Good SoCal Dealer for alarm activation / Techstream?

[saki302]

Hello,

Can anyone recommend a good socal dealer to go to for the Techstream alarm activation and settings changes?

Preferably somewhere they won't give me a hard time and/pr not know what they're doing. I don't mind paying $50 for it.

Thanks!

PS- I'm in Los Angeles- but don't mind a drive to get it done right

bump for some help

I called the place I bought mine from (Glendale Toyota). They told me the tech should walk through the menus once with me for free.

I will maybe pass by there tomorrow morning (or the day after) and let you all know how it turns out. If it goes well, I'll ask how much it costs if you didn't buy your truck there, and pass along the info.

Update-

I took the truck to Glendale this morning, and they did the adjustments for free I have an alarm now!! Seatbelt chimes are off, and I got rid of the unlock-on-shift-to-park deal.

If you want yours done, my service writer was Henry Saunders, and the guy who actually did the flash is named Fernando- I think he is the shop foreman, REALLY nice guy. I tried to tip him, but he refused I will probably write Toyota a nice letter instead..
You will have to bring your truck there after 8:30am, and ask to speak to Fernando.

Fernando did it right in front of me with the laptop unit. If you want yours done, STUDY the pdf manuals on here and know exactly what you want done- it helps. He asked if I studied the programming options because I knew what to do for everything (not really, but I majored in computer science!).

Also, I didn't ask for an alarm activation, I asked to change the user preference settings with the Techstream unit, which is in fact exactly what you are doing
