A thief broke into my car and got my factory code for the key-less entry. Where exactly on the car can I go to unplug it?

Thanks!

Are you talking about the pin pad on the door? You cannot unplug it without causing all the other locks to not work. I would recommend going to the dealership to have it changed and storing the new code in a safe place.

The dealership said I need a whole new body modulator for $500.00. Is there no other way to disable it?

Unfortunately no. All manufacturers take that type of security seriously. There is no other way around it.

Also can't get the key off I have 2 keys they both won't shut it off. If I set it on trip 1 is that what I use I forgot what key and trip setting I used. Would that effect me not being able to get the my key off because of the 3 trip monitor s if I set my key to trip 1? Do I still use trip 1to disable it with Sam key?

The keypad is part of the door trim. Removal requires taking the door apart. Removing the glass, then removing the trim panel. Then the window module needs to be re-initialized.
As the pad is flashing and cracked and you have an issue with the code as well you may just want to have the dealer do it all at once. The pad issue could also be why the key doesn't work properly. The trip monitor should have nothing to do with the key either.
