Key fob stopped working replaced the battery still not working. Any ideas, when I use the key to unlock it my alarm goes off until I start it. Which is a problem being that I leave for work at 5am.

 

probably not your fob then and is probably the actual alarm module

aftermarket?

edit: if so, it may need to be reporgrammed.

 

No it's the factory Toyota fob.

 

owners manual have anything on re setting it ?

 

I don't have a manual.

 

I dont either!
[soapbox]
I don't see why an owners manual should ever not be in a used car when you buy it. It fits perfect in the glove box, it is most useful there, so that you can access it whenever you may need. And it should be considered useful for the entire time you own the car, so there is no reason to sell it or give it away.
But nevertheless, I always end up buying the used car that has no manual, and when I go to buy one, nobody want to sell one like the the previous owner did to the one that should have been mine.

It may have flown out when I flopped it. : /
Jace any input on this?

 

Hopefully thats not what happened to mine. I would hate to think that someone rolled my girl before I do!

 

What system?

My karr remotes died I had to go to karr and get new replacements, they also programed them to my truck

 

I mean shit went everywhere. My iPhone even popped out of my otter box.

What ever the stock fobs are that's what I have.

 

I vote you store them

 

My stock is karr , toyota uses them alot. There off i25 and arapaho I think

Before I bought new ones I replaced the arm/disarm button in the key fob it worked for about 6 months

I got these

 

Yeah but I'm cheap as fuck! I'm trying to build another house. So I'm not trying to spend any money. Gotta get the wife on board. She is running my ass broke!!

 

Alright devin, south Philly cheesesteak down off Lincoln and I 25 is the best closest cheesesteak to pats or genos back east. I've tried the south Philly cheesesteak from the DU location and it sucked compared to this one, was totally different. The owners of the Lincoln location are from Philly.

 

heres what I did cuz I'm no rich person

Un sodered the trunk opt button
unsodered the arm/disarm button
Sodered in place of the arm/disarm button the opt/trunk (my truck has no trunk)
and had a functioning key fob again. Before doing that I checked the button and it was bad.

 

Devin - Have you made a new post on TW for your problem? There should be someone out there that has a solution.

I would say try reprogramming it. I got a new key fob when I bought mine because it didn't come with the truck and got the privilege of programming it myself.

 

I was never a fan of the South Philly at DU. I think its more popular as a bar than a cheesesteak place now

 

Apparently they are franchised and owned by different people, I don't think the DU location has a clue about cheesesteaks. The one time we went in they didn't know what wiz was!!!!

 

I'm in gotta try it now.

Hi my name is Devin I don't do shit like this!

I have no manual. I did not make another post. I'm sure Jace knows how. Ill shot him a text tomorrow.

 

you don't need a manual, that's what the internet is for
