Key fob question on 2020+ 4Rs
From what I've read online on some different toyotas if the key fob battery is 100% dead you can still use the little physical key in the fob to unlock the door and if you hold the dead key fob on the push to start button the car is still able to recognize it and start, I think that's a good feature.

Does anyone know if these 2020+ 4Rs also have the ability to start off a dead fob?

I know in Mercedes you can pop off the push to start button and physically insert the key. Can you do that with 4r's too?

I tried to use fob without battery on my 2022. As soon as I turned physical key in the lock alarm went off , but it stopped when I put the fob against start button and started the truck. So it starts just fine but alarm is embarrassing.

Kinda a different problem but I need 15 posts before I can ask elsewhere

How can I lock the doors if another door is open, this is annoying because I want to press the fob and walk away when Im waiting for kids to get all the shit outta the back.

Thanks
