Prius (Gen 3) :: Remote Controls AC Equipped Button Don't Work


Feb 2, 2016

Page 285 of the 2010 Prius Owner Manual states:

"Remote Air Conditioning System" =if equipped

The Remote Air Conditioning System uses electrical energy stored in the hybrid battery (traction battery) and allows the air conditioning to be operated by remote control. My remote controls have this button, but nothing happens when I press them for a couple seconds.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: How Does A/C Button On Remote Work In Winter

It gets really cold in the winter (-30 C is common). Now I'm wondering how does the A/C button on the remote work? Is it literally just for remote air conditioning or can it also be used in freezing temperatures to remotely start the car to warm it up?

Normally I don't warm up my car but when it's been sitting outside in -20C or colder I sometimes let it run a few minutes just to clear the windshield before I drive.

If the A/C button doesn't work the heat also in the freezing cold, will this kit for the regular Prius work?

Prius (Gen 2) :: Some Controls On Steering Wheel Not Working - Climate Remote Ctrl Switch Failure

Some of my controls on the steering wheel are not working. Is that a simple fuse swap or a take it to the dealer type fix? I tried to check on the fuse thing, but was unable to find anything related to the steering wheel.

Prius (Gen 3) :: Using Remote AC Button To Warm Up The Vehicle?

this is my third hybrid (Camry hybrid and RX 400).

I have a '11 Prius IV with solar panel and remote AC button on my fob. Not much good information on this in the manual. I'd like to use the remote AC button (assuming a charged battery) to begin the interior warmup and defrost process on cold mornings.

However, it seems that when I hold the remote button on the fob as instructed in the guide, it turns everything on in the car for a brief moment (5 seconds or less) as opposed to a full 3 minutes as the manual describes. Again, the battery is at least 3/4 to a full charge and the process begins when I hold down remote start, but it just turns everything of after a brief period.

Prius (Gen 2) :: Unlock All Doors With Single Remote Button Switch

I happened to read the following passage on page 37 of the owners manual discussing usage of the wireless remote control:

To Unlock: Push the unlock switch once to unlock the driver's door alone. Pushing the switch twice within 3 seconds unlocks all the doors simultaneously ... This double switch operation to unlock all the side doors and back door can be changed to a single switch operation. For details, contact your Toyota dealer.Click to expand...

(Note that this is different than the "smart unlocking" operations discussed on page 32.)

I'm interested in having all the doors unlock with just a single press of the remote unlock button. How to achieve this setting?

Prius (2010-12) :: How To Defeat Panic Button On Smart Key Remote

Any way to defeat the stupid panic button on the remote? In the past I have poured glue into them, Popped the red thing out, etc , but this is a lease and I might well turn it in in a few years and do not want to physically modify the smart key, but twice in the last week it has falsely triggered by getting pressed by the other keys on my keychain as I sat in the house. This must be a common problem, since I had to defeat the same button on 2 other cars I had. I am wondering if there is a software fix to have the receiver in the car ignore the panic mode.

Prius (2010-12) :: Remote Starter Won't Work

I had an original Toyota remote starter installed when I bought my 2010 Prius. The dealer informed me at that time that the range was about 90 feet and that I be better with a jobber remote starter... I did stick with the Toyota because I didnt want another remote transmitter key with my keyfob and that the range was not a problem for me...

And winter came and the remote starter was working fine except that on one pretty cold winter morning it did not...and the next morning. It took a while for the dealer to find the problem...

Prius (2010-12) :: Remote Won't Work Anymore To Start The Car - Can't Locate Key

I have my 2011 and all of a sudden my car stopped being able to sense it in the car or outside the car. The lock and unlock function still works which is puzzling, and when I tapped it to the power button in effort to start the car, the car still does not start and says it can't locate the key. I dropped a 85lb weight on it the other week at the gym but it appears there wasn't any damage when I took the key apart, and it was working fine up till now. The spare works fine, but I'm just hoping I don't have to buy another key...

Also noticed this is the same part number, and since i only need the new circuit board I'm assuming, I wonder if its the same size as the prius one...

