It seems that the alarm will go off if a door that was locked is opened and the key hasn't been in the ignition or used to unlock the door for a while.
A door access system works like most security door systems. There is a key code that must be entered in order for the door to open and the alarm to not go off. If you enter the wrong code then the alarm will go off and you will have to deal with the alarm company contacting you.
no. stock alarm only triggers by opening the door. you could kick the crap out of the car, jump on the hood, and nothing will happen.
Because that is its job and that is what it will do.
Not if the door was locked.Not if the door was locked.
If the issue is simply having the alarm go off on the vehicle after locking it, then wanting it to stop making all that noise, it's fairly simple. The alarm is readied when you use the power lock to lock the car, then armed once you close the door. After that, if either door or the back hatch is opened, the alarm goes off. You can turn off the alarm by turning the door key in either door from the outside.
If the key will fit the lock then you can unlock it without worrying about the alarm. The alarm will be disarmed as soon as the door is unlocked if it's remotely with a button or turning a key in the lock.
This problem is actually caused by a bad lock actuator. You will need to replace the door lock actuator on the door lock that is causing the alarm to go off. I dont know why, but mine 93 Vigor does this as well. A tip: when u open the door and use the auto unlock, it turns the alarm off so you dont have to sit somewhere while u try to get the alarm to turn off.
Try putting the key in the drivers door and locking it manually after you close the door. If you have a custom alarm then you have to play with the alarm button.
i can tell how other factory systems have alarms, if you use the key or button inside the door or key fob to lock the doors, once you try to open the door(s) once it is locked the the alarm is activated via key or fob (remote lock)or lock button on the door the alarm will go off if you just try to open the door is when it is locked the alarm will go off it may vary on Toyota systems. It works this way on my girlfriends 07 subaru impreza but on my 97 sable(witch does not have an alarm does not go off ). hope this helps!!
When I activate my car alarm, then return to deactivate it the alarm deactivates the door unlocks but when I open the door the alarm goes off and does not go off when I use the remote. Ater about 3 to 4 minutes of trying it finally goes off and I can then start my car. Is the batter need replacing in the remote or a fuse needs change? Does the alarm need servicing?
In many cases you can either push the "Alarm" switch on your remote car door opener (If it has one) or use the door key to lock/unlock the drivers door. This will usually "reset" the alarm. TommyTrouble
