Key Fob

Just was wondering what powers the Key Fob ? Is there a chance it could leave you dead in the water ??

 

Probably one of those tiny little 3V coin batteries.

 

CR2032 according to the manual.

 

So always keep the key on your person!!!!

 

typical coin battery. good thing is if the battery completely dies within the fob, you can still start the vehicle if you physically touch the fob to the start button unlike some PTS system that I have seen where you cant even do that.

 

Thanks for the Replies ,That's one ?? I never ask when I ordered my Tacoma

 

What happens if you get out of the car with the key fob and the engine is running? Does it beep or give you some warning? My wife has a Volvo and it beeps in the most annoying way you would never drive away from the key. I had a VW and left my key one time and I didn't even realize until I had turned off the car. Not fun...

 

it will beep for 3-5 times every time a door is opened while running and the fob it not near the PTS button (meaning on a person sitting in the drivers seat).

this happens on my 14 4Runner LE with the PTS.

 

"In the event the engine still cannot be started contact your Toyota dealer"

More of a reason to buy the M/T, cause no PTS system.
