    Hello TW, just got a 2010 Limited 4Runner and noticed that this blinking light was not stock with the 4runner. Did a bit of research but I'm still unable to find a definite answer as to what it is. Thanks for the help!

    The black and white wire from the upper left side of the picture is what runs out the back of it.

    Not that I know of. I have no remote start fob.

    There is a security light that also flashes, might not be part of the alarm system. Still not sure...

    Does it turn into a " Pro 4 Runner " if you press it?

    Ok, seriously though. If that is a white/blue wire, that is Battery Constant 12v+ Positive Wire

    The other one I can't quite see, but it obviously is mainly green, so here are some, but obviously no all, options:
    Starter Positive Wire (+): Green/Black
    Key Sense Negative Wire (-): Green/Black
    Parking Light Negative Wire (-): Green
    Parking Light Positive Wire (+): Green
    Power Door Unlock Negative Wire (-): Green/Black. This is in the drivers kick panel though, so likely not this.

    Dealer installed alarm, my 4Runner has the same thing. Dealer gets cheaper insurance when they have those installed.

    They put a deactivation chip in mine, I wasn't about to pay for their cheap ass alarm. I had the Viper with the remote start and pager installed on both my Tacoma and 4Runner
