How to deactivate the alarm on a 2001 Toyota Tacoma

Model: Toyota Tacoma N150, N190, N140, N160, N170 - Years 1995-2004
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, we are shown how to disable the alarm of a 2001 Toyota Tacoma, but as the youtuber tells us, this system was used on most Toyotas of that period, so it is valid for several models. If we have difficulty starting our car and the horn continues to sound due to the activation of the Toyota factory alarm, we need to look on the left side of the dashboard: here we will find a small red button. All we have to do is insert the key in the ignition, turn on the ignition and press the red button, and the alarm will stop sounding and we can start the car.
