If your keyless entry remote has never worked it either needs to be programmed to the vehicle or it is the incorrect remote part number for they vehicle. First step is to call your local dealership, ask for service, then verify your vehicle came equipped with the keyless entry option and verify the key fob part number. When calling the dealer have your vin# handy, they will need that. Once you have verified your vehicle has keyless entry option and you have the correct keyless entry remote part number then find a locksmith to program the remote to your vehicle. We suggest a locksmith because they are usually more affordable than the dealer and they come to you.

If your keyless entry remote has worked before and it just stopped working, here are a few tips to try to get it working again:

1) Change the battery
Batteries don't last forever, you'll be surprised how often it's just a dead battery! Search our YouTube channel on how to change a key fob battery for your specific year, make, and model!

2) Wipe the board
The board inside your remote can get a lot more filthy than you think! When the board is dirty it can prohibit the contact to the circuit board when you push down on the button. Simply wiping the circuit board off can make your key fob like new again!

3) Get it checked
Go to your local hardware store like AutoZone or Oreilly's. They usually have a RF frequency tester. This little gadget will let you know if your key fob is sending a signal. If it is, you may need to reprogram your key fob to your vehicle

4) The old car battery reset trick
I know this sounds absurd, but it works sometimes and is worth trying. If you exhausted all of the options above, disconnect both terminals on your car battery for 10 minutes. Then reconnect them and try your key fob. This has worked for many people and I have no idea why. If you do, please comment below to explain.

5) New fob!
It might be time for a new key fob! No need to dread over the expensive costs of a new key fob, at Keyless Entry Remote Fob Inc., you can get a refurbished one for a very affordable price! You won't even be able to tell the difference. Just search your vehicle make, model, and year to purchase a key fob or give us a call at 402-671-5100.

They may need to recode your pad see dealer

    Locksmiths can 1. Test the existing Fob Battery and Functionality and 2. Reprogram if the vehicle has had other diagnostic work that deprogrammed all remotes. and 3 Supply and add a NEW additional remote.

    Having TWO remotes allows you do easily do part of the diagnostics.

    But first, put a meter on the battery of existing remote. If under 3.16V, replace.

    Your vehicle has OBP, meaning you can follow the factory steps PRECISDELY, and possibly resolve the issue, providing the remote and the battery are good.

    Procedure is in your owner's manual. No devices or tools are needed.

2007 Yaris Sedan key will not turn in either door. It works in the trunk door lock and ignition. Am I missing something simple? Have always used the remote entry but recently found it necessary to use...

The door locks may require lubrication; they are likely sticking as they haven't been physically turned with a key for a while. Spray a little WD-40 in there.

Can you add keyless entry to 2008 toyota yaris

I went to a business that installs keyless entry, alarms, and stereo's and they told me for about $250 they could add a a keyless entry with alarm to our 2008 Yaris. Our Yaris has automatic locks not manual locks...so that might be the deciding factor.
