The ironic thing about my old 96 Toyota Camry is that the vehicle has performed fine except for the car alarm. This thing has given me so much grief, and I wish there was a simple way to just deactivate the thing.
My main problem has been that the alarm will just go off at random, and my remote key only deactivates the alarm if I depress the button really hard.
Well today, the remote key button got stuck somehow and it armed my car when I was inside. I tried to start the car, and it refused to start. Thank God, the remote managed to work after several tries. However, I am now out of town, and I won't have access to a Toyota dealership until Saturday. I am scared of this damn remote button getting stuck again and setting off the alarm. However, if I leave the remote at home, I will be screwed as well if the alarm goes off.
Is there anything an owner can do to turn off the alarm without the remote?
