I really hate the factory alarm systems in these, I recommend pulling them...
A faulty throw on it can lead to the cpu disabling the starter, which is a serious PITA to figure out.
if you do pull out the module (located behind the glove box opening on the firewall)
1) make sure you do it while the engine is running.
2) continue to let the engine run for about 15 min
3) on first shut down and start you may need to feather the gas and help it hold idle for a few min while the computer teaches itself how to run properly again
