Car Alarms: override the security syst. on rav4, rav4 2001, toyota rav4

Question
2001 toyota rav4. a loose battery connection caused my alarm syst. to go off. How do I reset with the red button on the dash. Specifically, what steps do I need to take. thank you for your advice. rudy

Answer
Look under the dash area for a button or, a toggle
switch. When you locate it, turn on the ignition
key, press and hold in the button (little
spring loaded micro button, red or black possibly)
until the alarm chirps 1 time. This should over ride
the system, and only the keyless entry part,
if installed, would still be operating.
The LED (light emiting diode) light in the dash
should also go on solid.

At this point. the alarm would have reset.
If this had a starter kill relay installed,
it would now be opened, and the engine would
turn over when tried.

You would repeat these steps to go back to
user mode to see if this was corrected or,
remove it if you like at this point.

Let me know if it works for yours.
