Default 96 Camry Ignition Locked (Won't Crank)

I have a 96 Toyota Camry that broke a right front axle. While awaiting a tow truck the Horn and locks triggered (I assume an alarm system isssue) I have now replaced the axle and the car will not start. I have checked all the fuses and have sufficient battery charge.
Any ideas what to look for next?

See your other post.

If a factory or Toyota dealer installed alarm, it is called a VIP RS3000. An internet search should turn up posts on how this system works. This system has a blinking light on the dash.

It is factory installed with the light on the console between the seats however the factory installed radio was removed prior to my purchasing the car

This is good as the radio may have had its own security system that would also have been set.

If you look on the internet, you should be able to find the RS3000 manual, see link below:

If the light is blinking, the system is armed.

This is a common issue, disconnecting the battery and having the security system engage. Most people don't learn of the problem until changing their old battery for a new one.
