I am having a problem How can I turn off the alarm? The vehicle is unlocked and drivable, yet the alarm keeps going. It will stop after about 2-3 minutes, but when you get out of the car, it starts up again. I only have one key FOB and no remote, and have tried everything on it (lock, unlock, the aux, and every combination thereof) as well as trying locking and unlocking from the inside. Also, how can I avoid this in the future? Please advise on any new soloutions other than take to dealership.

is this not clear ,quoted
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to protect your
vehicle; however, you can create conditions where the
Vehicle Security Alarm will arm unexpectedly. If you
remain in the vehicle and lock the doors with the RKE
transmitter, once the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed
(after 16 seconds), when you pull the door handle to exit,
the alarm will sound. If this occurs, press the UNLOCK
button on the RKE transmitter to disarm the Vehicle
Security Alarm. You may also accidentally sound the
Vehicle Security Alarm by unlocking the driver's door
with the key and then opening the door
good luck deciphering this page, wow.!
page 23 is NO ENTER AND GO', OPTION.
Either press the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter,
pull on the front driver or passenger door handle (refer to
"Keyless Enter-N-Go" in "Things To Know Before Starting
Your Vehicle" for further information) with a valid
key fob in range, or press the Keyless Enter-N-Go Start/
Stop button (requires at least one valid Key Fob in the
vehicle), or insert a valid Key Fob into the ignition switch
(if the Start/Stop button is removed) and rotate it to the
ON/RUN position.

if all this fails get jeep to fix it. (the magic is broken so...)
or ask them to explain, page 23 , in non GREEK..
Well when you replaced the battery did anything else on the key fob work? Often times you have to reprogram the remote in order for it to function properly. Try getting inside the vehicle and manually lock all doors with the driver's side switch. Put the master key in the ignition switch and turn the switch to the run position but do not start it. Now push and hold the lock and unlock buttons at the same time until the locks make noise....may take 10 to 30 seconds. After you have the key fob programmed, see if the alarm will turn off with the remote. Did it work? The only way to totally turn off the alarm is with a GM Tech @ or 3 scan tool and go into body control bidirectional controlling procedures or with a very good aftermarket scanner with good bi-directional functionality.
The alarm works via the body control module on this vehicle and i am thinking it uses the PK2 system and if you do not have a properly coded key or the BCM is loosing memory, then check for any and every blown fuse and replace as needed.to start with.. If the vehicle stays running after starting then the bcm/key is reading correctly.
You must have a spare key. When your alarm is going off have your key in the ignition, wait it out. When your alarm stops in approximately 30 seconds keep the key in the ignition exit the vehicle and lock the doors (don't forget your spare key). Go to the passenger door with the spare key and unlock the doors and turn the key that you left in the ignition and it should start right up. Just worked for me.
Try this first before buying a new battery or replacing with a new aftermarker alarm. (1) Make sure all doors are closed completely and locked (2) On the drivers door, use your key to turn LOCK then UNLOCK, Open the door and close then repeat again (3) Proceed to Sliding door and turn UNLOCK - you should hear all doors unlock and you've completed the factory reset. Open driver door and turn ignition, your vehicle should now start.
That is your factory alarm. I will assume that this Prestige unit is a remote starter with keyless entry...and you are using the Prestige unit to unlock the doors. Apparently, the unlock wire is connected but, the factory disarm is not. You can turn off your factory alarm by unlocking the vehicle with the key.
Not a complete solution but something to try .Using the key lock and unlock the vehicle from the drivers door .Some models in UK have an arm switch on the lock barrel in the door which sticks.
