Re: 02 Keyless Chirp/ 99 Headlight issue

Do your headlights automatically come on with the 99? On my car, once it gets past a certain point of darkness, the lights come on by themselves and theres nothing you can do about it.

BUT, there is a quick fix for your situation at the drive-in movies...if you push the parking brake in even one-click, it disables the automatic headlights...you will have a "Brake" light on in the dash, and if you put it in a gear besides park or neutral youll have an annoying chime...but otherwise it should be fine. If Im not mistaken you will still have DRLs, but that shouldnt offend anyone too much....by the way if youre cold, just bring someone with you to warm you up *wink wink*

There is a procedure to make your horn honk too, its in the owners manual, Ill have to dig it up for you. Ill post back soon.

EDIT: Found the procedure in my owners manual, Im typing all this out for you, I hope your happy!

The operating mode of the remote activation verification lock (RAV) feature feature will be changed when the driver performs the following sequence with the doors closed and the ignition key in ON

1. Press and hold down the power door lock switch in the lock position

2. While holding the door lock switch, press and release the remote keyless entry transmitter LOCK button. This button press will initialize the customization mode. Upon initiation of this mode, the chime will sound the number of chimes corresponding to the current RAV lock mode.

3. Each additional press of the remote keyless entry transmitter LOCK button will cause the vehicle to advance the RAV lock mode one by one, starting from the current RAV lock mode

4. If cycled beyond RAV lock Mode 4, the vehicle will enter RAV lock mode 1. When the door lock switch is released, the vehicle will remain in the most recent RAV lock mode.

RAV lock modes are as follows:

Mode 1: No verification
Mode 2: Horn Chirp only
Mode 3: Headlamp and Parking Lamp Flash Only
Mode 4: Horn Chirp and Headlamp and Parking Lamp Flash


I suppose I could have simplified that a lot...too late now. Mode 4 is the way to go!
