02 2.0 Unable to turn off alarm - mark1997
help my toyota rav4 2002 is stuck on the drive with the alarm set. The remote will not unlock it. Have tried changing the battery in the remote but still not working. I can get into the car by using the key but the allarm just keeps going off. Any ideas

Does the alarm stop if you put the key in the ignition? Most modern factory fit alarms generally have this feature should the remote fail.

Try the following, which is for a system malfunction or when adding or replacing a key.

Although it's for a Corolla, I've seen the same or similar info for the Rav4 but lost the link to it. If this doesn't work, then try looking around the toyotaownersclub forum and you might find the right info.
