Anti-theft and insurance question
Hi folks,
I have the Toyota added anti-theft alarm and am currently receiving a passive device discount from my insurance company. However, does the TCH have an active disabling anti-theft device as well? Thanks! Mike |

Re: Anti-theft and insurance question
If I recall correctly, the TCH is considered an 'immobilzer' and qualifies for the active system discount.
Could be wrong...usually am. |

I think haroldo is right why else is there the flashing key in the dash???

Without the smartkey, this thing is a "brick". I have seen references on this forum that things get very difficult for even a dealer without a key.

Re: Anti-theft and insurance question
According to my insurance company (belairdirect), a passive system is an alarm system that makes noise, but doesn't stop you from driving the car. An active system is one which also immobilizes the car, making it undriveable. The TCH qualifies as having an active system even before you add the Toyota alarm.

Thanks for the clarification on active vs. passive. |
