Car Alarms - Car alarm on 2004 camry doesn't turn on


Expert: ALARMTEK - 11/12/2009

Question
The car alarm on my 2004 camry doesn't turn on anymore when I lock the car. It also doesn't automatically turn on when I keep the car idle. I'm sure I did something to it because I had the key in the ignition and hit one of the buttons on my key fob. Is there any way to reset this so that my alarm works again. Thanks so much.

Answer
Should be no problem really.
It appears from your expaination, that the
after market car alarm is in service mode.

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, usually to the
left of the leg drilled into a hidden away spot,
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 happens.
