Lexus ES 2013+ :: Starts Remotely But Shuts Off When Open Or Unlock Doors With Key Fob

So My 16 ES starts remotely but shuts off every time I open the doors or unlock the doors with the key fob?

So I have to re-start it every time I get in? Whats the point? I can maybe see the heater for winter or ac for summer but my car is garaged.

Prius (2004-09) :: 2008 Without Smart Entry - Failing To Lock Or Open Doors When Button Pressed

All of a sudden, my 2008 prius, basic package without the smart entry system, stopped locking or opening the doors when i pressed the button.

At first i thought it must be a dead battery, so i replaced it with a new one and got the exact same behavior. i checked the old battery and it was still giving off 3 volts as was the new one when i checked that with a volt meter. when i press any of the buttons on the key, a small led light goes on and on the dashboard a picture of a key lights up briefly. the owner's manual does not show the key as a warning light.

Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: Cannot Remotely Lock The Doors After Driving For Thirty Minutes

I replaced my gpr on Friday night and my remote to lock the doors worked just fine. Saturday morning they unlocked just fine as well drove it thirty minutes and went to lock my doors with the remote and it didn't work. So could this just be crazy timing for it to stop working or could it be related?

I have a 2000 f250 4x4 I've tested with all three remotes I have for it and none of them work where would I start to test and see if it is just bad connections or dirty ones?

Prius (Gen 2) :: All Doors Lock When Start Car And Front Doors Unlock When Turn It Off

After going through a car wash my Prius has started locking all doors when I start the car and unlocking driver's and passenger front doors when I turn it off. Kind of wondering how this could happen, but since I like it that way I don't really want to change it back. Is there a way to toggle this and can I change it so that rear doors and hatchback unlock also when I turn the car off?

Golf/GTI VI :: Lock Doors With The Remote While A Door Is Open?

I tried the manual and search here but did not find how to switch this feature on and off. When I bought the car, I could use the remote to lock the doors while a door is open, such as when I am stepping out of the car. Then when the door shuts, it beeps to confirm a lock. This feature went away, and now it won't do anything while a door is open; presumably to keep me from locking my keys in the car. I can't stand this feature, it's like a damn Honda, protecting me from myself! How to switch this back?

Prius (2004-09) :: Remote Won't Lock Or Unlock The Doors

My daughter picked up an 08 Base, option package #1 yesterday. It has 166K miles and checked out okay by me (coolant moving by inverter pump, no signs of water in spare tire well...etc.). The car only had 1 key fob (non-SKS) wit no spare key or fob. The key is uncut but the remote starts and runs the car. The remote will not lock or unlock the doors.

The first thing I did was replace the CR2032 battery with no change. It still operated the car but not the locks. I noticed that the little red light wasn't coming on when pushing the buttons and found the red panic button was stuck. Took care of that and thought all was good until I tried to lock and unlock the doors again. Nope! Light comes on, works in slot to start the car, but not the locks.

Prius (2004-09) :: Key Fob Doesn't Unlock / Lock Doors

I just bought a used 2005 from a small dealership just today.. It does not have SKS (no black buttons on the door handles).. But, the dealer said it had a key problem, so he discounted the price.. He said that the keyfobs can start the car, but can't lock/unlock the doors.. He gave me 2 keyfobs, but I'm not even sure if either of them are the original ones that came with the car.. I think they might both be used keyfobs from other cars..

In other words, I don't have a master keyfob that can unlock the doors yet.. I always have to take out that darn physical key to unlock it every time..
I've looked around lots of threads already, and all it does is confuse me..

I know you can do some weird "chicken dance", but it seems like you already have to have a master keyfob that can unlock the doors, right?.. And I know there are "2 sides" to the keyfob: a "prox" one, and some thing else (I forget)

Prius (2004-09) :: Doors Won't Lock / Unlock Using Button On Interior

Wife just called with a weird one. She said the doors won't lock - using either the key fob or using the door lock/unlock button on the car interior. They will lock, and then immediately unlock. Won't stay locked.

Since the car isn't here, I'm shooting in the dark, but I'm having her check:

Make sure all doors are properly closed/latched. Push a button on the key fob to see if the LED lights up (I changed batteries a year ago).

Couple of searches showed up:

Potential issue with lights on when car is turned off (never had this issue before). Someone mentioned a switch below the dash to right of steering column.

Prius (2004-09) :: Doors Won't Lock / Non-SKS Multiple Keyfob Failure?

The wife just returned from a shopping trip and declared that the "doors won't lock". Sure enough I tested the keyfob and the car will not respond to it. I then took the spare keyfob we keep and it won't respond to that either. I replaced the battery in one keyfob just to be sure but still no response. Car starts fine with both fobs, just the doors will not lock/unlock. 12V battery was replaced less than a year ago and voltages seem fine. What I should look for (remember this a UK spec non-SKS vehicle using the black keyfobs...)

Prius (2004-09) :: Front Doors Not Effectively Holding Position When Open

The little device that hold doors open (so they don’t swing freely) aren’t very effective on my ’09 model. Actually, it's only a problem on the front doors. The rear doors hold position quite well. The front doors have always been a problem and I wonder if is this typical. Is there a fix (other than replacement)?

Prius (Gen 2) :: FOB - Cannot Start The Car Remotely While Sitting In Driver Seat

I have a 2007 Prius IV and recently experienced the following:

a. I can't open door by just pulling handle nor lock all doors by depressing door button. I must use the UNLOCK/LOCK feature on the FOB
b. I can't start the car remotely while sitting in driver's seat. FOB must be inserted in slot to start car.
c. I have strong mini-RED light indication on my FOB which should indicate proper battery power.

Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 - Key Fob Not Working Remotely

This is the backup key fob, as the original key fob was lost. Until recently, it would work to unlock the doors and did not need to be inserted into the dashboard.

Now, the door needs to be unlocked with the mechanical key and the car won't start unless the key is inserted into the dashboard.

I have replaced the battery in the key fob and it blinks red when buttons are pressed, but still won't work remotely.

I have also checked the 12V battery using instructions I found in this forum and it appears to be fully charged.

And, I have checked the button under the steering wheel and it is out which is supposed to be the on position. Just in case, I also tried pushing it in.
