change siren chirp to keyless beep

Hi All. Recently install DEI alarm into 2007 4runner. The siren lock chirps are still too loud on the softest setting so i want to see if I can use the factory keyless chirp piezo buzzer which is quieter. This would be just for the lock confirmation chirp and the siren would sound in the event of an alarm activation. Could I connect the lock wire alarm wire directly to one of the factory buzzer wires? Or any other suggestions? All I really care about is the lock confirmation--don't really need the unlock. thank you for any help.

I don't think theres an easy way. The factory uses a speaker not a piezo. I recently bought this for my MDX but haven't tried it yet. When I do, I'll let you know how it works. http://www.kptechnologies.com/products.php#/9

Yes let us know how it works out. I guess I could alway buy a piezo from Radio Shack and wire it in somehow. Also the siren has a wire that can be cut to increase the chirp sound. If left uncut it reduces the chirp sound which is the way I have it now. Maybe if I wire a resistor in line with that one wire it will decrease the chirp volume level ??

Turn off "confirmation chirps" in programming, and use light flashes for confirmation instead. Use "silent arming" to eliminate the chirps. Read the Owner's Guide, it's a 2 button push. for example, push say Aux, then Lock. No chirp, but light flashes still work. Read the guide for which button it is you push first.

duplicate, again. The site has been acting funky for a few days. I reply, and get a 505. In the future I'll be more careful to F5 and see if it went through anyway before I re-send. Sorry.

Thanks yes I did read the manual and I do know about silent arming. I don't want silent arming because that eliminates all chirps including the warn away function chirp. Parking light flash confirmation is fine but on sunny days I can't see the lights flash after arming. Also Toyota has auto headlight delay at night so the lights stay on for 30 sec after exiting vehicle and won't flash when armed. So again don't see flash confirmation. Currently have the confirmation chirps turned off. Looking for quieter confirmation chirp. Any suggestions appreciated. thanks!

I did not know it eliminates the warn-away chirps. Does the one-time Silent Arm also eliminate the warn-away? If not, you can condition yourself to use the silent arm in the places you don't want to annoy anyone. Like your neighbors. Like the guy 2 houses up with a $500 POS Camery. I'm ready to burn his car its so annoying. Do I need to "jump" at my desk while I'm working every time he gets in or out of his car? I think not. At least you're trying to come up with a solution so as not to be annoying. I think that's cool. Maybe the 2-button silent-arm is a stop-gap until you figure out something else.
