Additional info to find box:
open the hood, look for the car alarm horn/ siren. I cut mine out, but you don't have to (but it makes life so much easier without that noise, and you can keep your battery connected while working),
just look for the wire that is connected to the car alarm horn, there should only be one red wire. (horn should be located face down near the top right).
If you cut the wire from the siren, you can try tugging the wire to find where it leads.
Now follow that wire all the way down (It should lead into the drivers side, above the gas pedal. around that area).
Once you have located the siren's wire, it will lead you to the alarm box, because it is one of the wires connected to the alarm box.
Make sure you have a screwdriver and have undone the basic plastic panel below your steering wheel, note you don't have to unscrew the metal plate below the wheel, just the plastic frame, so you can get a better look BEHIND it.
Stick your head near the gas pedal with a flashlight and find that car siren/ alarm wire (might be red), if you are lucky you might see sunlight through the hole of where the wire enters.
Also if the alarm box is way up in there and you need to cut a few zip ties BE CAREFUL not to cut the surrounding wires!!! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Incredible video I've been trying to figure this out for a week and after I found the right video two minutes later I had it running. Thank you very very much. It works for a 98 RAV4 too.
Yes, a similar principle is used for other cars as well. Glad it helped.
i know I am kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good site to stream new tv shows online?
Bro you saved my day, if I hadn't seen this I would have been stuck at Walmart all day.
Dodged a bullet right there bud
hello O got a 98 Toyota Camry LE for my daughters first car I got it for 200 and I put a new battery in it after that it would not start up. I did what you told me to and it started up thank you for taking the time to put this up
I just removed the fuse 18 to the alarm system and disconnected the battery so the computer shut down, then hooked up the battery turned the key on and off 2 times. The third time I hit the starter. It worked and I left the fuse out for good. Now the ecm doesn't look for the alarm. Thanks for getting me to look in the owners Manuel for the control power for the black box. Most of the Toyotas are a little bit different and my manual told me the right information for my car.
Thanks dude. I was able to fix my 1999 Camry CE car alarm issue. I tried removing fuse and relay, but didn't help. Finally removed the connector from alarm box as described in the video.
Thanks man. I got my car to work after like an hour of searching for videos and trying different methods. I hate viper alarms. Its been a pain in the ass ever since i got this car. Thanks again really appreciate it
Knowing that I have helped you, helps me get through the day; thank you.
Omggggg, I just tried this and it WORKED! The little plastic bars with the cables and all looked slightly different in my car, but still similar enough for me to recognize it. Thank you so much!
This was exactly what I needed! Had the same problem but I'm back running again. Thanks for the video man
+Tyler Morgan awesome, glad it worked.
Thank you!!! You are a good amongst men, finally my freaking car won't randomly go off it's so embarrassing
Happy to help
Just tried this...awesome! Worked great! Thanks for the post!
Wow, it worked like a charm. Thanks man.
No problem man!
I LOVE YOU FOR LIFE FOR SAVING MINE ! You are so smart and helpful to learn and share this with us. Me as a 24 year old female who knows nothing about cars and all alone almost felt like my life was over. I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH I SUBSCRIBED WITHOUT A
DOUBT
Check the Fuse. I believe it is a 7.5 amp fuse mini. Open the hood and check the fuse for the Dome Light. That was the issue with mine. I hope that helps.
Thanks great video !!!
Brilliant video !
that worked for me...thanks!!!
No problem, my man
Great post. Thank You much!
My car is CURRENTLY sitting at my job site due to the same security system issue. Going to try tomorrow and please wish me luck.
Thanks you saved me.
Omg thank you!
Thank you so much!
Thank you!!!!
Those two wires are hooked up like that from factory?? I'm looking at one of these cars but the fob is lost and I need to drive it home if I buy. Thanks
Ok, iv taken the fuse out for the horn, now I’ll try this to stop the alarm!
The battery went flat and I can’t work out how to stop the horns!
I've got a 1997 Avalon and, sadly, there is NOTHING under the dash like that box. Also, the 97 Avalon alarm uses the car's horn instead of a dedicated alarm horn.
I had the same problem earlier today. I had to turn the toggle switch behind the valet bypass device until the blinking red light turned to a solid red light. Then I was able to turn the ignition/starter on. And drive the vehicle. Toyota car alarms are such a pain in the ass. The alarm malfunctions. And shuts down the ignition/ starter
Where is this switch?
