Subject: 99 jeep security key program problems

Question
ok this may get kinda long i have a 1999 jeep grand cherokee laredo v8. i just purchased it about 3 weeks ago from a small private dealer, and no clue to as its history, i wanted to install a older remote start system i took it to ziebart were he told me due to the secutiry chip inside the key he would need two keys to program the starter so i took my vehicle to the local jeep dealer, purchased a 50 key they attempted  to program like 8 times, the the tech. came to me and said he could not program the key, he would start the process and then midway though (it was like my car was sending some kind of short) and comletey resetting his computer programmer thing and he said he knows for a fact that his computer works correctly, as he had been using it earlier that day.  so this means for me no extra key no remote starter.   no good as it gets very cold here and i tend to loose keys any ideas to as what might be causing the problem and i have heard a little about the bypass mods. but  am afraid if i do it wrong that i could end up frying my computer and worse off than i started.   HELP

Answer
Probably not the one you needed in this vehicle.
There are keyless modules for this car
that will do this job correctly.

The piece you need here is the
IB-UCH2GX -
Chrysler Sentry Key Transponder RF Bypass
-All Years Override all generations of
Chrysler Sentry key transponder immobilizer
systems. This bypasskit is compatible with
both 1st and 2nd generation Chrysler,
Dodge & Jeep Sentry Key transponder immobilizer
systems. This transponder bypass includes a
MUX activation output which initiates the 2nd
Starter & 2nd accessory wire during start up.

This runs 69.95

copy cut n paste the following link
to to purchase:

-----------------

and then you can get some reg. aluminum keys
cut at the local hardware store and then you'll
have no more troubles. You need to talk to
the installer and have them do this for you
since they cost you money already, or go
to another technician to get this done right.  

Answer
These bypasses are designed for momentarilly
bypassing immobilizers in specific vehicles
when using remote starters.
Now,
If you ground the outout wire to the body of
the car once installed correctly, then result
is the Jeep system will not arm again until
ungrounded. It works that way.

This means the key you have there is going to be
put away until you sell the truck.
