Prius (2010-12) :: Unlocking Any Door From Outside The Car With FOB In Pocket?

I have a new to me 2010 Prius. What I'm trying to do (I did it with my 2008 Prius) is to be able to unlock any door from the outside as long as I have my fob in my pocket. I've tried following the directions in the manual but to no avail. I've tried holding lock and unlock on the fob simultaneously for 5 seconds, all doors open shows up on the control panel, but when I approach any door except the drivers door, nothing happens.

Prius (2004-09) :: Key Fob Wouldn't Work When In Pocket

I've got a 2004 Prius and I recently had some body repair done which included having the cloth interior upgraded to leather.

When I picked up my Prius from the shop, the key fob wouldn't work when it was in my pocket. I had to push the unlock key to open the door. Then when I tried to start the car w/ the key in my pocket, it wouldn't start so I had to put the key into the dash to get the car started.

Once I got home, I figured the battery was dead so I replaced it and tried again and got the same results. Then I went around the car testing the passenger door and truck and it's the same thing, it won't unlock w/out pushing the button on the key fob.

Prius (2004-09) :: SKS (key In Pocket) Works For Lock And Unlock But Not Ignition

I just bought a new 2006 prius and have an issue with the FOB (it's pretty beat up from use -- ordered a new housing for it)...

It works great for locking and unlocking the car with the key in pocket, but as soon as I sit down to turn on the car, I get the beep and key icon flashing on the dash and no activity.

Only when I insert the key into the slot will the car turn on. The Key disable button under the steering wheel is not engaged.

Again, it recognizes for locking button and unlocking when I touch the handle, but I have to physically plug it in for the car to start....

So I tried using a faulty cellphone charger in one of my charging ports. I heard a loud click and now my car is not starting. So, the first thing I looked at was the fuse for the start and engine, thinking they may have been blown, but that was not the case.... Where do I go from here?

I have a 2011 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T

Prius (2010-12) :: Key Fob Has Not Been Detected By Car

There have been a couple of incidents where the key fob has not been detected by the car, even though it is in the car. When it did this, I also noted the unlock button on the fob didn't work. It only does it a couple of times then all of a sudden it seems to work. There is no message for a low battery (it's not that old).

Prius (2010-12) :: Got Message Key Detected In Vehicle?

I got this message today, twice as I was pulling out of the driveway but it went away both times. After the 1st I stopped and pulled the key out of my purse. It came back on a 3rd time and right as I was trying to determine if it was significant enough to pullover when the hood flew up and hit the windshield. The hood was closed and there were no other messages.

Prius (Gen 3) :: Need To Pull The Door Handle Otherwise Key Not Detected Appears

Over the past month or so, my 2012 Prius Three is being strange. I always keep my key fob inside my purse. Sometimes I have to pull the door handle a few times before it will unlock. Other times it will say key not detected when I try to start the car. I will have to try a few times before it will start. Or the strangest thing is, sometimes when I pull over before my husband and I get home, and when he gets out of the car (I have NOT turned it off) it will display the message, key not detected.

The thing is, he does not carry a fob with him, the only key is in my purse, which is inside the car with me. I thought maybe it maybe it was the key fob so I swapped out the fob I was using with the 2nd one we have and it is still happening.

Prius (2004-09) :: Triangle Of Death Came On, No Codes Detected

2005 with 123,000 miles. I have owned for a few thousand miles. Car was dealer maintained at every recommended interval. Car runs perfect.

After car sat for a week or so, I drove it and the red triangle popped up along with PROBLEM statement and take to immediately to dealer symbol. Red Triangle and other warnings repeats every once in awhile - will go a day without, and then will come on and off within a couple miles. Car continues to run fine. There are no other check engine lights. I have checked all the fluids and they are fine.

The battery charges fine, and holds the charge overnight. I have a generic code reader and there are no codes. I have read other posts, and there are always problems that seem to come with the Triangle. Gas mileage is fine as well.

Prius (2001-03) :: How Is Brake Fluid Level Detected

I only get a brake warning light when it is below 40F and I take a turn. It then goes off by itself. I suspect the brake fluid level sensor may be going off. But when I looked, I didn't see a 'float' sensor.

So today the cold soaked car showed midway between Max-Min. Ok, top it off and drove to parts store only find it was just over Min. Lesson learned, check AFTER driving.

Prius (2010-12) :: Key Not Detected Message When Try To Start With Single FOB

After last maintenance at dealer where I got my Prius. I get two or three times of "Key not Detected" message per week when I try to start the car. I have to push start button several times for the car to detect key and start up properly. However, I don't have issue to unlock door by placing hand on the sensor and enter driver's seat. Where to start? I thought it was battery issue, but that wouldn't explain why I don't have any issue unlocking the driver door by placing hand on the sensor, which I always do before I push the start button.

Prius (Gen 3) :: Check Engine Lights Up - No Error Code Detected

My car is a Prius Plus 2012.

One day, I decided to go to a mechanic to clean the EGR pipe. Only the pipe, not the whole EGR. It was an extremely simple operation a mechanical one, not electrical etc. Starting from that day, when I go with the car, from time to time, check engine lights up. For a fraction of a second to up to 2 seconds then it disappear.

The car behave itself without a problem. But still the on-off check engine is really annoying.

So a went to the dealer. Put the car on tester.

Result: no code error !

I went to another garage , put another tester on the car, no error..

How can I actually see what the error is if nothing is stocked in the ECU of the car?

Prius (2010-12) :: Key Not Detected Signals - Loose Connection To Battery?

I changed the battery in my key fob recently. Since then the car has randomly given me "key not detected" signals. At these times, the door lock/unlock buttons don't work either.

When it does, I open it and push the battery around, trying to make it connect, close the fob back up, and it works for some apparently random amount of time. So my best guess it that there's a loose connection to the battery.

If so, have you found a cure, such as the right place to wedge in something small to make the connection secure? Anything else?
