dead(don't know for how long as it's not a dd) and I jump it it would run for 2 sec then quit.

thanks everyone for the help. I finally figured it out there was a short in one of the wire that goes into the alarm box. Hopefully it doesnt't do that again THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE REALLy APPRECIATE IT
