  • Factory Alarm System..

    Not sure if this topic has been covered. If it has I haven't been Able to find any info.
    Is it possible to retrofit the factory alarm that is fitted to the GXL and above to the Gx ?.. :idea:
    Apart from the obvious convieniance of being able to arm disarm the alarm system from the key.
    Are there any drawbacks in doing this, if it is possible. Rather than fitting an aftermarket alarm system.
    And are there motion sensors fitted or able to be fitted to the factory alarm system ?.

      Not a stupid question at all. Sorry I can't help you but wait a little and someone may. It's probably something that may not have been done yet. Chat to your dealer for a start and keep checking here - eventually I'm sure someone will help.

        Hi,

        I would imagine you could if it is similar to the 120 GXL for instance , the 08 model GXL D4D 120 has a connector above the instrument
        panel for a alarm unit but Toyota don't have it as an option. The wiring for the siren is also there. The factory siren for the
        120 is located behind the spare wheel. The only problem area I see is that in a 120 for instance, the alarm inputs come from
        the body ECU. If the body ECU is not programmed for the alarm it won't work. I would imagine it is though.

        Generally the wiring will be there just not the hardware.

        Of course you will most likely find that to buy the missing hardware as spares will be much more expensive than having a good
        after market unit fitted. Keep an eye out though as there maybe some crash tested units around you could get parts from.

        Cheers

          The Factory Alarm system is Useful when, in your factory if some situation that would be problematic with your factory, which means that any type of fire situation or else. And if your alarm would not then I recommend replace the door switches as they always go bad, in fact using them as they were such a problem, your remote transmitter (if you have one) should also disarm the alarm.

              Funny story about Prado alarm.
              My dear wife didn't know the Prado had an alarm...and after dropping me off at the airport in the wee hours of the morning, she stopped at a service station, turned off the ignition, locked herself in and had a sleep....eventually woke up, and without opening any doors or touching anythine else, put foot on brake and pushed the start button.....and..... almost wet herself from the noise, and had no idea how to turn the alarm off....... Well...now finally wide awake, she pushed the unlock button on the remote and silenced the alarm, but not before waking up every truck driver nearby....yep, the alarm works :mrgreen:

                I am in Sydney, own a GXL, and have had fitted an alarm upgrade with motion sensor, bonnet opening sensor, glass breakage detection, separate alarm noisemaker, etc, and it operates from the standard key fob. Suggest you fit a good alarm system, as a few new prados in Sydney just disappear, most likely onto the back of a tow truck, and the Toyota alarm does not activate in that situation.

                A few companies produce an alarm upgrade that will fit the Toyota system.

                  Nah, I think I'll just let my wife sleep in the Prado all the time... :mrgreen:

                  Seriously though, good advice, as clearly the alarm is not all that alarming!!

                    Hi Yowie..
                    I was aware that it is possible to upgrade the alarm on the GXL..
                    Just Don't know if it can be done on the GX as there is no factory alarm fitted.!!!
                    More specifically have any of the member's with a GX had any luck with integrating an alarm into the original fob ??..
                    If so I'am interested to know what is available and your personal experience's with your particular units ??..

                    Thanks again..

                      I assume the GX key fob is the same as other models, therefore the electronic system can be tapped in to and the alarm integrated with it.

                      Go for a well known brand alarm, rather than from someone who has never been heard from before. I know that Mongoose manufacture one, am sure there will be others in S.A.
