Pls check out my other video:
2008 Mercedes Benz C300 W204 ESL Fault Fixed with an Emulator
• Mercedes Benz ESL Repa...
This video is for all Toyota proximity smart keyless entry car owners.
The remote proximity has a button on the door handle to lock and a sensor in the handle that picks up the key fob and unlocks when you reach your hand behind the handle to open the door.
The remote proximity smart key, also known as keyless entry allows you to open your car and start it without
touching the smart key fob, a small device that transmits a code to a car’s computer when in close range.
Today, we a 2019 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid with a proximity smart key and a push to start system.
This applies to all newer Toyotas with similar features.
I’m going to show you how I protect my car from being stolen by car thieves

They stole mine 2 days ago...
Sorry to hear that. Do you have any idea how they did it?
@@mekanik3787 yes, they removed a part above the front wheel, pulled the connector cable that is used to reset errors plugged in a device, and the car was opened ready to go. All done in 3minutes :(
@@Scrubosaur Thanks for sharing that very important info. I’ll check if there is a better way of securing this point of weakness from intrusions. 🙏
@@Scrubosaur That stinks , Can you share the type , model etc. of your car or truck? Am just wandering if i have the same type.
@@justd02ofus 2019 Hybrid 2,5 Selection. But they do exactly the same with all new models even with 2023 as Toyota didn't change nothing in that aspect.
I am glad, after discussing things with my manager at Autozone, I knew I didn't want a push start due to electrical issues causing repetitive battery draining problems, so I wanted a normal key. I was delighted to find my 13' had a normal key entry & start though I know that never guarantees it won't be stolen or have issues. But it made me feel better and I love it entirely.
They have one like that? No push just regular key.
Manufacturers also need to include additional security options, like an optional passcode, that drivers can initiate to prevent future theft.
I agree
Adds $$$$$$ ti the purchase of a new car😅
HOnestly, what I did was buy a small Faraday keybox (which fits in my pocket and is only slightly larger than the key itself). I put the remote to sleep and then removed the battery (keep the keyless remote in the Faraday box). I also got a few copies of the mechanical key made. I use the mechanical key to unlock the doors, and to start the car, I just open one end of the Faraday box to expose the key and hold up to the push button starter until it beeps and then start the car. Again, this limits the range and the Faraday box protects the key (even though the battery is removed). By using the mechanical key, and removing the battery, the keyless entry on the door handles (proximity sensor) doesn't work so the doors have to be locked using the button the front doors or the mechanical key.
Doing this method might be overkill,. but it also means that your key is no longer transmitting a signal since the battery is removed. The Faraday box helps protect anyone from even capturing the signal, and the mechanical key for the door lock means that the proximity lock/unlock feature is non-functional on the car. With the battery removed, you do have to hold the key close to the ignition switch (about 2-3 inches, as there is a wireless signal that is transmitted from the car, but it's very short range, maybe a few inches so it's too weak for anyone to pick up. Plus for the car to start, the key fob has to respond so this makes it much harder for anyone to get the frequency or code from the key fob. I also would recommend a metal Faraday container, as the pouches tend to wear out from being folded and unfolded (and thus the thin metal material can break apart where the pouch folds. If you do use faraday pouches, I'd say replace them about every year or so just to be sure that it's still securing your key fob's signal. But the best route is the one I described above: Key fob case (Faraday box/cage), put the remove to sleep, remove the battery, and only use the mechanical key to unlock the doors.
For additional security, and not specific to Toyotas, if you have to store your car somewhere outdoors for a long period of time (say at an airport) remove the starter relay from the underhood fuse panel. This will prevent the car from starting unless someone has a relay for that specific generation of car (this isn't a surefire way to ensure anti-theft, but it will make it harder for someone to steal as they would have to then get a starter relay to start the vehicle -- obviously doesn't stop them from towing the vehicle).
I rigged up an explosive device in my car so that the thieves get blown up to pieces
I'll add a steering wheel lock as well.
An expert thief good in electronics can always steal a locked car.
They can still steal it by accessing the CAN bus thru a headlight under the front fender. There's a youtube video showing this theft completed in 2 minutes. Best is to install a fuel pump immobilizer switch.
Works with Subaru's as well. 2022 Legacy and I have been doing this since the delivery of this car a month ago
Informative
But
I wonder how much it really helps if the enemy is present when you use the remote. It seems it only helps from accidently sending the signal while the remote is in your pocket.
