Nice 1, addition to knowledge database or gold?

i remember something like this was posted a while ago - it didnt work, but u never know, be surprised if it does
ColinBarber
That is the correct procedure and does work on most 98-03 models. There is also another option to see how many keys are currently stored.

IT WORKS ! I USED IT TONIGHT AS I HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY SPARE KEY . ACCORDING TO MY SOURCE ITS ALL IS200 FROM 99 TO PRESENT DAY .

Is there anyway you can program it to automatically arm the deadlocks - you know, instead of having to press "lock" twice ? It would be great if you could - I guess I'm answering my own question here, you probably can't because of the health & safety aspect of locking somebody in accidentally as the deadlocks will not allow you to open the car from the inside - I think?

When you press the lock twice, all it does is turn off the internal movement sensors and has nothing to do with the deadlocks at all (I think) which should all ready be armed on the first press
ColinBarber
It depends on the age of the car. The early ones deadlocked all the time on the first press. Then it has changed (in 2001?) to a second press within 10 seconds to deadlock. Pressing after that turns off the interior sensors.

I don't believe you can make the newer cars deadlock on a single press.
SHAHZ
I didnt know that the early models had dead locks B) -- so Colin on my 2000 IS pressing the button a second time will disarm the internal sensors (ie when someone is left in the car?? :question:
Lexus Jim
It should tell you in the manual

I thought the way to disarm the interior sensors was to lock and unlock the doors 5 times, using the switch on the driver's door :huh:

Hope it isn't the other way cos I always simply hit the lock button on the remote 3 or 4 times to make sure that it does it all without me having to stand there and listen carefully to hear the deadlocks go :blink:
squarehead
I've just checked in my manual (2002 model) and it states that to double lock the doors, press the lock button twice. It warns about making sure nobody is inside as they won't be able to get out. Not sure about the sensors being disarmed though!

Why do they change these things. To be honest I find it a real pain double locking !!!

The other thing I noticed was when you press the lock key once the indicators flash, when you press it again they don't flash and the locking noise is different - if you know what I mean ?!?!!

Yes, you should get 5 flashes when the interior sensors are disarmed.
