Anyone know how to override the OEM alarm?

Broke my key fob, never got it replaced. Come out this morning and for some reason my battery is disconnected. Because I reconnected it, it sounds the whole alarm system. Due to no key fob I cant end the alarm

Tl;dr teach me how to steal my own car

 

Use your key to unlock the driver door, that will disable the alarm and allow you to start the truck

 

Doesn't work.

 

Little red light by the ECT switch just blinks forever. Also a clicking sound happens to

 

Strange. Worked on all my other Tacomas, including my current 2002

 

You sure it’s the factory rs3200 alarm?

 

Im not totally sure, sadly.

 

Is there a chance having a new key fob made would fix it?

 

If it’s the factory alarm, the glass break sensor will be below the ash tray/coin holder. If you’re unable to disable the alarm by unlocking the driver door, I doubt it’s a factory alarm especially of the flashing red indicator is located by the ETC area.

Might have to do away with the alarm wiring etc and return it back to factory form. This way, you eliminate the need or future issue.

My understanding is, the new remote needs to be program. If the alarm is activated, it won’t program. Plus, not knowing which system you have, getting a remote fob and the programming process varies.

 

If it's the Toyota add-on alarm system typically you can just find the main alarm module and unplug it to fully disable it but if it's an aftermarket system you will need to find the module and see what you have.

 

On older factory alarms (Lexus), you turn the key in the passenger door.

 

Where would the main alarm module be?

 

Take a picture of the red indicator

 

Typically under the dash somewhere near the steering column, they usually aren't too hard to find. Just follow the non-factory looking wiring, most of the alarm/remote start system installs I see are pretty sloppily done and easy to find.

 

Flashes red but isnt that bright, thats why it looks white

 

Ill try looking. Hopefully I can finish everything before it kills my battery

 

That’s not a factory alarm.

 

Something tells me that this isnt OEM

 

My friends 2002

 

Yea that's an aftermarket system, your gona have to locate the module to see what your dealing with.