Buy a car with a key then no worries. You can still unlock with the fob.
Thank you
What happened to me when i park in new york street they use signal jammer to block your key signal to lock the car
Just be careful double check before you leave the car
Right on point! Situational awareness and proper knowledge is key. Thanks for your comment. Have a great day!👍
I'd Hide a disable ignition switch in the car somewhere instead.
Best to hide it under the car hood somewhere 😊
Good idea. Heck of a pain if car gets stolen on a cold night from parking lot at work.
This is also works on older models such as the 2018 Toyota Corolla with smart key. The key fob is a older design, but works the same way
Great info! Cheers!👌
Mean when u want to leave ur car for some time u may disable the keyless system then it will be secured? And when u need to use the car again u press any bottom then u able the system again! I didn't understand about the small bag for the key actually for what ?
I used to install car alarms every time I lock my car I locked from my door switch so the signal doesn’t travel in the air because when you lock 🔐 your car from the door the signal going true the wires sistem and can’t be detected from theft.

went old school and bought a bright yellow club (steering wheel lock) for my 2021 Venza. I hope the thief sees this through the window and decides to move on 😬
You do know a simple hacksaw blade to cut Thu the wheel defeats the club
@@Nic1Morenoit would take a long while to cut through the thick rod. Thieves don't spend more than a few mins around a car they intend to steal.
@@gbasibe001 One cut in the steering wheel is quick. I've done it many times with the fire dept removing victims.
I have the luck on my car and it was stolen yesterday
I bought the car on Friday
Note:
- Does not work with a 2010 Toyota Rav4 Limited
Get a GPS unit and attach it to your car as well..
Unfortunately, this applies to other brands as well (not the key fob sequence though). The scumb*gs lurk around in parking lots in wait for victims. Thieves disabled my Acura alarm system to break in (and 3 others) about 3 years ago at a park's parking lot. Since then, I try to use the manual key as much as possible in public lots.
Is it required for both remote keys to deactivate ? In order to stop sending signals to theft?
it is working for my dad 2019 toyota land cruiser smart key?
I have a 2019 Corolla xse that is never parked on the street other than when I go to the mall. I've been a car owner for 4 decades +. I still use the original CLUB. At least if my car is gone i know they had a tow truck or a setaline torch
You don't cut the steering lock, you cut the steering wheel.
I’m using now 1 club and 1 club attached to brake . Now looking for keyed obd2 keyed lock . BUT Toyota / Lexus IS usually quality but there refusal to acknowledge this world wide problem suspicious of their care . They’re doing nothing knowing these cars are #1 in thefts throughout the world . Rumour has it they won’t change the software because of future profit using the computer and Toyota software for subscription payments to unlock premium features
Dude I just bought the Old School Bright Yellow Club for my Venza LOL, I hope they see that ugly gawdy thing and just say "F" this and move on to the next one.
@@strongforce79 that’s usually what they do.
Did you mean acetylene torch?
Besides this feature, there is a Toyota Official App. Which basically collects data from your vehicle, reminds you with coming inspections, condition of your car, etc., and it shows exactly where your car is all the time and in case of theft report the location to the police. I know, thieves can go many lengths but maybe it's just another additional help.
what if a thieft has your other key? Can you disable that key?
At home, placing fob(s) in a covered metal box will block the signal. Once disabled you do not have to use key to enter vehicle. Pressing any button reactivates the fob so you simply press the unlock button get in and start.
Yes thats right, no need for using mechanical key
They can still pick the lock to open the door, and access to OBD socket to clone a new fob and drive your car away.
But if a thief is hanging around a parking lot waiting to grab the rf signal, wouldn’t they just get it as soon as you re-enable the key to start the car?
lol. That’s what insurance is for.
If you have the key the car won't started even if leave Break in Car company's are wasted time to make something like that
If someone wants to steal your car, they will steal your car
My older brother always say that to me and one day I say "That's true but then why do you even lock your car doors and roll up the windows?"
I have a 2012 Prius and I am completely lost at what you are doing. You used the key and the keyless fob.
Very confusing. I have a valet key. Do I use it just like an ordinary key to lock and unlock? Then how do I set the alarm and turn it off before I use my key?
Ive ordered a Toyota corolla SE with the smart key .. Will my SE smart key have all of these abilities?
You may follow the steps laid out on my video and do let me know the result. Cheers!
