    Will the engine turn over when you try and crank, or is it completely dead..no lights come on or anything? Would like to try and help you if you are still having problems.

If factory alarm, lock drivers door with key, wait an hour should automatically reset, if it's a factory alarm and you have no keypad. Try removing the fuse for the alarm and wait a few minutes and replace fuse and see if it will reset the alarm.
If its an aftermarket alarm system, look under plastic panel below steering wheel for a plastic black box that is about the size of a deck of cards, izip tied or just hanging with a plugin with several different colored wires and unplug it. That will shutdown an aftermarket alarm and vehicle should crank

    Do you know if the alarm is from the factory? When you say don't have a button, do you mean that you don't have the small plastic keypad with the buttons to turn the alarm on and off?

1996 jimmy wont start, think maybe timing ( died driving down the interstate)is it a timing chain or belt? is it even worth trying to fix

The 1996 Jimmy has a timing chain. I can't tell you whether or not it is worth replacing or junking the vehicle over, that depends on if you are able to replace it yourself, if you can find somebody to do it for a good price, or if you have enough money and have been wanting a new car. If you haven't checked yet you may want to check the solenoid. They tend to get hot and cut the circuitry of the engine off. If it was me i would check and see if it would start cold and if it does try and replace the solenoid, and then if the problem happened again take it to a shop to have the timing checked.
