Car Alarms: 1996 Rav4 car alarm, toyota rav4, valet service

Question
I have a 1996 Toyota RAV4.  I tried to use my remote to disarm the alarm.  However, it won't turn off.  I changed the batteries.  It still won't turn off.   If I unlock the car using the key and open the door, the alarm would go off.  If I try to start the car, it won't and the alarm would go off.

How do I disarm the alarm?  Please help.  Thanks.

Answer
Sure, let's put it into valet/service mode.

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.

This solves the problem for now.

Then maybe a local after market alarm dealer
may even be able to reset/reprog. the features on
the alarm you have, to allow you to use the system
more comfortably again, but of course, your call.

Have a nice evening.
