Soooo, when is Landtank_JR going to be joining mud?

Jr is on mud and he's like a caged animal in my back yard right now. Driving in circles and wearing out the lawn. His first priority is to cover up the stripe, which I think is a mistake.

Dave, fobs are readily available at the dealer for not that much cash and programming them is real easy. They can even be found on ebay cheap.

turns out Kina has a fob so I'll wait and see how it works.

Lat night I read up on Key threads and will try getting a fresh cut key made and then lube up the locks with graphite.

At this point I'm just doing searches on a myriad of little things looking for the fixes and updates.

I found my instructions (which are actually a hand typed account that where included with my 93 cruiser from the po). My 93 fzj80 has the same valet/horn defeat switch as in the photo at the top of the thread.
"The alarm arms itself automatically after 20 seconds (even if you did not press the button on the fob)"
To deactivate this feature use the "valet mode".
turn off the motor.
turn the key to the acc. position and hold down the valet button until the red led comes on.
the alarm is now in manual mode and will only arm with the fob.
to return to "auto arm mode" turn the key to off then turn it to acc. and press the valet switch untill the led turns off.
to keep the horn from beeping every time you arm your alarm keep the rocker switch in horn defeat mode.
1 beep and flash of the lights means the alarm is armed.
2 beeps means the alarm has just been unarmed.
If you press the fob and the horn/lights flash 3 times

I have lived with the alarm going off every time I open the door on my 80 to retrieve something for more than 2 decades, boy has this been an annoyance to say the least.. Don't know why I randomly did a search here on MUD and lo and behold there is way to turn this off.. Thread revival incase some don't know...
