Alarm module is under the kick panel on drivers side. Disconnect the two wires, let sit for 20 mins and put them back on. Place them back in the same place from where you took them from!!!!! They have to go back in the same place but the trick is the order you hook them back up. It has to be in a certain order. Don't remember which one first, sorry. If alarm still sounds on its own, disconnect them and hook them back up in reverse order that you did the first time. Should fix the problem. Do at own risk, fixed my truck but i am sure it voids any warranty you might have. Unsure if there are any ramifications about crossing the two wires accidentally when you go to hook them back up. So be careful and do at own risk.
