Car Alarms: Toyota 4runner alarm, toyota 4runner, dash area

Question
My 97 Toyota 4runner won't start. It was running fine yesterday, then when I tried it again the LED light was blinking and the engine wouldn't start. I tried pushing the LED button and the alarm went off. I disarmed it by unlocking the car door from the outside. Now the button is flashing,but I've never noticed it flashing when the car is working and running. I've tried everything I possibly can but nothing seems to work. I is a factory alarm and I don't have the money to take it to a dealership, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Answer
No factory alarm in this car.
So 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.
This is car should start fine now.

I hope it works out for you.
