Hey guys, I want my prius to unlock all 4 doors when I put my hand to the drivers side door. Is there a way to do this? My wife's Lexus had the option to do this so we had the dealer change it. Also, is there a way to add the keyless entry to the other doors? I hate having to get the key fob out to open the trunk. Lol. U am used to my wife's Lexus. Thanks!! Bzyrice
Sitting in the car, shut off, press-and-hold both the lock and unlock buttons on the fob. After a few seconds there'll be a beep or two, and the dash will display a pic of the car, with either one door, or all doors, open. Each time you do the exercise it switches.
I added the keyless entry feature to my car that only came with keyless entry on the driver's door and did a write up of the process here... http://priuschat.com/forums/gen-iii...-passenger-door-1-door-sks-gen-iii-prius.html It takes about $300 for the hardware and a few hours of time to do. I noticed that you're in West Palm... I'm in Orlando, so if you feel like taking a drive north sometime I'd be happy to help you install the parts in your car.
Wow!! thanks!! That literally took less then aminute to do! One more thing to like about the car!! Woohoo!! Ooh awesome man! Great Tutorial! This will be a mod saved for later since there are other things I want to do first. But, I will let you know when the time comes!! Thanks!
I too was spoiled by my 2006 Prius where all keyless entries worked all three doors. I was shocked when my 2011 Prius II only worked the driver door. Somewhat defeats the purpose of never having to take the fob out of the pocket.
I'll walk to the drivers door, open it and press the unlock button on the door before taking the fob out of my pocket. Agreed it would have been nice to have it unlock at the hatch and passenger side.
Thanks for the info. It worked for me with the handle unlock, is it supposed to work with the remote ?
I will be doing the mod bretts talks about once I have time.. it is soooo convenient not to ever have to pull out your key.. I am willing to pay 300 and a few hours of work to do it lol ..
If you push the unlock button on the remote twice in a row it will unlock all the doors. As far as I know there's no way to make the first push unlock all the doors.
Why are there so many threads on this subject? People need to learn if they have a question on a subject, they need to click on the search button before they ask.
Bryce, thanks for this page. This is awesome....I was spoiled also with opening all doors with touching the car. I mean if I can leave the key in my pocket to drive, then why do I have to take it out to lock them. I LOVE THIS. I might do this in the next few weeks. Im in tampa, but am in south floirda often, I still have my 954 number lol
Yah hit me up next time you are in town.. Maybe we could start a south florida meet haha.. This literally takes 1 minute to do.. painless .. go do it now! haha
awesome.. I may need to do this, but i think mine does this already, since I reprogrammed it.. let me go check..
I see this is for the GenIII 2010 models...I have a 2005 and I tried the same approach--holding both unlock and lock at same time, but nothing happens. Is this possible on GenII '05 model? Or is there a difference method? Currently, only one door unlocks when I get close to handle--I'd really like all 4 to
Was confused by the OP original question, since I thought the 3-door option actually did 5 doors. So I opened the car with a touch of the driver door, went away and left the fob behind, returned to find all 5 locks unlocked. Likewise, with the fob on me, one touch of the driver door locks all 5 locks. Verified. Maybe that's an option among many I had the dealer fix back in November, 2009. Check the back of the manual for all the dealer-settable options. Is this something that got screwed up in 2011 over 2010?
