When attempting to unlock the drivers door the alarm goes off you can only unlock the passenger side manually unlocking it from the inside of the passenger door how can I fix this 94jeep grand cheroke?
were is the factory theft security system located in a 94 jeep
grand Cherokee limited
Actually ... if you lock the door manually then to unlock it and
not have the alarm go off you need to do 1 of 2 things, manually
unlock the hatch or passengers door, or use the keyless entry.
The security module is behind the dash just to the left of the
glove box. You have to pull off the right side dash, glove box,
etc. to get to it. there is two modules behind there, the security
module is the one on the left side. vjs
The drivers side switch mounted on the back of the lock
mechanism wears out after ten years because it is used the most.
This is why unlocking the vehical from the passenger side and the
hatch works to disable the alarm, they are not worn out yet. you
can replace the drivers side switch. vjs
You can pull the security module out, the alarm is disabled
then, but you also lose your automatic locks, you have to lock and
unlock manually. If you pull the module out, you have to do it with
the engine running. vjs
You can ground the violet wire going to the switch in either
door or hatch ground it to the body, this will disable the alarm as
well, but if you are going to the trouble, and want the alarm to
work, replace the switch. vjs
Sounds like you have another problem with your passenger door,
not sure i understand your description of your problem. there are a
set of relays in and under your glove box, that may affect your
problem with your passenger door, these are part of the automatic
door locks, these modules are the ones that stop working when you
pull the module out. vjs
You can pull the module, re-route the connector under the dash
then you can plug it in and out without taking the dash apart.

COMMENT>>> the above answer is spot on. Even the reason
why it happens is 100%.
I wish EVERYONE knew their stuff as well!
AS for your passenger door lock, is it the keylock itself that
doesnt work? If not it still should work to disable the security
system unless the system has worse problems than typical. If it is
just that the jey doesnt work in it it is easily removed from
inside the door panel and the local locksmith should be able to fix
it less expensively than a Jeep dealer can (have you tried Lock
Ease in it yet?)
