TundraGeneral discussion forum for the 2007 and later Toyota Tundra.
This is a discussion thread titled "Alarm activation confirmed!", within the Tundra forum, part of the Truck Forums category.
we have done 3 '08's so far and everything seem to have went as advertised in the PDF, worked fine and had no reprocutions from it. I think you are right to call BS on that one there.

Thanks on confirming what I thought all along. Makes one wonder why some people feel they have to make up some sh*t. Also makes me concerned about the honesty of the people I am dealing with at the dealership. Thanks Again.
I went in on Tuesday for an oil change to set the alarm. I dropped the pdf instructions on the table,. Service manager asked, "what's this?" I told him it's for the alarm I'd like to set,for I'm about to order the Glass breakage package, He just looked at me for a second and said "Oh". About a hour and thirty minutes later, they were done. I had an oil change,tires rotated, and alarm activated for $80.00. The tech said they were good instructions, except he had to activate the glass breakage alarm as well.(I assume this was not in the pdf instructions) I hope the info helps, I'm probably repeating previous info,Oh well, Have a good one.

My '08 DC TG alarm was activated precisely as per the PDF - I was looking over the tech's shoulder.

I took mine to the dealership...got the "Deer in the Headlights" look. After a bit, they decided to give it a try...VIOLA...I have an active alarm. Its not the best, but it will do until I can get a Viper. Oh, and the ignition immobilizer works as well. ( It was hard to test that with the FREAKING horn going off in the garage).

I'll be damned. My alarm isn't on either...and I paid for it. The solid red light doesn't come on after 'arming' the system. It immediately flashes. Guess I'll have the dealer fix the problem the next time I get the oil changed. Sheesh.
I activated the alarm on my SR5 CM and then added the GBS from Sparks. Works like a charm. Set the GBS to 8, up from the 5 recomended as a starting point. Very pleased with the result.
I dont understand why its not activated when you first buy the truck. They take all that time to hook every thing else up inside and detail it ... sounds like a scam to have to pay for a tech to take 5 min to do some configurations.
