Car Alarms: TOAD car alarm doesnt arm, valet mode, dash area

Question
Hey, i recently bought a car with a Cat 1 TOAD car alarm. It worked fine and then it went off when i was driving so i switched it off using the buttons on the remote. Now it won't arm any longer, how can this be fixed?

Answer
Not sure on Toad systems, but there is usually
an overide button or switch avail., under
the dash area, that you would use to program,
overide and, to perform service to the vehicle.

Yours seems to be in service mode.
Not sure how you guys on the otherside
of the big pond do valet/overide, but it
should be no problem really.

Ok, try this.
Put the key in the ignition, and turn forward
all the way just before cranking. Then within
5 seconds, press and hold in the valet/overide
button, found under the dash area,
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area goes off, and the siren chirps twice.
(Your valet switch might be the toggle (on/off) type.
in this case, key on, flip switch in oposite direction,
key off.)

This should reset the alarm.

Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to valet mode.

That should do it.

Let me know what you discover.

Cheers!
