How to tell if my Yaris has Keyless Entry... - Toyota Yaris Forums

ross sez · 10-25-2010, 05:47 AM

When I bought my Yaris from the dealer last month I could have sworn when I test drove the car it had the keyless entry fob on the keychain with the key. When I took delivery of the vehicle they gave me a couple keys that they had just made for it and the sales guy said they couldn't find the original with the key fob on it. Then he wasn't sure that it had it to begin with...

How can I tell if my Yaris already has keyless entry so I can just buy another fob?

The receiver for keyless entry is located within the center console (under the arm rest). You can either pop that area open to look for it, or you can do the below procedure to put the door receiver in "Confirmation Mode". If it responds then you know you have it.

Besides what I mentioned above, checking the VIN against the EPC will show what options it was built with, including keyless entry.

How does one check the VIN against the EPC? What's a EPC?
