    In addition to the Tacoma and Corolla, we have a 2020 Sienna LE V6 van. Some years of the Tacoma may have the same issue I'm facing. Both factory remotes quit working. Replaced batteries. No change. Disconnect neg cable, put back on. No change. Take neg and pos battery cable off, run jumper wire between the two cables, let sit 10 minutes, hook battery back up and the remotes both work fine... for a little bit. Could be a day, could be hours. Then they don't work again. Go through the same procedure and they'll work again. Any ideas what's going on? Remotes look like one shown in post.
