    No go there either with the other fob, it acts just like the first one did.

    Thanks for sticking with me, I have no idea what the trouble is.

    Cheers!

    My switch to just clicking the fob once to get all doors to unlock came because of the settings screen on the infotainment center.

    Take it to the closest dealer, I'm sure they can fix it for you:).

    I misread or didn't understand what the OP was asking.

    I read it as if he/she wanted all 4 doors to unlock using the SKS.

    Now today I find that if I touch my driver's door handle it unlocks the passenger side too! So I guess it did work for me after all. Still have to push the button on the SKS tho' to unlock all 4 doors but touching the handle now unlocks passenger door as well.

    Whew!

    Thanks to all

    Glad u got at least 2 doors to unlock/lock but I didn't even know that was an option as I thought it was 1 door(drivers side) or 5 (all 4 doors plus the rear hatch). Did u check the other doors just to make sure:) ?

    Yes they all do so I am a happy camper now much easier than the 2 step process!

    Thanks to all :D

    You just need to hold down lock and either the unlock or panic buttons, not all three.

    On my v, there are two separate 'unlock All' procedures:
    As stated in the video there is a Button Press to make the Fob Unlock all on the first push, rather than on the second push.

    There is also a 'grab the door handle and it unlocks all setting' that is in the multi function display and/or a dealer setting.

    [Edit: And while I was typing Mendel gave the correct info for a Gen 3]

    On our III with navigation, you have to first unlock the doors before the hatch will open using the rubber button to release the hatch.

    There is a thread on these forums on adding SKS to the hatch and or passenger doors. It involves buying parts and wiring though.

    To clarify, do you hold the panic and unlock for 5 seconds and then press the lock button or do you simply press and hold all 3 simultaneously for 5 seconds?

    I can't get it to work on our 2011 either, the 4 doors thingey shows up but then when I try to unlock the doors it only unlocks the drivers door. Tried it 3x. I was, however, able to program the drivers door to unlock all the doors.

    I think our Prius may be "special".....the vent system drives me crazy, I still can't figure out how to work it.

    What this trick does is allow you to unlock all doors by gripping the drivers's door handle, doesn't affect how the remote itself works.

    Is there a way to get the electronic key to open all the doors? With just one push?

    No, you have to push the unlock button twice.
