Default Can't enable factory alarm

I just got my car about a week ago and I'm guessing the alarm was disabled because the previous owner did not have a key fob. Its got the light on the dash for the security system, never seen it flash. I also checked the rpo codes and it has the theft deterrent system code. So far I've managed to reprogram a new fob and the locks, trunk etc. work with it. I can't get the alarm enabled though. Whenever I try to enter programming mode (acc to off, pull the radio fuse, etc.) to enable the programming mode I get 5 chimes and I can't change anything. Any ideas, blown fuse somewhere?

Just a thought; I was able to enter the programming mode to reprogram a key fob by using the process involving turning the key from off to acc 3 times. Would I be able to enable the security system in this mode or am I only able to reprogram the fobs in this mode?
