Question
Does a 1996 4 runner have some kind of alarm or device that will not let me start it. my son recently was deployed to Japan and left me his truck to sell. I cant get it started.
It would be after market if it won't start.
)
An installer would place the velet switch in a semi
hidden area. I'd 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.=VALET/OVERIDE
This stops the alarm except for the keyless
entry if installed. Once in Valet mode,
it will allow the car to start and operate
like there was no alarm at all.
The next step is if wanting to remove it,
you contact a local technician to
locate it, and affect neccesary service
for you.
That should solve the troubles.
Let me know what you discover.
