Default key fop / alarm

Hi All,
I don't know if I have a key fop or a alarm system issue on my '96 GC 4x4 5.2 limited.

the lock part works great - but the unlock doesn't and if I unlock with the key the alarm goes off and disables the jeep.

1) is it possible to program a new key fop? what's the process?
2) is it possible to just disable the alarm? I really don't need it, nothing there to steal
3) is there any way with the key to disable the alarm?


thanks in advance for the help

1. Yes. Take it to the dealer. Get a spare in case the other fails.
2. Not sure. Is it factory or aftermarket?
3. Not sure.
