Quick question about security system, thanks.

2007 TL-S

So I need to head out right now.
But I don't have my keyfob with me, I left it in my jacket, which is in my mom's car.

But I don't wanna wait for her to come back so I can get my key back, but I have the valet key.

My question is, if I used the fob to lock the car. Will the alarm sound if I open the doors and drive the car with the valet key?

No. As long as you open the door with a key, the alarm will not sound.

I have a spare key, without the immobilizer chip, in my garage in case the doors are locked and I want to open them, and that doesn't sound the alarm either.

You're probably gone by now, but if you're not, it's safe to go.

Oh really? Thanks for the help man.
I'm actually still here. I told my friends I'll be abit late. They don't eat that fast anyways.

I was hesitating when I was at my car, I put in the valet key but I was afraid to unlock the car.

Thanks for the help though.

As long as the key has the correct immobilizer chip in it, it can unlock the doors without the alarm sounding.
