Default Disable factory alarm on T&C?

Hey all.

I just picked up, last night, a 1999 T&C Limited. The previous owner can't
find the key fobs just now, although she knows she has them.

Is there a way to disable the factory alarm until I get those? It would be
tremendously annoying to have to run downstairs and out to the car in my
skivies to turn the alarm off with the key if I have a false trip for any
reason.
What are the chances of this, is the alarm only tripped if a door is opened
without a key and not just if a local kid pulls the door handle or hits it
with a soccer ball?

Any advice would be great!

No sweat no problem. Just drive it.
They do not trip very easy.

OK cool. That's what i was hoping. Although I did trip it when I opened the
rear hatche tonight, but the manual says that a key in any cyclinder should
disable it . Another problem for another time perhaps.

On a related note, am I going to have to go to the dealer to get Key fobs
programmed if the previous owner doesn't find hem? In my previous, 1993, T&C
there was a wire I shorted behind the glove compartment that allowed me to
program a new remote myself. Do you, or anyone else, know if a similar
programming method exists on the 99 if I got fobs on eBay or similar?

Yeah sorry I should have mentioned, I already did that. I mentions
programming Fob - to - FOB but nothing about FOB-Less. I was hoping, as
there often is, some backdoor trick to avoid the dealer and their $100 FOBS.

call and get the part number i have a dozen or so and one should fit the number
20 bucs fit your wallet??
a good scan tool can do it so you don't need a dealer to do so

In your case since you don't have a single key fob you will have to have the
dealer program them with the DRB scan tool. There is no wire to ground as
your earlier vehicle had.