Hi I'm eva I got a 1996 Toyota and my key fogger just broke can't be fixed and I can't start my car with out it is there any way I can start my it with out the fogger
Excuse my English, I saw your video, my toyota lost the original key that tare the alarm control, now I want to disconnect the alarm, just disconnect the piece that is under the steering wheel
my fiance has a 1996 corrola.. the alarm was triggered and wouldn't start period because of the "starter killer" I found the box to reset the remote under the drivers seat. There is a very small green button on the side I put the key in the on postion pressed the button for three seconds and the clicker top button once and the car started right up for me...down fall is I had the unplug the horn fuse because it still wouldn't go off. I wasn't able to locate the black box as mentioned in your video but this my help someone with a similar issue
Wow! yes. There seems to be a similar principle in your case too! I am glad this video helped you.
what do you mean by clicker top button?
the key phobe
I’m working on my 4Cyl 99 Camry Le and I’m looking under the steering wheel I can’t find that black box. I’m having issues starting my vehicle because I replaced the starter and disconnected the battery, learned it caused it to be immobilized and we’ll yeah I’m here now. Any info would be appreciated !
Your car siren under the hood should have a wire which can lead you to your cars alarm system
have a 1997 Camry Toyota.does anyone know which box it is. there are two boxes that look simular both black .and both next the each other. thanks
The box should have writing on the back thatexplains its alarm functions
i cant find it
READ DESCRIPTION FOR MORE INFO
By the way, you do not have to worry about the switches in the box (disregard that info), Just make sure both wires are plugged in, and the white connector unplugged.
thank you!!
does the automatic lock out function prevent you from jumping the vehicle? when the battery is dead doesn't
the security system disable the start function?
+Keith Turner the security system disables the connection to the starter, so you turn the key and nothing happens...
if you are attempting to jump start, then you would have to disconnect the battery, so yes I imagine you would have this same problem (if you do not have the key with the chip).
is there a work around using the valet button? you have to have the hood and all doors closed ,then turn the key,push the button etc how do y 9u close the hood with the cables going keeping the hood open a little?
I'm not sure about the valet button, I think that might work actually, since it has the chip.
I am not sure what you mean by the cables.
will this turn off the red security light
Yessir, be sure to lock the doors lol
does your remote still work to unlock the car? or can u only use the key for central locking?
I never had a remote for my car. On the black alarm box, you can look on the back side to read all of the functions the alarm box does and figure out if there are any remote functions.
I think you should be ok, though. And it is not as if what I recommend isn't reversible. You can always plug it back in and check. :)
thanks for the reply
I think I messed up the alarm system from pulling out wire..now the door won't lock thru remote or from inside car..Any suggestions
Well, you should not have pulled out any "wires", you should have disconnected the white plastic plug in cables from the black box (looks like a lego piece at 1:25 ).... The point is that you aren't pulling out a wire that can't be plugged back in. So what wire are your referring to? a specific wire? or the white connector?
I found the box and was able to bypass everything up until I start the car, it shuts down immediately, no power. Any suggestions pls?
If your car engine starts but THEN dies then it is not the starter nor the alarm system but likely either the spark plugs or an old battery. Maybe the air filter. Sorry brother may need another video.
Anti theft light is flashing on and my camry '99 is not running. What should I do in this case?
tasria rahman if your car remains silent when you turn the key, then it might be the starter, like the video explains.
My 98 camry v6 has a weak alarm after i disconnected the battery to wash the engine, its like another alarm that sounds low idk what could be going on...
nacha laica it might be the horn itself, not your battery-since I assume the car is running alright. Check the horn, and replace it if you want it. I might be totally wrong; i’m no mechanic.
@@LordLoss thanks for the fast reply, the alarm got normal after a couple if hours, and yea the car was running all the time.
I cant find the box my friend where is it please.
Mine randomly goes off sometimes when I unlock it with the key IM SO CONFUSED LOL. 1999 camry xle 180k. Can I just cut the wires for the horn without disconnecting everything else?
You are probably using a key without the chip in it, so unlocking the car without the chip and only the key will set the alarm off. But yeah, you can totally just cut the wires to the horn, as long as you are still able to start the car while the alarm is going off. I am no mechanic, but I cut my horn those years ago, and it was a separate entity from the alarm system.
