DIY Keyless Entry

How about a 2012? Will this work for it?

Which kit is the best to use?

Like with cruise control, keyless is identical for your 2012 sedan. The 2012 sedan gets little love, as it was only sold as a fleet vehicle, so aftermarket companies don't really reference it.

As for brands, any of the DEI brands are good choices (viper, python, clifford, avital, etc.)

Interesting, I guess I can confirm that as this car was a rental vehicle originally from FL. According to CarFax...

been trying to figure this one out for 2 days now. I bought the avital keyless system from a-1 electric. I have an 08 yaris hatch with central locking (lock button in between the front seats)... I can get it to unlock all the doors and flash the parking lights, so everything seemed to be going well.

No matter what I do, I can't get it to lock the doors. I followed the DIY on here and connected the unlock wire to the green wire in GD1, my lock wire is connected to the thin brown wire. Is it possible the brown wire in my car doesn't carry the lock signal??

Take a look at the revised one that I put together after installing it one the first one of mine. There is an issue with this one where if you have operated the lock on the door manually, the remote will not work properly. The correct wires for lock and unlock are noted in mine (if memory serves me correctly, it is only one of the two that is incorrect):

Hi CTScott,

Thanks for the reply. I did find your other post and had changed my unlock wire from orange to green. So everything works for UNlocking. The lock wire in the diy and in your post is the brown wire in gd1 pjn 5. I did notice in another post in the link you provided that there may be another LOCK wire in that GD1 harness. Could that be the issue?

Lock is definitely the brown wire on GD1. Try touching a jumper wire from it's pin to the chassis ground bolt and if it locks when you do so, either your connection to the wire is bad or your device has a bad output relay.