I mean if they do steal it you’ll know where it is
My 22 highlander got stolen in Montréal last week. Video footage was done without braking anything under 5 min
Let's present a video that sounds like a computer with monitonal insomnia.
is there way to let down all windows with smart key.. thxs for video
Hello. This YT vid may help you. Cheers!🙂 th-cam.com/video/6NZtIoBVMX0/w-d-xo.html
I'd relocate to another country, if I had to endure this sh1t just secure my car! LOL
Sad part is this stuff is going around worldwide at least from everything that I have been reading and seeing
Does anyone had a problem on starting their rav4 2020? Because I do😭😭 my dad did this and our car won’t start😭 can anybody help?
Were you guys able to utilized the backup key FOB to start your RAV4?
Little benefit when I still have to have the FOB active to start the car.
u can disablle that
That’s why I only buy cars with actual keys.
So you only by old cars..got it.
@@ResplendentRaider uh no. There are a bunch of new males and models that still use keys. Why don’t you do all of us a favor and go outside and touch some grass goofy.
They stole mine also even when the keys were in a special bag which kills the signal to the car so still don’t know how they stole it
What I know is that sniffing what your key sends is useless as the key transmitted changes everytime you click the button, right?
I don’t know if Toyota offers rolling codes for their smart keys. If anybody knows pls do comment down below. 🙏Thanks!👌
Not that I know of!
Put a heavy duty toggle switch under the car hood somewhere to shut it off from car theft.
Cost few dollars to to this.
Problems solved.
This is just my opinion.
Opinions may vary😊
yes, brilliant. that way they can never steal your car.
If you want the best solution, install an IGLA system. It’s an electric killswitch that disables ignition that’s hidden anywhere within the CAN bus system. Even if the thieves stole your keys or key fob, they won’t be able to start your car without entering the PIN code (made up of up to 20 button sequence presses of the buttons that’s already on your car). Simply put, if the thief wants to take your car, they have to tow it. That negates 99.9% of thieves who don’t walk around at night with a tow truck. Better yet, combine your IGLA with a Compustar alarm that detects shock, glass break or car tilt and the independent alarm goes off (has its own battery) and sends a message to your phone.
Although I love my 2021 Rav 4 XLE, I don't care if it gets stolen. I have insurance that covers theft plus gap. Won't cost me a dime. 🤷🏾♀️
Yeah absolutely no worries. Just wait till insurance pays you, wait till new car is delivered and may lose something important with your car too. Ah yes and then pay car rental until you have the new one or go by public transport. Very pleasant
Don’t you have to pay excess (mine was deducted from value of car) sum and also what the time you have to wait for insurance to pay you and purchase a new car. I find this frustrating and could do without.
Avoid buying the top five most stolen makes in USA/Canada: Acura/Honda, Lexus/Toyota, Jeep/Dodge, Land Rover and Ford. Next, use a steering wheel club lock. And if you can, stick to older vehicles with physical, metal ignition keys - you can still get nice VWs, Nissan, Subarus, GM and others from 2018 or so thus equipped. This will decrease the odds of your car being stolen. Bonus points if you drive a manual transmission. For example, no one in Africa wants your 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander with 2wd and manual shift.
Wow. I could not handle the uncertainty of wondering if my car were stolen. Not with my a.d.h.d.
Tried this, my key won't deactivate 🤔🤔🤔
Look like a hassle , just get a key ignition
use a kill switch
Good info I already knew about but why are you using annoying robotic voice software? You seem to know English from your replies, or are you using a translator to reply?
Who cares that's what insurance is for, not like Toyota is a good car worth not being stolen...
How about the car emitting the signal. Can't they just use a device to open the car without the need to wirelessly copy a key fob of the owner?
That push start kind of annoying.
Click and bait !! Check your Toyota manual,all the information are there!!
..super expensive key fob on crappy cars.................................still a simple key to open the door of a $300.00dls house.
How about placing the blame on Toyota. Funny how my sons Kia as both the promity key and an ignition. Cant believe these manufacturers are that incompetent that they design cars to be stolen.
Besides all the good advise below I also did 2 more things. 1) Cover your VIN # on the dash smart keys can programmed based on VIN # by unscrupulous people with access to a dealer. 2) Relocate your OBD diagnostic port or buy an OBD port lock. High Tech thieves will break the driver's door handle to gain entry then hack your car and just program a new key and drive away. I prefer relocation over a lock. You can purchase powered dummy OBD ports that will power a hacker's equipment but not allow communication and extend your real port to a discrete place of your choosing.
