2017 Tacoma and both FOBs no longer lock or unlock truck

Starts fine. In fact using the the Techstream SW it shows they are registered and performs connection test. Granted new to the SW, so maybe Im missing something. Ive tried pulling the ground from the battery for several minutes, no change. Anyone have any idea where to start? The dash says no key identified or something to that affect. Started about 5 days ago with both fobs... after that both dead. Batteries in FOBs are new. Any help to track this down appreciated. Thanks.

 

Old new batteries. Sometimes they have been sitting on the shelf for a long time. Is this keyless start? If so you can touch the key fob to the start button to start it and it acts as a passive rfid instead of active as when the battery is working. At least that would tell if you if they are still working with the system and if its just some bum batteries.

 

maybe someone cloned your FOBs/stole their identity and now they're waiting for the right time to ride off into the sunset

 

Except the panic works. Lock and unlock do not work.

 

Looks like it may be a bad battery....

 

Battery testers (multimeters) are handier than sht. Go get one!

 

Have one... didnt need it though. Battery flat out died and wont charge, probably a dead cell.
