Hi, I always use this feature. The thieves use to go to your home to steal your car. From a report I read, now the thieves wait for the right car at the mall for example. Thieve 1 stand by your car, thieve 2 follow you, get the signal, send it to thieve 1, than your car is gone . Turn off your key fob every time you walk away from your car, especially if its one of the most popular to be stolen in your area.
Lol, my 2022 RAV4 hybrid Fob used to open and close the windows, My 2024 Zilch. Also the 2024 Toyota Dynamic Navigation system is utterly useless. The 2022 was outstanding. Cheers NZ.
Great info! One added note about turning off the key faub transmission is that doing that also prevents car thieves from using faub hacking technology to steal the car. If the car is parked in close enough proximity to a house wherein keys are left near the door, the thieves use a program to boost the faub signal between the faub key and car faub, then transfer the code to a new blank faub which allows them to start and drive off with the car. Turning off the faub key protects the car from theft. It’s simple and easy to turn back on.
Great video! Very informative, thanks! Additionally, if you press lock 3x's and hold it on the 3rd time for a few seconds, your remote starter will activate.
I was happy to learn about the all 4 door unlock. Everybody wrenching my handle when they have to wait for me to get in. I always bury my fob and forget to bring it out!
We like to create a car binder or add to the existing binder for every car we buy and I like to take a picture and place it all into the binder. Or take pictures and organize it into my emails (by emailing myself). Or organize files on my smart phone. Now I just remove that tiny metal code from the key fob. I think this is an awesome YT channel. I think I might start making YT channels to record longer stuff and set it to private mode or something. Awesome content, thanks. ❤
3:40 Also, from my research, the roll-down-windows after holding the unlock button IS a feature but it is turned off by default you have to either have the dealer enable it or get one of those bluetooth tools like Carista and enable it that way.
Thank you! The trick to get all the doors to open worked on my 2021 Prius. I had it set up that way and then it stopped. I’m sure it was because I had too much in my pocket with my fob and this was a great video to reset it how I liked.
Great video. Just what I was looking for. I think the 30 second auto lock is what is throwing me off. It seems that I have to wait 30 seconds before I can lock the doors with the remote.
touch the lines on the door handle, it will lock immediately. Using the Key FOB it should lock when you Press Lock and not wait on any timer. There is a Timer Setting for Doors to Lock when scrolling through the Infotainment screen. Mine does not appear to work. I have a 2023 Camry XSE V6 fully loaded and I can walk away and the car does not automatically lock. It will stay unlocked 24/7 unless I touch the outer door makings, lock with Key FOB, or via the Toyota App. My wife's 2022 Honda Civic Touring does lock automatically when beyond 15 to 20 feet from the car. Leaving the KeyFOB inside the car, your car screams at you. LOL
That's interesting that you can use the physical key to open/close windows, but not the buttons on the keyfob. I tried that on my 2018 Corolla and it didn't work
Thanks for the video. I'm considering the 2025 Camry or Crown. Can you remote roll down the windows with the fob (ideally a just an inch as well as all the way)? How about open the trunk with the fob?
@@boedilllard5952 it’s a lot better on the newer Toyotas. This was pretty old technology. You should be able to do all of that and remote start without it turning off when you open the door
I’m pretty sure that if your trim level has remote start you can activate it by pressing the lock??? Button 3 times??? and then press and hold the unlock? Button until the lights flash and the car starts. The vehicle will shut off if you open a door which is a safety feature because otherwise someone might be able to get in and drive off for a short distance ( like right into the side of your house or another vehicle ).
Yeah, I made another video on it but I find it odd because my other vehicles continue to run but don’t give you control until you push the push button start and it recognizes the key fob.

