Why does my Prius door opener not work?
I have a 2008 toyota prius and suddenly two days ago the key FOBs don’t work to open the door. i tried the one FOB that hasn’t been used since forever and has plenty of power, so I don’t think it’s the battery in the remote, but i thought I saw a similar thread in here that I may need to replace the 12 v battery?

It’s made infuriating when you discover that your trunk lid doesn’t open because that little black button that pops it up is battery operated.

You can then push the start button and the vehicle will start and run.

You can replace the battery inside your fob yourself.

Check the 12V battery with a voltmeter at the jump point under the hood. With the car completely OFF it should read from 12.4V to 12.7 V. If it’s less than 12.0V the battery is near death. If you don’t have a voltmeter use the self-test procedure given here:
Why is my door opener remote not working?
Two black buttons under the sterring column you will probably have to get on you hands and knees to see them easily.

How do you turn off the remote lock on a Toyota?
With the car off, push it in, then out. Turn the key on, then turn it off. Press the button in and out again three times (six pushes). You’ll hear a beep. If you hear two beeps, that’s it toggling back off again, so you’re aiming for just one. Hope this helps!
How do I get my Toyota remote to chirp?
My question is how do I get my remote that came with the car to chirp that the doors are closed and opened when I click the buttons. The only thing that happens is the lights flash when I click the lock or unlock button. Can this be done on a Corolla? I know the Camry and Highlander have the chirp. Thanks for your feedback.
