Alarm issue
 

98 3.9L Alarm won't go off. The FOB does not work so I've been using the key. Today I had to disconnect the battery, couldn't shut the alarm off. Any way to disable this thing? Thanks!

To my knowledge (this is a shot in the dark) you could just replace the CTM with one without the alarm. As long as you dont have heated seats or anything fancy. 98 is a hit or miss whether they need programmed or not.

Try unlocking the driver door twice. If that doesn't work, try the passenger door.
