To reset the security system in a Toyota Tacoma, try this shade tree mechanic method. You will need a paper clip and about a half hour. Ben the paperclip into a tight u-shape. Insert the two ends of the clip into holeS4 and 13 of the ODB-2 port on the bottom of the dash on the drivers side. Turn the key to the ON position and leave it that way for 30 minutes. After the time expires, turn the ignition off and remove the paperclip. You should now be able to start the engine and will turn off the security light on the instrument panel. This method is especially useful following an ECU replacement and the alarm needs to be relearned.

In order to reset the alarm on a toyota tacoma, simply insert the key into the ignition and cycle between run and off five times, and then start the car on the sixth rotation.
