Greetings. I have a 2002 sr5 4runner. A few months ago my key fob stop working. Door locks will not lock or unlock. there is no 'beep' sound when pressing the button.
when investigating the problem I notice if I have the hatch open and I press lock button on the FOB the 'beep' sound would actuate with a long beep. This long beep usually occurs if a door is open and trying to lock using the fob. But when I close the hatch the key fob would again not work and no sound. I know it's not the battery on the fob since the key fob can open the back window and the long beep would actuate when the hatch is open. Further I notice my rear window wiper no longer works and the tail gate window button in the front dashboard no longer works. In addition I do not think my rear defroster turns on. I opened the inside panel of the hatch to see if any of the connectors are loose but all were connected.
Has anyone ever experience this problem? I would think it's a relay somewhere but I can't locate it. Appreciate any advice.
