OMG man, I finally got my 2002 Sequoia to work with your 4runner video. I’ve tried this so many times reading from the owners manual until I watched your video and realized you had to go exactly five seconds or it won’t work. Thanks!

Helped me out big time. Simplified my life backing out of garage to pick up family waiting on driveway. Did this on a 2006 Solara worked great .. Thanks...

You saved me from a big headache. My mistake was exactly what you pointed out - depressing the unlock button longer than 5 seconds. And I just couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong until I saw your video.

Thanks! I thought mine was just broken or something. I now have renewed confidence and will try again!

OMG thank you! The trick is it HAS to be EXACTLY 5 seconds (like, within ± 500ms) or it doesn't work. I was following the manual and it doesn't say this. If you hold it for 4 or 6 seconds it won't work.

Thank you for breaking it down! EXACTLY 5 seconds helped lol

Dude. Thx a ton. For the life of me I couldn't figure this out with the manual. This worked for my 2018 4runner.

I love my 4 runner but utterly despise that auto door lock. Thanks so much for this video, you saved my vehicle from another kick in the tire! ❤️

thanks man. you saved me heaps of time trying to figure this out! the five second tip was a huge help.

Wish there was a third option: never lock unless I choose to lock!

So good! I have a 2007 Lexus GX470 and I had the same experience and this worked perfect. I only have one key so it’s important to me that it unlocks when I put the vehicle in park. Thank you for the tip!

Thanks just did it on my 4runner and it worked I’d recommend using the stopwatch feature on iPhone it counts better then I do.

Omg it worked!😲 I kept messing up on my 5 seconds so I watched the video again and did everything along with the video and it worked on the first try!😁Thank you so much! 😀😀😀

Great video. I have a 2003 v8 4runner and all your videos really help me figure my way around my car. Please do more videos like this

Thanks for the video. I have 2009 Toyota Avensis European model and it worked. All the best !

You’re video was the only one on KZread that helped me do this. Smh the timing really helped I did it the same time with you.

Youre the man for putting this video up. Saved me 10minutes looking it up myself.

Thanks for giving me this shortcut. Makes a lot more sense than sifting thru vague, confusing, instructions I’m the manual. My issue is having the doors auto lock when I’m out of the vehicle which is incredibly annoying when your going in and out while loading. I don’t have access to my vehicle at the moment but I can’t wait to give your instructions a try! Got a good laugh at your cutaway to the cheering cheering crowd😂👏🏽

Thank you so much I have been scared for so long. Finally I feel safe

The most useful video I have seen on this issue! 👍

Man i love this. Doors all not unlocking when you turn off the car was about as annoying as it gets. Now, my other annoyance is the damn key fob. For some reason I inadvertently hit the buttons all the time. Never had the issue with any other brand of vehicle. Looking for a replacement fob!!!

Close all doors and switch the ignition to the “ON” position. Do not start the engine. Do one of the following depending on how you want the auto lock system to function: To make the doors automatically lock when shifting, shift the gear to “P” (you’re probably on “P” already), then press and hold button “Lock” button on the door. To make the doors automatically unlock when shifting, shift the gear to “P“, then press and hold the “Unlock” button on the door. To make the doors automatically lock when the vehicle reaches 12mph, shift the gear to “N“, then press and hold the “Lock” button on the door. To make the doors automatically unlock when the driver’s door is opened, shift the gear to “N“, then press and hold “Unlock” button on the door. To disable any of the door lock settings, simply repeat the procedure.

Works on my '03 Sequoia. Apparently it has a 3rd setting for the door locks. It would lock when I shift out of park and just stay locked. Very annoying having to go back to the drivers door and hit the unlock button every time to open the rear hatch or any other door, even though I hadn't locked it myself. I did this process and it switched to locking when shifting out of park and unlocking when shifting back into park. I didn't continued toggling it to see what the other settings would do because it's late and that's what I wanted. Thanks for posting!!

Thanks for this video! My 4Runner was set to only unlock front doors when I put it in park and it was driving and my wife crazy! Could you do a video on how to turn off the unlock/lock chime when you use your fob? Can’t seem to find a video on this for 4th gen. The chime is so annoying!

Great video.May i ask how to set press one time to unlock all doors?

Thanks SO MUCH!! This also worked on a 2008 Lexus RX350. Kinda a glorified Toyota anyway!! The KEY as you mentioned is the 5 seconds.

Can you make a video on how to mute the locking/unlocking beeps? I’m thinking about removing the piezo.

Worked on a 2015 4Runner as well. Had to be 5 seconds for sure.

Does anyone know how to disable the lock and unlock feature when using the keyhole on the tailgate to roll up the window? I don't want the truck to lock when I roll the window up.

The only 2 4runners I have that auto lock when you shift is my 2007 4runner sport and my 1997 limited none of my other 3rd gens do it my 2000 sr5 4x4 my 2000 limited 4x4 my 1999 limited 4x4 or my 2001 limited 4x4 it's very funny how that feature was put on limited 97 but it's rare to see in on any other limited 3rd gen there isn't many 4th gens with it other then limited and sport

can u tell me how to do it when u shift out of PARK

It should lock when you start the car immediately. That is the safest option. So people can’t jump in and assault you In the parking lot

Is actually after 4 seconds of switch being ON , then 5 seconds on the unlock switch. That’s how it worked for me after trying the ten second rule 😞
