HAAAAAAAAAALP!!! i disconnected my battery and since the po didnt have a key fob I cant turn it off! :mado: i tried the key in the door and unlock it but it doesnt do anything and the alarm keeps on a keeping on...

I found the black box under the dash but unhooking it keeps the truck from starting even though the alarm is off... Can I short some of the wires in the alarm harness to allow my to get to work in the morning? :confused:

sometimes, this will work...

With the battery disconnected, turn the key to "on" position. Connect battery and try to start... ;)

I got a supplement with my original manual about disabling the alarm, something with turning the key and shifting... or some such, I will try to dig it out.
