Immobilizer location? Problems?

Being it is a 2019 and under warranty I would let the dealer deal with it as there are no parts available outside a dealership at this time. That said there is no separate immobilizer module in that vehicle, it is integrated into the transponder ECU as part of the transponder key system. The add-on pieces for it would be if it has the key-less entry and start or the contents alarm. I attached what little they show for the system but it is only the transponder assembly as the immobilizer gets the signal through it. If the light is on all the time and not flashing it is a fault in the system and not key related.

I posted a question about this vehicle reguarding its a push button star an when i push to start nothing happens the dash lights go out an back on like a power ssupply problem but car trouble code b2799 came up so any way to solve this problem by just key the responds i got from this question was are u sufe immobilizer is the problem what else could it b need help prompto thanks

it needs to be looked at because the problem is either the transponder is bad, this guide can help reset the system

just brought this vehicle runs great ,but just today went to start ,by the way its a push button start,push button to start the car does nothing no sound or nothing how do I reprogram the immobilizer to make start again

You would need a scan tool for reprogramming the immobilizer. How sure are you that this is the one cusing the problem?

My car has an alarm system. I've been having problems with it. Can it be disconnected. If so can I do it or do I have to take it in to the dealership.

What is the problem you are encountering? Ignoring or bypassing a problem is not the correct way to be going about. It might result in other complications if something is disconnected, eg, the power door locks.

So here we go. i hope someone can help me with this i have spent hours out the back checking things. so i have two of the same vehicle listed above d4d 2l diesels they were both running fine. i then stored them out the back yard for a few years i have come to start them after swapping the batteries and they both wont fire up. they have fuel but don't seem to have ignition they crank over but wont fire up. the key will unlock the car but when i try to lock it the immobilizer just beeps and doors don't lock. so i can only assume i have an immobilizer problem its as if because the car batteries died the car has forgotten the key code. the car keys were fine i didn't have to change the battery in them. it is very odd as the two cars have the same problem. i only want to get them back up to scratch so i can make a few quid rather than them just sit in a scrap yard there to good for that? Please help

Hello,

When leaving the car and arming the alarm system, after about two minutes the alarm will start going off. Even if I lock the car manually, after about two minutes the alarm will go off. Please advise.

Factory or aftermarket alarm? Check all battery connections. Does the car indicate on the dash that any doors are open or anything out of the ordinary?

Factory alarm. Nothing on dash to indicate anything out of order. If it is the battery on my key fob can I go to an auto parts store to get them?

Yes, but be sure to check battery connections first

My alarm keeps going off. I have to tighten the positive battery terminal but when I do the alarm goes off so I have to get in the car push the valet switch. When it is off then push when I have the key turned now the valet switch broke from pushing it so much. How can I just disable my alarm?

It sounds like you have a micro switch in the drivers door lock that has gone bad, because that is what happened to my car. I got a new latch and installed it the problem went away. Cost me $67.00 for the part. FYI
Here are wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works. (Below)

I look up a couple of sites on how to bypass a 1997 Toyota rave 4 immobilizer an I followed the one where it said to cut the two wires coming from key cylinder join them cut power to immobilizer box an it should work but all am getting is spark for about 4 seconds car starts and cut right off so my guess is immobilizer is still cutting in, I need help on which wires to attend to in order to fully bypass this immobilizer,which wires are the ones that shut immobilizer completely off,it has a Toyota vvs immobilizer system with 3 separate immobilizer boxes,i eliminate power to all the boxes but immobilizer still kickin in I think,i need your help had car for a while an it runs great besides that

I'm sorry, but due to the nature of this question, we can't answer it. Please understand that it isn't in our best interest to teach people how to bypass a security system.

I am sorry, but we only deal with direct repairs and no bypassing the security system. I hope you understand.

i had this car for about 8 year a couple of problems now an then,run great now one day went to work then try to go to lunch but car wont start check an no spark or gas got a diagnostic check came up with code 99 engine immobilizer malfunction so because i live in barbados its really no place here that reprogram keys so i tried to go online and find sites on how to get rid immobilizer on toyota rav 4 seem a few so i tried the one where you have to cut an join the two wires coming from key cylinder then cut power to immobilizer an now im getting spark an pulse from injectors but no fuel an dont hear fuel pump check fuses there good cant find the fuel pump relays any idea where does are an why im not getting any fuel an could u gave me any more info on howb to bypass this immobilizer?

If you are getting sparks now, most probably you have already bypassed the system. What you need to check is the fuel pump circuit.

Fuel pump gets its power from the circuit opening relay located in left kick panel.

I have a 97 Toyota Rav 4 with an after factory alarm that has engaged suddenly after being inoperable for the time that i have owned the car (bought used w/o any alarm remote device). What I would like to know if there is a way to diable the alarm system so that i can START the car and drive it home? Thank you so much for your time and assistance.

if its the alarm that not
Allowing you to start the truck
Look for an off on switch usually they put it around the driver side area under the dash also look for a push in switch usually black in color
After locating the switch turn key on toggle the switch on and off and try to start if didn’t try to put the switch on and try again
If it’s the push in switch again turn key on push switch and let go then try to start
Good luck
