Default Door question.

I know Im new to the JK but had a TJ For a long time and never had this problem But today i took my doors off and could not get my jeep to start. I put the doors back on and it started right up. I this it has something to do with the dealership installed alarm system. Any ideas on a fix. Thanks

I don't know. I've had mine off dozens of times with no problems.

I'd be looking into the alarm they put on, see if it's programmed right, or if you have to do something to disable it when pulling the doors off...
I take my doors off all the time and never had any problems......

To me, it's kinda silly having an alarm on a vehicle that has no top or doors on it all summer!!!!! just me though....

It's not so much an alarm as it is an ignition bypass I think.

Must be some kind of after market alarm or something.

Yea, probably need to go by the dealership. Have you tried "unlocking" the jeep with your clicker after taking the doors off?
