Truck Alarm
Hey! 2000 Tundra with what I believe is an aftermarket car alarm. I bought it over a year ago and everything has been good. Every now and then the alarm will honk (the sound it makes when I lock it). No rhyme or reason. The battery and alternator have both been recently replaced however the alarm has been doing this since I got it. Oh, and all the fuses are good too.
Thoughts?

Hardbody Idle & Acceleration Issue (Stumped!)
Last week, my truck wouldn’t crank on the first try but would on the second, running perfectly afterward. Then, out of nowhere three days later, it died on the highway—cranks but won’t catch. I’ve recently replaced the fuel pump, injectors, IACV, TPS, MAF, and coolant temp sensor. TPS calibrated to spec.
Issues:
• Bogging on acceleration, high idle but feels air-starved briefly on acceleration & randomly won't catch / gets bogged out on crank
• Unplugged throttle body sensors each individually, no change.
• ECU shows code 55 (no codes).
• Wired up correctly, feels throttle/air related.Any ideas?

Window problems
VW Beetle convertible. Front passenger window regulator has snapped. Window was stuck up which was fine for the time being but hubby lent on it and pushed it all the way in 🙄
Any idea dead for how to get the window back up until I can get it fixed? Not super confident with taking it apart.
