Hey all is here any way to get the truck to run on the Manuel keys alone like a I have a stand alone ignition key with will let the engine run for three seconds then shut it off red light flashes on dash and I have a Manuel door lock key but when used it sets alarm off all of these are fixed with the OEM sentry key inserted into ignition or hitting the unlock button on the OEM key. All advise is appreciated thank you

Factory Anti-Theft system. The fix is, don't use keys that aren't mated to the truck. If it doesn't have the chip/electronics the vehicle expects, well, you already know what happens.
Factory keys use SKIM (Security Key Immobilizer Module). If you use a key without it it will set off the alarm/kill the engine. There are ways to program new skim keys but that's another story.
