Toyota OE Touchless Keypad entry

My buddy has this on his 2023 3rd gen TRD Pro and it’s super convenient. It mounts just inside the very left edge of the windshield and operates with a touch thru the glass. Found it on eBay but doesn’t show as compatible with 2024+. Has anyone had any luck or tried an install to see if it works? Would be great to be able to lock up w/out carrying a smart key while biking, running, or whatever.

 

Do this test:
Have someone lock the Taco with FOB while you stay inside. Have person walkaway far enough vehicle can't detect FOB. You unlock the Taco in all manners available. (door handle, door lock switch, etc.) Verify alarm does NOT go OFF.

 

These are the wires required for it to work. 4th Gen has them.

 

Excuse my ignorance, what will this tell me?

 

Didn’t you get the thin credit card sized fob/key thing ? I never carry my key fob.

 

Yes, I’ve got it. But I don’t want something to lose when I’m on my mtb or out running. This seems like a great option.

 

"Verify alarm does NOT go OFF."

 

Just had a chance to do this… alarm does not go off when locked inside and unlocking by handle, switch, etc.

 

So I'd say your good to go on the install.

 

Maybe I'm missing something, but you can't leave the key fob in the truck when it's locked can you? I thought the truck would refuse to lock if the key fob is in it?

 

You can disable the fob temporarily and leave it in if you want to, but normally you are correct

 

I didn't get one. Did you have to buy a certain trim level for it or did my dealership rip me off? I bought a TRD sport, guess I went with the TRD povertey edition...

 

My SR5 with cold weather/upgrade packages came with one.

 

It is not supposed to, but I managed to defeat that somehow.

Left my 3G fob in the right rear passenger door handle at the parking lot to Vogelsang in Yosemite as I was changing clothes for the hike. Parking lot is severely angled. Door closed while I backed away from the doorway. I was locked out. Luckily there is an actual police style ranger station quarter mile away.

Still haven't been able to recreate that. Lesson is always know where your key is.

 

Any chance you could help me locate which harnesses these three wires are in the 4th Gen? I do not see any connectors that are similar in size or location when compared to the 3rd gen.

I have the keypad in hand and will install today once I can locate the LOCK, UNLOCK, and IGG signal wires. The power and ground are easy since they intercept from the OBD port.

 

It's part of one of the upgrade packages. Mine lacks either of those and I didn't get a card key either.

Based on what they said at the dealer when I was picking my truck up, they've been having issues with them and you don't actually want one anyway.

 

@caribe makaira is the guy to help… I’m glad you’re taking the plunge and leading the way. I haven’t bought the setup yet but will follow your install. Good luck!

 

No issues with my credit card key. I love it.

 

Thanks! I’ll make sure to post pics of the install once I can make it happen.

 

How’d the install go Jett? Any updates?
