2006 Durango Disable Factory Alarm
Hello-
I have a 2006 Dodge Durango and my key remote stopped working (only have 1). I opened up the remote and noticed the battery terminal was also loose, so I re-soldered it and replaced the battery and nothing. So, every time I lock from the inside, the alarm arms, and when I open with just the key the alarm goes off until I start the truck. This is very annoying! I tried taking it in to the dealer to get the key replaced, but they are back-ordered for an unknown amount of time, and said they couldn't do anything to disable the factory alarm...
Is there a way to disable the factory alarm without messing with the locks? I've read some forums on tapping into the factory alarm wire, but nothing was clear. A second option that I thought about was just disabling the horn, but I'd rather leave that intact if I can help it.
Thanks!
