Car Alarms: Toyota Camry car alarm, toyota camry, dash area

Question
I have a 1999 Toyota camry that was locked with a remote when it was parked for a 3 week period. While parked the battery died, so I had to unlock the door with the key to get back inside. The battery in the car was completely dead, so we replaced it, however as soon as the new battery was connected the alarm began to go off. I tried to start the car but nothing happens. I am pretty sure the alarm is factory installed since the lights flash and the horn beeps. I have tried to turn off the alarm with the remote but nothing happens, even though the light on the remote illuminates to show that it is working. How can I disabled the alarm so the car will start?

Answer
You'll need to set off the alarm for a few seconds.
Then, 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.

But if it does work, I'd keep it this way, and
replace the alarm asap with one you know and
understand how it operates for the best overall
experience.

Let me know if it works for yours.
