really do not drive this 2007 GX 470 very much, I went to start it and the battery was dead, I hooked up a remote jumper and instantly the horn went off, problem my key FOB does not work, so I could not turn it off, only way was to remove the jumprer. So I got my jumping cables and yeap the same thing, how do I turn off the horn?
Maybe somebody set off the alarm and killed the battery or something, I really do not know. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Today I put the remote jumper on it and the horn went off again, I also put a new battery in the key FOB, that did not work, it would not unlock the doors nor turn off the horn, so my son simply tried to start the engine, and it started instantly and the horn went off as well. I do not know why the horn keeps going off when we try to jump start it, that has never happened before. I literally have put 20 miles on this rig in the last 9 months. Time for tires.
 
Something similar happened to me with one of my keys after it went through the washer. If i hit any button the alarm would go off but I could start the car with the key. Could you have caused some water damage to you key since the last time you used it?
