Alarm system.

Asked by GuruY9W34 Feb 18, 2018 at 11:49 AM about the 2003 Dodge RAM 1500

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My alarm system has never worked as long as I
owned the Truck. The previous Owner has lost the
Factory keys. Out of the blue the alarm started
going off and now I can’t start my truck. I don’t
have the Factory key, how can I start my truck with
out spending $100’s for a new key.

how old is the truck? does the key fob have a battery or is it a regular key? if its a late 90s to late 2000s and has a regular key then the original key is somewhere in the truck. possibly taped under the dash...witha dead battery.

a friend who has a few company cars would make multiple cheap regular keys for drivers and tape the factory key under the dash to activate the ignition system. saved him big time.
