    this wont turn your alarm on or off but it will switch from passive to active

    passive = arms the alarm anytime the doors are closed
    active = arms the alarm when you close the doors and then lock them

    ahh ok. I just thought the File Library was a place to upload/download stuff to refer to or to test things. I'll move it to the KB since we refer everyone to that forum anyway. Trying to get people to think of the KB if they need answers.

    I've tried this method about half a dozen times, but I can't seem to get it.

    The "Lock and unlock all doors 3 times by key or wireless transmitter" step is what worries me. I do not have the SKS package, so my fob will only unlock the drivers door unless I click it twice to unlock all doors. I've tried hitting the button on the drivers door for lock/unlock all, but that also doesn't work.

    Is there something I'm missing? Does the car "answer back" if the Alarm is disabled?

    I would like to switch my 2008 Pirus Alarm from Passive to Active mode because I like to Arm or Disarm the car control by the remote control button. I hope someone can send me some instruction. Thank you.
