Factory Anti-Theft won't chirp

Do you all know how to make the factory anti-theft chirp? I'm guessing there is a way to enable/disable it.

Most likely Piezo chirper next to battery is dud, or prev owner disabled it, if it never chirped. What model is the alarm?

Worked before the engine swap, everything looks to still be attached. There seems to be a fuse inside the driver kick panel that I'll check tomorrow when it's light. How do you tell which alarm it is?
Thanks
Jason

I'm positive mine's factory, I'm hoping just the Piezo is bad and can be ordered.

Well the obvious way to tell if it's factory is by the fob. Should have toyota emblem. As far as I know there are two types the rs3000(which I have. Coffin shaped black fob) and rs3200. Former has two buttons and the latter three.

Yep, guess I have the RS3000. Thanks for the link too, I have two extra remotes coming so they'll need reprogrammed.

Well the extra remotes were a bust, idiot said they're from a 96 T4R but failed to mention an aftermarket unit. Oh freaking well.

Thanks to everybody for sending info on the piezo, RS replacement worked out perfect this evening. Works like new now.
