Factory keyless remote settings

[pchuckie]

I have a new 09 Yaris that takes two pushes of the unlock button to unlock all of the doors on the car. The key/remote is the 3 button factory remote that came with the car. In the owners manual it talks about it can be changed to a single button push to unlock all dooors, but needs to be performed by a toyota dealer. I searched the forum and draw a goose egg, if you can help me out with the info or steer me how I missed it during a search I would appreciate it.

My guess is it's something simple like sit down buckle the seatbelt twice key on key off hit the brake and turn the car off.

Just checking, you do realize the two button push is for safety reasons, such as getting into your car at night so only the drivers door is unlocked.

Absolutely. Suggest you leave it that way Pchuckie. :wink:

Ok now I feel like I just got lectured by the police chief.
Yes I know its for safety, however every other car/truck I've owned has been a single button push. I want this one the same way.

BTW I'm not scared.

Nope. Wrong, it's the keyless ECU that needs to be reprogrammed with a Toyota flash unit.

I have a similar question (I think). My remote does not work when the ignition is on. This makes it difficult to warm-up my car in -40C temps. Before I get comments on the safety of this, I leave the club in place while I do this.
Thanks

It can be programmed with TechStream. At least, I've seen the option when I plugged it in.

Use the key to lock the doors on your back. I always have a double key for this purpose. It is programmed to disable the keyless entry once the car is started. That can't be changed AFAIK.