Hi any help.. my 4runner is brand new... so i only changed setting of unlock from driver only to all. Then after that my lock and unlock button now did not work but it can the sensor on grab handle works fine. I can lock by pressing the sensor but not the key. What do you think is the issue? Thank you
I have problem, that If I touch the door, it takes like 5-10 seconds untill it opens. Sometimes it works immediatelly, but very often it takes time and I need to press the botton on the door multiple times. Is there a reason for that?
I would think it might be from a weak remote battery. If not, I’ve also noticed the key fob has to be pretty close. I’ve had it in my left pocket and had to turn so my leg is right next to the door. I think they really want safety to be in mind so they don’t let the fob work until it’s really close so no one else could open the door when you are nearby
3:10 I have a 2013 model... I'm most curious to see if the rolling windows/sunroof thing works on my model. I never use the actual key, but I'm curious if it works.
Yes, this actually works I do it all the time, especially when my battery is getting low and my signal won't reach as far! I saw an episode on Mythbusters about it years ago, so I had to try it when I got my first car with a key fob ... You'll be surprised as to how much further it will reach 💁♀️
I want to buy additional key fobs for my 2010 limited edition RAV4 in program them. I programmed key fobs before but there's a problem with this.

Is there anyway after you start your truck using your key fob and then you go up to your truck and open the door to make it stay running after you open the door I just find that feature absolutely stupid. my wife’s 2014 Ford fusion. You can start the car get inside and you can’t drive the car unless you have the key fob in your pocket and you push the start button then it allows the car to be driven you don’t have to start your car twice every time you wanna drive it I just find that to be unnecessary wear.

Ok then how are they hacking my company owned 2019 Toyota Tacoma 4x4,when it never came with a remote? A few months ago,I would find doors unlocked,when I KNOW they were locked! Also this past weekend two different times,drivers window rolled halfway down. I'm a certified diesel mechanic,so I've been around. Also had 3 years of radio tv repair in high school.

I disagree. The technology in my 2023 Toyota Rav4 XLE suits me fantastically, plus the app tells me exactly what is happening with my vehicle. What kind of "technology" are you referring to?
They are 10 years ahead on hybrid tech but they are 10 years behind on infotainment system, bluetooth, remote services, remote start, etc. It's absolute junk that they just upcharged you 3k.
@@andrewkhody I upgraded from a 2001 Toyota Corolla that is still with the original engine. I only upgraded because I wanted the technology. Say what you want about Toyota, but one thing their cars are NOT is junk. The data and their place in automotive history ought to tell you that. Besides, I would rather have a reliable Toyota that is "behind" on technology than any car loaded with technology that is going to leave me stranded DESPITE all that crap.
Wish they would shove their "smart key" somewhere the sun doesn't shine. Just a bunch of stuff to not work and cost a fortune to fix. They darned sure aren't built for people that work, or spend much time outside, or on the water ! The fact you can not lock a 4 runner while it is running and keep it running puts me out of the market for a Toyota ! I love the fact that a new 50k vehicle tells the owner what they can and can't do instead of the other way around !

The tag makes it much easier but they should be able to help at the dealership with 2 keys or sometimes the VIN of the vehicle
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage In our case we are still waiting on the second key....anyone else dealing with this new 2023 feature. I can buy a second one...or wait for Toyota to send me another one around January 2024...kinda ridiculous...if they can sell me one, they could have given me two.
I turn mine off every time i leave the Tacoma
Hi
Toyota is 10 years behind on technology.
Yet I’m happier with them for reliability over my GM
I disagree. The technology in my 2023 Toyota Rav4 XLE suits me fantastically, plus the app tells me exactly what is happening with my vehicle. What kind of "technology" are you referring to?
They are 10 years ahead on hybrid tech but they are 10 years behind on infotainment system, bluetooth, remote services, remote start, etc. It's absolute junk that they just upcharged you 3k.
@@Childfree334 my 2021 was the last of its bodystyle and yes, was behind, but the new ones like yours are up to date 👍🏼
@@andrewkhody I upgraded from a 2001 Toyota Corolla that is still with the original engine. I only upgraded because I wanted the technology. Say what you want about Toyota, but one thing their cars are NOT is junk. The data and their place in automotive history ought to tell you that. Besides, I would rather have a reliable Toyota that is "behind" on technology than any car loaded with technology that is going to leave me stranded DESPITE all that crap.
Wish they would shove their "smart key" somewhere the sun doesn't shine. Just a bunch of stuff to not work and cost a fortune to fix. They darned sure aren't built for people that work, or spend much time outside, or on the water !
The fact you can not lock a 4 runner while it is running and keep it running puts me out of the market for a Toyota ! I love the fact that a new 50k vehicle tells the owner what they can and can't do instead of the other way around !
