Does anyone have a picture of the TVSS alarm ECU they can post on here, I have found the sensitivity control but can't find the alarm ECU and it would be helpful to have an idea of what I am actually looking for. Also, locations - I have a 1997 LWB diesel Colorado, did they use a standard location for it, or if not, where have members found it to be located? Cheers. N.

If you read this http://www.tlocuk.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2968 it says that it's behind the radio.

I did use the search facility before posting on here and I have had my radio out (twice actually) looking for it without any luck, but it would help to know exactly what it looks like hence my request for a picture. I know it is supposed to be fairly small - Landcrusher says that its the size of a packet of 10 fags and hidden under a metal flap but there's nothing like that in mine.

Toyota tech docs

If you search using their form you can find the TVSS IIIB installation manual for your model.

If you know of a source for a replacement TVSS IIIB ecu kit I would be very very grateful because ours has locked in the armed position and my LC90 is undriveable and has been sat in the garage fopr the last month Evil or Very Mad

Try holding down the Open button, this could take up to a hour or more.
Try holding it down with a close peg. We have had the same problem and
this is what we have done.