Is this the dealer installed "TDS" alarm system? I recently inherited a 97 Camry with around 39k original miles and it has the TDS alarm installed. The key fobs were either lost or destroyed in a kitchen fire as were the original keys. I don't want to have to deal with this stupid alarm system once I try to work on the car and get it back on the road.
Follow the siren wire that I cut out in the video, it leads you to the alarm box beneath the driver's foot area. If the box has those two thick cables, it is likely a starter kill alarm box. Just unplug the white connectors and you should be good.
Thank you! I will try that.
Can some one help me out I can’t find the box been looking for a hour
Your siren under the hood of you car should have a wire that can lead you to your cars alarm system.
you said you "turned off 2 switches"... did you OPEN that black box to do that??
I did, but I do not think you actually need to. Try it first without opening the back.
Thanks! Mine was plastic-tied very tight high under behind dash. I found that push button, although in our 2006 Highlander it was the "Tire Pressure Reset" switch for low tire dash sensor/light. ...but Alarm/Starter kill problem got fixed when I changed car Battery and Terminal. Found out that weak battery, damaged battery post, or loose fitting terminal can also cause Car Alarm to get Wacked out. Thanks!
I have a 98' camry, got a new battery connected it. And it immediately started loud alarm. I looked for that box and cannot find it. Please help
+Premier Tre , open the hood, look for the car alarm horn. I cut mine out, but you don't have to (but it makes life so much easier without that noise, and you can keep your battery connected while working),

+Bastian B Also if the alarm box is way up in there and you need to cut a few zip ties BE CAREFUL not to cut the surrounding wires!!!
I have a 1994 Lexus es300 will not start wood it be the same problem
I do not think so, since this covers at least 1998, so your alarm technology is most likely too old to compare... Sorry
Sean Evans check your keys.. the immobilizer in the key may not be working properly
will this work on a 1998 toyota sienna?
Yes, it happened to me earlier today with my 1998 Toyota Sienna. I had to use the valet bypass switch to turn my ignition on and deactivate the alarm. I lost my fob key a while back
There's nothing on CZcams for 2002 Camry :'( fml! My Viper alarm won't let me drive & the CLICKER is either glitching or broken all together. This sucks I'm stuck.
Any 2002-2006 toyota Camry video should help you, since their models are roughly the same throughout those years. So try searching for a 2003-2006 camry video.
lmao he cut the horn out. thats hilarious !
MAY work for Toyota Camry model 1997-2001
im having problems with my gmc envoy lost my starter keys i have a replacement key but no alarm gow to i bypass so i can start my car helllpppppp theres no video for it
I am unsure of what you mean exactly. Try to be more specific. What year/ specific model is the GMC Envoy. I don't really understand your last sentence at all, but please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic, just a young man who happened to figure out a few things about my SPECIFIC car.
can u help me find it?
Can't find the alarm box? Look at the video description for detailed steps.
The way I found it was by following my "siren" wire. The siren is the horn which makes all the alarm noise, which is located beneath the car hood, upper right side, pointing down.
Follow that wire connected to your siren, it will go from your siren in your hood into your car, near your foot pedal area. Then go inside your car and try and locate that same wire, then follow it all the way up to the alarm box(going towards your steering wheel above the pedal). It might be tied up with some zip-ties, so careful cutting it, you do not want to cut important wires.
is this the same for a Toyota solara 2001 as well?
I am not sure, some toyota models have the similar features, and are included in the same "manual" handbooks you can get at any autozone. For example the manual I have reads somthing like "Hanes, Toyota Camry 1998-2001". Try googling if it is similar...
i have a 98 camry and i was jumping it today and the alarm started to go off and it has locked the engine so what should i do?
If you have the black/rubber key with the chip in it, then you are good to go. If not you can unplug the wires to your alarm box like in the video. If you are bothered by the alarm, you can cut the wire leading to the siren, again, like I show in beginning of the video.
would work better if the author was wearing jeans
What a completely worthless antitheft system .lol
For that reason I have considered taking this video down, as statistically these cars get stolen like wildfire.
mine resets ARMED itself for no apparent reason twice a year. & then the usual disarm procedure dosent work till Ive tried it 5 times and then phoned a friend. then it will work. I think its haunted. not seriously.
cool video man saved my ass thanks
