Car Alarms: I want to disarm my 2003 Rav4 alarm, alarmtek, valet service

Question
I have a 2003 Rav4 with an after market alarm that goes off all the time, even when the key is in the ignition and the doors are open (if it sits for a few minutes with no opening or closing of the doors, the alarm engages, and then the next time I open or close a door, it goes off).  I want to remove it, the dealer said they wouldn't even look at it.  Any suggestions?

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 if you want to remove it, take it to a local
after market alarm dealer and have it done there.

They may even be able to reset/reprog. the features on
the alarm you have, to allow you to use the system
more comfortably, but of course, your call.

Have a nice afternoon.

elsewhere when it's time for a new car,
and thanks a pile!)
