how is everyone switching the pulse from one click to two clicks?
i plan to get the Viper model 211HV, like stated above, however, several different bundles are listed on ebay, any suggestions on which is best to buy?

thank you

If you have a base model without power lock, then no - You can control nonexistent actuators. If it is a base with power, but not keyless, then yes.

The keyless entry systems have configuration options, which allow things like single versus dual lock pulses.

On ebay the viper 211HVs are crazy cheap. Just make sure that you get one that is brand new, and not a used or theoretically refurbished one.

I have installed an Avital system using DanQ's instructions combined with
CTScott and SodiumDuck's addendum.....the Avital unit works perfectly....
I also installed it with the starter disabler, which required an add-on relay
available from Avital......everything works perfectly - wire colors and pinouts for connectors are the same so that all went really well....I got the Avital unit from Amazon
for $30.00 and the add-on relay from A-1 Electronics for another $10.00......
given how well ot all works and how easy it was to install (Mille Grazzi again to DanQ , CTScott and SodiumDuck) I'd have to say it was all money and time well spent!! :-)

I am adding my successful completion story thanks to these excellent step by step instructions and pictures and CTScott's revision picture. Thanks for both of your efforts to make this a pretty painless process.

One note, a list of "Things you will need" complete with sizes of splice connectors, other crimp-on needs, and tools might be a helpful suggestion. I found myself looking very closely at the pictures trying to figure out what size splice thingys I needed, and I had to just put the bare wires on the grounding lug because the loop thing I needed came as a complete surprise while in the middle of the installation.

Those wires in the kick plate and under the steering wheel are SUPER tiny sized, heh. In the pictures they look normal sized but in real life they are like strands of hair in my bulky man-hands. :) I was afraid the splice thingy was going to cut through them but they didn't! Excellent work you guys!

I had to have my daughter help me as I'm color blind and it was impossible to tell the difference in some of those wires! Evidently I would never make it as an automotive electrical technician. heh

PS> I used the Viper 211 kit found on ebay. Works flawlessly.

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??

I ordered a keyless entry for my '08 sedan to install in a few days when my exams are over. I saved CTScott's outline of the wires which should be a big help.

I decided to go w/ the Viper 211 as I don't need the remote starter just the keyless entry.

I'll be installing it Wednesday and I wanted to check in if there was anything that I should look out for on this install? I have experience with electrical but I just want a heads up if anything comes as a surprise.

The questions I have is: I do not want the car to auto lock when the ignition is turned on. Can I just not connect that wire from the control to the car and everything else should still work fine with the system?

Also, I'd like to avoid having the issue with the keyless entry not working if the car is locked from inside. Is the manual that CTScott posted up to date in terms of the showing the correct wired to splice so that this issue doesn't happen?

Thanks guys, I'll post back with how it all goes.

bump...picking it up tomorrow

[tmontague]

Alright I took some time and sat down and read through the installation manual to get the install ready for tomorrow. since Dan's DIY is no longer available on line (if anyone has it please let me know) I have a few Q's regarding the wiring.

1. Where are the input and output of dome light relay wires located? I'd like my dome light to go on when the car is unlocked so I'm assuming I need to connect both the input and output but it was not labelled in CTScotts well labelled guide.

2. In CTScotts guide at the very bottom for the keyless entry part it shows "transponder key bypass module connections" Do I need to tap into these just for a keyless entry (no remote start or alarm)? My understanding was I only need to connect the Viper Modules yellow wire to ignition so that I could get the locks to unlock when the ignition is off.

3.For the lock and unlock wire I am tapping into (the brown and green ones) on the yaris. What wires do I use from the Viper module? They have 3 unlock and 3 lock wires coming from that module. They are labelled as "lock common output, lock normally closed and lock normally open (input)" same for the unlock wires. What wires from the viper module do I need to use to connect to the yaris lock and unlock wires?

4. Where do I connect the viper blue wire "second unlock output" so that I have progressive unlocking? Does it connect to the unlock wire as well that was labelled in CTScotts guide?

5. Do I need to bother with any of the other wires that go to the ignition such as "unlock 87a normally closed" if all I want is for the ignition to unlock the locks when turned off? Or is just the yellow viper wire connected to 12v ignition adequate enough?

Thanks guys

Hey so I had a question with installing an Avital 3100LX system. Which 12v wires do I use, the 15A or the 25A? Also since my Yaris 2008 has 4 door? Do I need a relay for the lock and unlock? Thank you for your time
