    Hi sirs/madams.

    I had a TVSS alarm installed in my ride (Vios G) and would like to adjust/increase its sensitivity. Where and How can i do this?

    One of d tsikot member at our Vios thread said that it can only be done at d casa. Are there any of u guys who can possibly provide an input as it is time consuming to bring back d unit at d casa just to have it adjusted. Not to mention the long queue at the service section of toyota.

    Another question, at one instance i used the remote of d alarm to lock d car then used d key with transponder to unlock d car. The alarm was triggered and did not stop until i used d remote of d alarm to unlock it. By the way, nabuksan nman nung transponder key yung kotse yun nga lang nag full alarm cya.

    I'd like to post the pics of d transponder key and d remote of d TVSS for reference purposes but i cant seem to find the button in this tablet to do such thing.

    Your inputs are greatly appreciated.

    1st question, yun din narinig ko, toyota will adjust it pero last time i heard, mas mahal yung adjustment nila kaysa pakakabit ka na lang ng bagong alarm. and i have no idea bat napakamahal ng adjustment.

    2nd question, ganun talaga behavior ng alarm, one said that to turn off alarm, you have to turn the ignition key on (acc mode) and off 7 to 10 times. i havent tried it though.

    i think you can't increase the sensitivity of any alarm until you buy a new one with high range and sensitivity.And when you unlock the car most of the time the lock sensor will not work after you unlock that with fob and the light flashing with that some time.

    So pagtinamaan na sya nag aalarm na boss? Like ung usual na alarm system? Pagnaglock ka ba ng kotse using remote may tumutunog? 1.3g pala vios ko baka iba sa 1.5g.

    Sadly, wala na yung auto locks sa new Vios 2013, even when I inquire this sa TMBC, sabi nila talagang wala na daw even on new Prado.

    my 2nd gen vios doesn't have an autolock feature and shock sensor. i can live without the autolock feature but i can't without the shock sensor. hence, i bought an alarm module to upgrade the existing TVSS (without additional remote and using the OEM key fob).

    we have a 2012 Innova G, aside na nag-aalarm siya kapag open ang door at hood, nag-aalarm din siya every new year. so i guess, meron siyang shock sensor.

    On my fort, it automatically lock after 20 to 30 secs if you unlock it but did not open the door. As my understanding, tvss dont have shock sensors as standard option. They only alarm if the doors were opened when armed. Keyless entry lang yung remote ng tvss. Try to kick your tires or yugyugin nyo cya if it will alarm. Tvss can also be upgraded (depends on the model i guess) adding shock sensors and other modules like tilt sensors, pressure sensors, window ajar, etc. c/o Code Alarm.