Prius (Gen 2) :: Power Button Didn't Work For A While - CEL On With Code P0420

The power button didn't work for a while: For about two hours, the power button (and other stuff) on my 2007 Prius didn't work. But, after a couple of hours, the button worked again and I was able to power down my car (this after many, many pushes both soft and hard). I've now turned it on and off a few times and the car seems to be OK and it's behaving as if it's smiling at me and saying, "What?"

My questions: Does this happen a "lot"? Would the car have turned off if I turned off the smart function (as described on page 34 of the manual)? Is this issue as serious as it seems? Should I dump the car?

This is the first time in 138K miles that the below issues have manifested separately or together.

Other issues that happened at the same time (this morning when the car didn't turn off) were that the:

Instrument cluster was completely dark except for the check engine light (the dark instrument cluster was what first tipped me off that something was wrong)

Backup camera didn't turn on when I shifted into reverse gear

Phone didn't automatically go to speed dial when I was in motion

Fifth door unlock didn't work; the four doors locked/unlocked using the lock/unlock button on the door, but the hatchback didn't unlock.

A day or so ago, the check engine light came on and is throwing a "P0420" code (I posted about this separately yesterday).

By the way, I found out that if you hold down the power button for a while, the car goes into a different state of being where the ICE isn't running and the battery shows as completely empty.

Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Voice Recognition Button Won't Work

I have a 2012 Prius III and from the time I bought the car I have been having ongoing multimedia system and voice activation problems. I have taken it into the dealer numerous times, and they often say they were unable to duplicate the problems (so I started recording the issues with my iphone!). The third time I took it in with the videos in hand, they agreed to replace the multimedia unit...unfortunately, the problems persisted. They are outlined below.

1. Voice Recognition button doesn't work about 50% of the time. When pressed, it displays "Voice Recognition Not Available"

2. When plugging in my iPod, the multimedia system will often reboot

3. The touch screen buttons sometimes do not work (may 25% of the time, and only some buttons, not all of them, and they are different every time)

4. When my iPod is plugged in and I navigate to the playlist, the wrong songs will be in the playlist.

5. When plugging in my ipod, the screen will just load and load and load....forever...until I unplug it and plug it back in from the center console plug (not from the iphone side).

Turning my car off, then back on often resolves the problems.

Prius (2010-12) :: 2014 - Remote Start Will Not Work / Light Flashes

3 weeks ago, I purchased a 2014 Prius model 4 and had a remote starter installed at the dealer. So far, the car has been at the dealer 3 times and they cannot figure out why the remote start will not work. When you press the lock button twice then the 3rd time for 3 seconds, the lights flash and you can watch as the dash lights begin to come on, then everything shuts down. The dealer contacted Toyota because this is all a warranty issue and was instructed to reprogram the computer which they did. After doing so they received an error code that a door, hood or trunk was open, but none were. They checked all the door, hood and trunk latch electronics and all were fine. Personally, I feel I must have received a faulty remote starter, but Toyota so far seems unwilling to replace it.

Prius V :: Radio On Button Doesn't Work On Cold Winter Mornings

Here's an odd one. On our mildly cold winter mornings ~12 degC the radio on button doesn't work. This is regardless of the power status the night prior. What's even weirder if that if climate control is off and you turn it on the radio button is fixed. Earth leak, cold temp resistance, 12V battery?

Prius (2004-09) :: Unlock Button Stuck - Will SKS Work With Dead FOB Battery?

Yesterday when I pulled in my garage, my 2007 Prius starting locking over and over by itself- it was freaking me out.

In doing some internet research and on here, I realized that my unlock key was “stuck†and could not be pushed in, and I assume this is what was causing the automatic unlocking. I have played around with it, but so far I have not been able to open it up or pop it back in place as some have been able to do.

A couple of questions:

I think this has caused the battery to die on my FOB, because none of the buttons work now, and the red light doesn't flash when a button is pushed. But, the smart key system still works, the doors unlock when I touch the handle, and I can drive the car. Will that continue to work with a dead battery in the key FOB??

What bugs me about this is I NEVER use the buttons on the FOB- always use the smart entry, etc, so I know I didn't do anything to cause the unlock button to stop working...
