Okay, i've been searching and cant find anything to answer my question. I know this is probably a repost as i can see it being a common problem. Just point me to one of the links, but i cant find it using the search...

Deal is this: Bought the car, a month later the dude i bought it from, he found the remotes for the alarm. I believe it's factory... With the keyless entry and all. i found the prox sensor, but i cant find the "CPU" of the alarm. I need to find it so that i can re-program the remotes. ANyone know where it is? And how to get to it? Pics would be great!!

i thought the factory alarms are only to open and close the door, the box thats under my seat has this little switch the goes from 1 to 10 to adjust the sensitvity. where should it go so it would be very sensitive.

That's gonna be different for each car and each of Toyotas diff alarm systems they installed. You have the one with the box under the seat - I can't vouch for that one. I turned mine up to the second to last setting, any higher and it would just randomly go off. You're gonna have to play with it. Turn it up a little at a time untill it gets too sensative then roll it back a notch or two.
Be aware that some Toyotas only came with keyless entry that acts and looks just like an alarm but won't actually go off. The way to tell is get in the car, lock the doors with the remote, wait 30sec [it's shorter but wait this long just in case] then unlock the door manually and open it - the alarm should go off. If in doubt you can call a dealership with the VIN# and they will tell you which system you had. Mine was the securikey one where the remote and key are one peice [ugly as hell tho] - that one was the sh*t. Then again I had permavin and some other antitheft options too - looks like somebody went all out. biggrin.gif
Hope this helps
