Car Alarms: Alarm problem?, toyota camry, dash area

Question
QUESTION: Hi Alarmtek   1993 Toyota camry 2.5 v6 fitted with I am told an after market alarm/imobiliser, my problem is this car and alarm were working fine, parked did not lock car and 15 minuets later  car was dead, apart from hazards & interior lights.Have checked battery full charge, all confections are clean and tight. Could make some sense of this please, I would be very gratefully thanking you  Andy

ANSWER: It sounds like you may need to reset the system.
Ok, try this.
Put the key in the ignition, and turn forward
all the way just before cranking. Then within
5 seconds, locate, press and hold in the
valet/overide button, found under the
dash area, (push button, spring loaded)
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area goes on solid,
and the siren chirps once.

(Your valet switch might be the toggle
(on/off) type. in this case, key on,
flip switch in opposite direction,
then turn the key off.)

This should reset the alarm, and reset
the grounded relay on the starter wire,
allowing you to start the engine.

At this point, the only thing working would
be the keyless entry from the alarm,
if it came equipped that way.

Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to usable armed mode.
You may get 2 chirps, confirming it,
and the lights may flash twice as well.

That should do it.
If you want to remove it at this point,
take it to your neighborhood installer
for this, or buy the wiring chart
(Go to: www.vehiclewires.com)
for the vehicle, and reverse engineer it wire
by wire, until safely removed.

If it does not work out this way,
you will have to replace the system
with one you know how to operate
and what to expect. Don't want to
get stuck in another bad situation.

Let me know what happens.

QUESTION: Hi Robert thanks for prompt reply, unfortunately this did not cure my problem, located red led/switch on dash & followed instructions red light does not go solid or alarm chirp,any more ideas? Andy.

Answer
No, unfortunately, if that did not work,
you'll have to remove the alarm itself
to regain control of the starter.

Keep trying to get it to go into overide,
or go to www.mywires.com and get the
wiring chart for the Camry, and reverse
engineer the system so that you can get
it started again.

Good luck.

Robert
