    Hi

    I have a question about my smart key on my '09 prius. Okay, If I put my hand in passenger or hatchback it unlocks all doors. If I put my hand in driver door, it only unlocks driver door. I would like if I put my hand in driver door to unlock ALL doors. Is this possible, I looked through my manual and tried the suggestion, but it didn't work. Am I do something wrong? Help! TIA!

    by the way, the reason the drivers door only opens the drivers door and why pressing unlock on the keyfob once only opens the drivers door is a safety feature for those living or working in non safe neighborhoods.

    that way they can get into the drivers door confident that someone hiding on the other side of the car can't jump into the passenger side. Remember those volvo commercials from last year that says their remote keyfob will alert you if it senses a person hiding near your vehicle??

    if you live AND work in a safe place you can undo the sks factory setting and toggle to the other setting which opens all 5 doors when grasping the drivers door. (link to the instructions are in the previous post)

    if chuck norris had a prius which setting would he use?? i mean on the one hand he would want all the doors to open in the hopes that some assailant would jump in so he could have the legal excuse to kick the snot out of someone. But on the other hand, there's not enough room in a prius to perform a CNRHK (Chuck Norris Round House Kick)
