Replacing the beeper for the lock/unlock? I'd like one not like every other car in the lot. I always look around when another car beeps. Is it located in a good (accessible) place like the horns?
View 1 RepliesWhere is it? I can't seem to locate it. It sounds like it's coming from inside the fuse box under the hood.
View 4 RepliesThe battery seems good in key, but I can stand next to car and it will "click" but door wont lock or unlock.
View 3 RepliesI've looked around here and in my manual but can't find the procedure to turn off the "beeps" when I lock and unlock my car via the key.
View 2 Replies2007 Prius here. A few months ago I had a similar problem. Basically when putting my hand on the door sensor, the doors would cycle through unlocking (noise, lights flash etc) without actually unlocking. If I keep pulling the handle after each attempt it seems to go forever.
The front passenger door also did not lock under any circumstance.
Took it into Toyota, they absolutely screwed me I now realize, $900 to replace a door actuator in that passenger door.
Worked fine for a few weeks. Then all of a sudden, problem started again. Just like last time, slowly slowly over the course of 2 months, it got worse and worse until today I could not open the driver side front or rear door at all.
I insert the key, turn it all the way to ignition, car starts, dash is lit up, everything seems to be working. Once I let the key snap back from IGN to anything else, the engine continues to run, but the car acts as if it is off (dash completely dead, wont come out of park).
If I remote start the vehicle using my luxlink (which I've had zero problems with since it's install about 4 years ago), car starts fine, dash lights up, everything is in working order. However, I have to put the key in to unlock the steering wheel, and once I depress the brake, again, car acts as though it's off (no dash/radio/nav, anything electrical, won't come out of park), but the engine continues to run.
Neither key fob will work (yes batteries are good). We use both keys everyday, but I sent my daughter to store and she calls me and says the key won't open the door using the Fob or manually. I bring her my key and I can't get in the car either. When you press any button on either Fob absolutely nothing happens except the lil red light on the Fob blinks.
When using the key manually turning to the left does nothing, turning to the right causes a click that you can hear and feel but the door is still locked. Nothing has changed. The only thing different that she did was when she got out she hit the lock button on the door instead of using the Fob once she was out. ( she's not use to using Fob because her 93 SC400 Fobs don't work). So what happened here, what broke? Or did somehow she activate some Anti-Theft system or something? What do I need to do?
Weird situation. Both remotes seem to be acting up. Especially in the mornings, they will not chime or unlock the doors. The red light flashes on the remote, but nothing happens. I open the door via the key blade insertion into door hole.
Sometimes if I slam the door, it starts working again. Not sure if just coincidence or not.
I changed the remote batteries. But even still, seems odd that it would be the remotes if both are doing the same thing.

View 1 RepliesReviving my car after long months of long winter storage and I cannot get the door unlocked. I know the battery is dead so the remote won't work, but I cannot even unlock the door with the key, twisting it back and forth and nothing happens. I am just trying to get under the hood so i can jump the car, but no way to unlock the door. It is a 2002 SC430 , is the key supposed to work ? Or does the car need battery for the key to twist and unlock the door?
View 9 RepliesI have a 2008 ES, Recently I've not been able to lock and unlock my car using my hand. this usually occurs after I've gotten to work (30 mins from home) and when I'm returning back to the car after work (12 hours later). I've had the batteries changed in the key fob hoping this would solve the problem, but it hasn't.
View 4 RepliesMy Lexus RX 350 has a very low beep when I lock and unlock my doors. It was much louder before. I can only tell it's locker by the lights and not the sound
View 7 RepliesWhen I put the car in reverse the doors lock. When I put the car in park the doors don't unlock, but I've never noticed because when I grab my door handle it also unlocks my door...however when my +1 grabs her handle it doesn't unlock her door. Is that normal?
I'm assuming I can change the setting when the car is put in park to automatically unlock the doors.
I recently noticed the cover for my driver-side door lock seemed was loose and the door lock would move around a bit. Today, to my utter shock, I noticed the door lock cover was missing and it looks like I cannot see the door lock cylinder, worried that it is missing too!
Is it possible for the door lock cylinder to easily fall out of the door if the cover was loose?
I am hoping that the door lock cylinder is somehow physically connected to the door and wouldn't just fall out, perhaps it fell inside the door and I cannot see it. I haven't had a professional look at it yet, but if I am missing the door lock cylinder then I would need to purchase a new lock cylinder and have it cut to match my keys (huge spend, even with Sewell).
The images show what I am referring to, the dark image is an attempt to take a picture of the inside of the hole. The last image is a drawing of the door frame from Sewell with part numbers. Is there a chance the door lock cylinder is somewhere inside the door panel?

2008 LS... It's been maybe 12 hours since I drove it last. I've had dead batteries before but the lights still worked dimly and there were clicks when I tried to start... there was at least SOME level of life in the car... but now I get it... NOTHING.... doors won't lock or unlock... not one light comes on...
View 14 RepliesWhat is the range on your remote to lock or unlock your truck?
Mine is currently 30 +/- feet I recently replaced the remote batteries and saw no improvement.
On my Toyota it is 200 +/- feet easily..
I am just trying to determine if a trip to the dealer is needed.
I have a 2006 Lexus GS 300 and I have had the car for almost two years now. I have noticed that when I use my keyless entry button to unlock and lock the car, its not as loud as it was in the past. My key fobs all have new batteries in them (2 kays for the car). Could this mean that I need a battery soon? When I first got the car, the "beep beep" noise from when you lock and unlock the car was louder, now you can barely hear it.
