    I have a manual too, almost positive we have chip keys.

    No. I don’t have shock sensor. The dealer said he would have a third party installer install it. I talked to the install. He told me he would have to splice into wires under the dash. I declined it. The dealer told me there is no factory plug and play shock sensor alarm although he might not have been truthful with me.

    The dash security blinks when factory alarm is set.

    Right, I think he was talking about the blinking red light towards the right of the dash.

    Vehicle:
    2017 Tacoma OR 4x4 (formerly 2002 OR 4x4, 1995 4x4 4Runner, 1985 4x4 Toy PU) ... and RIP’s (rust in pieces) to a Bronco II 4x4 & S10 Blazer 4x4
    Oh, maybe mine was added but the dealer never charged me for it and all the places I’ve seen where they’d tie one in are untouched.

    That’s the one I’m speaking of. It blinks when factory alarm is set.

    Maybe they changed something then after 2017. On pqge 69 of the owners manual for my truck, it says that flashing light is the engine immobilize system and works with the chipped key.

    Thats an immobilizer, not an alarm.

    Mine came with the dealer installed alarm that is activated by impact. They did a hack job. When I pulled out the panel to install the Caliraised LED switch I discovered a tangled up ball of splices/taps.

    That’s why I declined the dealer installed option.
