Bumper Skid Plate Protector Guard For TOYOTA 4RUNNER 2010-2024 FJ Cruiser 2010-2014 Lexus GX 460

That's the interesting part, both batteries that didn't work are fresh Duracell batteries out of the same package and the two that work are the one that came with the new key from E-Bay and some generic battery out of a Tractor Supply bulk lot blister pack. So probably the two cheapest...

I have a fix... doesn't make sense but it works. My two key fobs had new Duracell CR2016 batteries placed in the keys and both appeared as dead. So I set an appointment with Toyota and purchased a new key online just in case my main key was worn out (12 years old and used daily). If they were...

Thanks, no third row seats or sliding tray. The receiver came in today and I was able to take the cover off and look at the circuit board... it looks good, so we'll see. Do you know if I have to reprogram the key (open door, put key in ignition 3x, etc...) or should this be a plug and play thing?

That's what I'm doing now, the key will work as a old fashioned key in the locks. That last comment reminds me of a short video from a mechanic I saw last week... "Why does a tail light costs $1100?". A friend is having his 2022 Limited windshield replaced this week... $1700, it's $400 to have...

Thank you. I get no response anywhere around the vehicle. The receiver is between the rear driver's side door and gas door. Even there, or with the key inside the access door inside the cargo area it does nothing. I did get it to unlock once over the weekend... first time in about a month...

2014 4Runner Trail Edition The keyless entry started working intermittently for quite a while and now has stopped working entirely. Replaced the battery in the key, no change. Disconnected the battery, no change. Checked for a bad fuse, checked all fuses, no change. Scan tool shows no codes...

The Amazon kit I bought had 50 blue and 50 orange clips. I replaced all of them.

Fixed, not too bad just not something fun about yanking hard, and I mean hard, on a piece of 10 year old plastic. Ordered the clips off of Amazon, they fit perfect and only the orange clip had a little slop in it which was taken up with one of the foam washers. Amazon Clip Link Easiest...

Thanks, that's what I was guessing. Clips will be here tomorrow so I guess I'll see how they fit. If loose I guess I'll just buy them from Toyota. The truck is 10 years old with 68,000 miles so I'm due to put a few dollars into it.

Yeah, clips are on order from Amazon... they sell them in bags of 100 for what 3-4 clips from Toyota would cost. After looking at the door earlier it broke off three clips at the bottom. What's the best way to get the trim piece off... just grab and pull outward or is it easier to use a...

Well it took me 10 years to find it, I closed the rear driver's side door on my 2014 with a moving blanket partially in the door jam (it slid down off the seat) and it popped two of the clips holding the wheel opening molding. I saw it later and couldn't figure out how the clips broke and then...

A friend of mine with decades in the auto parts business says that the batteries NAPA sells are the best on the market. He works for a competitor and buys NAPA batteries for his vehicles.

This got me thinking, I have a 2014 Trail Edition, I don't know if I've touched any of those knobs since I got the truck home. I think I put it in crawl mode once just to see what would happen, it sounded like it was tearing the transmission apart with the ratcheting action. I know I've only...
