Re: Any way to add Sentry Key Engine Immobilizer Theft-Deterrent after the fact?
Don't know if anyone will read this but... I just bought a 98 Grand Cherokee
at an auction, it has a "safe-guard" alarm system installed, there was no
info with the truck and I can't seem to get the previous owner to talk, any
idea where I can get help with this system, I can't lock the doors as the
key won't unlock them. I have tried searching the name of the company on the
web but no luck, any ideas? TIA

Re: Any way to add Sentry Key Engine Immobilizer Theft-Deterrent after the fact?
The night I got my Jeep home I read over the owner's manual and found
out I had either been lied to, or the sales guy had been too lazy to
check himself. I could care less which one. If I had known the truth
I could have bought up to 8 blank keys and coded them myself. I'd
have done it in a heartbeat.
I'm not one to tempt fate: I want the key system, a car alarm with
both a beam under the driver dash and a trigger when it tilts (flatbed
theives) with every speaker on the rig set to blast like hell. If
they get away with it I'll be awake and calling Lojack or whichever
vehicle recovery system I put in it.
Besides, I'd have no problem holding them till the cops arrive. It's
amazing the powers of persuasion an armed civilian has on gutless
thieves. Especially when you're trying to steal their Jeep.
Thanks for everyone's help.

it can be done if the vehicle has all the wiring for it and it might
involve getting a new pcm and bcm and trans module if you have them plus
the skreem module
