Car Alarms: Turning off theft alarm on 2002 Toyota Corolla, toyota corolla, dash area

Question
Hi ,
I have 2002 Toyota Corolla. It has keyless entry. Recently my car remote got damaged and I am waiting for a replacement. The problem is that every time I start my car with the key, the theft alarm goes off. How can I turn off the theft alarm so it does not go off when starting the car.

Answer
Ok, not familiar with your system but try this:

  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. This is over ride/reset.

You would repeat these steps to go back to
user mode but in your case, I'd leave it this
way until you can get your new remote.

Good luck.
