The alarm locking mechanisim is with my husband and I am at our home. He must have locked it by accident and now everytime I open the door manually with my key, it honks and the lights flash. How can I fix this problem without the remote?

Operation of the theft deterrent system is discussed in the 1999 Toyota Camry Owner's Manual beginningh on page 21. Unlocking the door with the key should disarm the alarm system. If it does not disarm when using the key, there are only two possibilities:
> You have an aftermarket alarm system installed in addition to the system tht was provided by the manufacturer and they are interfering with each other.
> OR
> Your vehicle needs service to correct the malfunction.
You might try unlocking the car from the passenger side or use the key to open the trunk first to see if this works. If it does, the switch inside the driver door is probably malfunctioning.

Just unlocking the car with the key turns the alarm off.

I believe this was done as a safety feature. It stops a potential car hyjacker from sneaking in the passenger door when you open the driver door. I know recent Hyundai models are set up such that if you turn the key in the driver's door once it only unlocks the driver's door. If you turn it twice in quick succession it unlocks all of the doors. Maybe the Camry is set up the same way.

Hi Toyota Ed,
I can't see any black box under driver front seat. Will get husband to check when he gets home. This camry is late 1997, V6 auto, Model: MCV20 if that is of any help.??

Either the wring going to that motor or the motor itself is bad.
