Security system enabled?

Some how the anti theft was triggered in my Durango. It will not start. I got my car from a used car lot so it did not come with a Key fob. They are refusing to help. I already tried to turn the key thing for five seconds manually unlock and lock the door and the back hatch. It would work once than trigger the anti theft again and wont work anymore. I tried to disable the wire for that part of my car, wont work! I also tried to get a new central timing module and that did not work either. I'm out of options I can afford. I have called around and all I've heard is you need to pay lots of money for us to diagnose it then more money if we can figure out whats wrong with it!

The problem with this 99 Dodge Durango I just got from a friend the battery got drained and the CTM behind the glove box was knocking at first I changed out the battery put in a starter still won't start. I only have a regular key I thought it might be the antitheft system because now the alarm keeps going off. So I was told by a reliable friend the antitheft has to be turned off with the key fob so I'm going to go down this locksmith place that does stuff for cars and they have key fobs and stuff and can program it. Then what you have to do I guess is put the key in the ignition don't start lock and unlock with the fog and then start the car should start up you have to do it within 30 seconds of using the key fob. I'm going to do this on Monday and I'll post back if it works but this person said they have the same problem and it worked.

I have the fix for 99 durango anti theft reset.I just had this happen to a friend of mine. If your vehichle will not disable the anti theft and security light is blinking.
First, if the alarm is sounding off you must pop the hood and unplug the horns so as not to drive you up a wall.
Second, take off your door panel, any door will work,
Third, after you take off the door panel, peel plastic back, unbolt the rear window guide. Its a bar that guides the window up and down. 10mm and a torx bolt. So you can slide the guide out of the way.
Fourth, you may want to remove door handle for better access. Your trying to get the door lock sensor off. The door lock sensor is what turns your alarm on and off via the door lock. The sensor/switch wears out an then the vehichle anti theft can not be disarmed.I got a replacement at the local salvage yard. I tested it first with a dvm. To arm is around.671 ohms and to disarm is around.481 ohms. That means when u lock the doors with the key, the sensor sends a ohms value to the bcm to arm. And vica versa to disarm. This worked like a charm. Durango started right up. Now we are going to program key fobs to prevent this from happening again.

Ok I figured it out last year sorry it took me so long to repost I did all the tricks and replaced a lot of parts that I needed anyway but nothing worked. I did the key fob thing used key in door nothing. I used a scanner my dad had we checked everything and boom there it was my stupid ignition wire loosened and got disconnected some how fixed the ignition wire and she started right up. Still don’t know how that happened. My heater stoped working at the same time I’m going to check to make sure the wire didn’t get disconnected from the switch before I get into anything crazy. I’ll start there. Good luck to you all.

Beastie lives!

My keyfob broke and I live 3 hours away from any dealership dodge or not and I want to disengage it so I can take it to the dealership to get several new keyfobs. I was told that there is supposedly a "valet mode" button that will reset the alarm system so I can drive away, I was told it is under the dash. I called the dealership and they said they never heard of the stock system having that. Thank you for your time

I lost my keys. I put new key switch and key start switch and start switch in now it starts and shuts off right away. I have no door key. Is there away to bypass anti theft alarm? On 1999 does it have chip key?

Where is the reset button located for the timer/alarm module. Security reset

Worked perfect for me :)

How do I disable or reset the security on a 1998 dodge durango?
