Does your fob do anything other than lock and unlock ? does more than 1 button work ?

Wait, which one did you buy? From the OP first post ebay link? The picture looks different. Can you post your link? I need one of these for my 97 LX.

I simply use it to unlock/disarm, lock/arm, and panic/horn honks. Thanks to @BTUMAN for posting the following link up in another thread.
Here's the manual: http://jjguy.com/securikey/securikeycommonmanual.pdf On page 7, it explains how you can program up to 7 transmitter codes depending on what your alarm system is capable of doing.
I bought the $15.25 fob from the first post. New Toyota Replacement Keyless Entry Car Remote Alarm Transmitter Key Fob Click | eBay When I first paired it to my truck, I may have tried both the lock and unlock buttons to activate; because both buttons were able to lock or unlock the truck. (The other 4 buttons on the six button remote seem to do nothing.) When I got a second and third remote (mentioned later in the thread) I decided to clear all codes from my alarm. When I re-paired my remote, only one button controls the alarm/locks. I have not yet checked if the other button can be used to program the alarm system (valet mode, piezo chirp on/off, passive arming, etc.) or if the second button could be used on another RS3000 alarm so my brother and I can unlock each other's trucks. The way my alarm is set right now, the passive arming is enabled, but the piezo "chirp" is disabled.
I think it's pretty cool that if I unlock my truck via the remote, and then don't open a door within 30 seconds, it locks again, and the alarm re-arms. That's handy if you think you locked it as you walked away, but actually unlocked it.
I also thought it was cool that you can turn off the alarm with the key, even if the alarm is triggered, by turning the key to "on" then "accessory" then back to "on". At least according to RS3000 Toyota Vehicle Intrusion Protection
I'm having less luck... how do you know if your vehicle has it? I'm seeing the alarm under the drivers seat so I'm guessing it should have keyless entry but I didn't get a fob when I bought it. Thanks!
Welcome to the forum!
If you have the box under the driver's seat that looks like the ones pictured in the previous posts, and you have electric locking doors; you have an alarm and keyless entry. I didn't have a fob from the previous owner. I bought one of the ones mentioned in this post. Now I have working keyless entry and an alarm.

So my LX450 has an auto page remote start/ alarm keyless entry, it is creating parasitic drain and needs to be removed, I checked for the RS 3000 box under the seat but it's not there, it does have the security light on the dash, can I go back to the rs3000 provided I can find one or would I be better off to get a quality aftermarket unit?
My reason to stay with the RS3000, was based on it already having been installed, and my not want to create new splices in the 20 year old wiring. If I was installing a replacement alarm, the only way I'd consider trying to locate a 20 year old alarm to install, is if the previous harness was already intact, so it was a REALLY simple bolt-in. Assuming the old alarm was completely uninstalled when your current alarm was installed, I'd shop for a new aftermarket kit (or just see if the parasitic drain can be removed from the current alarm, even if that means no alarm or keyless entry.) Other than having an alarm, I don't see much value in having keyless entry without also having keyless engine start. As it is, I need to grab my fob to unlock (and disable my alarm) and then grab my key to start my truck. I don't find switching from fob to key any easier than just using the key to unlock the door.
for clarity, out there in the wide ocean of ebay, there is a "black" and a "gray" remote that you can buy for our 80's. they refer to the original 2 button OEM FOB's that came with the truck. they are not interchangeable. most of our trucks take the gray one but you have to see what system the dealer put in the truck. the fobs might even have the same FCC ID. i am also shocked someone got the 2nd button to work on an aftermarket fob. it 99% of the time only works with one button which just cycles lock and unlock.

This remote works perfectly for me. Only thing diff was I had to press the remote button within a much shorter span of time than 5 seconds - more like right after I pressed the unit button I had to press the remote button lickety split.
What’s the diffference between TVSS and RS3000? Bought a remote that would unlock the doors but will not lock the doors. System would arm though...
Just ordered one of these. Thanks for the help!
