Adding keyless entry to a 2006 CE with factory power locks
Hi All,
My wife & I have a 2006 Corolla CE that has factory installed power door locks and power windows. I had the car at the dealer a few weeks ago for a CEL (ECM replacement) and inquired about adding keyless entry.
The service writer said he had to check the car first to see if it could be programmed, which he did by starting the car and putting it into gear. His statement was that if the doors locked when the car was put into gear (which they did), that it was ready to go.
So I found a used keyless remote that, according to the description, matches this car. I followed the programming steps that I found by searching these forums (see link below), but I can't get the car into programming mode. I did another search on the forum about programming, but I couldn't find a posting where someone already had factory power locks and was trying to add keyless (they were adding power locks and keyless).
Is there another step that needs to be taken? Does the car itself need to have some feature enabled first by the dealer? I'm making an assumption that the car has all the right hardware, but I guess it's possible some kind of receiver needs to be added to the car. Any help?
Keyless Entry Programming
1. REGISTRATION OF RECOGNITION CODE HINT:
o The add mode is used to retain the already registered codes while registering a new recognition code. This mode is used when adding a transmitter. If the number of the registered codes exceeds 4, the previously registered code will be correspondingly erased in order, starting from the first registered code.
o The rewrite mode is used to erase all the previously registered codes and register only new recognition codes. This mode is used when exchanging the transmitter or the door control receiver for new one.
o The prohibition mode is used to erase all the registered codes and cancel the wireless door lock function. Use this mode when the transmitter is lost.
o The confirmation mode is to confirm how many recognition codes have already been registered before an additional registration of a recognition code.
o All the following registration procedures must be performed in order continuously.
1. The vehicle should be in the following conditions.
1. No key is in the ignition key cylinder.
2. Driver's door is opened (the other doors are closed).
3. Driver's door is unlocked.
2. Perform the following operations to select the desired mode.
1. Insert and remove the key from the ignition switch twice within 5 seconds .
2. After the above operations, close and open the driver door twice within 40 seconds . Then insert the key into the ignition key cylinder and remove it.
3. After the above operations, close and open the driver door twice within 40 seconds . Then insert the key into the ignition key cylinder and close the door.
4. Turn the ignition switch from LOCK to ON and back to LOCK at approximately 1 second intervals 1 to 5 times to select a mode (see the table). Then remove the key from the ignition key cylinder. NOTE: If the number of the ON-LOCK operations of the ignition switch is 0, 4 or 6 or more, there will be no response (power door lock and unlock operation) to inform which mode has been selected.
5. After selecting a mode, the integration relay automatically performs the power door LOCK-UNLOCK operation within 3 seconds to inform the selected mode (see the table).
HINT:
* In confirmation mode, the LOCK-UNLOCK operation will occur once for each recognition code that has been registered. For example, if 2 recognition codes have been registered, the LOCK-UNLOCK operation will occur 2 times.
* In confirmation mode, if no recognition codes have been registered, the LOCK-UNLOCK operation will occur 5 times.
* In confirmation mode and prohibition mode, once a LOCK-UNLOCK operation response has occurred, the registration procedure will end.
3. Register the new recognition codes (Add mode or Rewrite mode):
1. Within 40 seconds after the add mode or the rewrite mode has been selected, press the LOCK and UNLOCK switches on the transmitter simultaneously for 1.0 to 1.5 seconds .Within 3 seconds after the previous operation, press either one of the switches for more than 1.0 seconds .
2. Within 3 seconds after the transmitter switch has been turned OFF, the LOCK-UNLOCK operation will be automatically performed once if the registration of the recognition code of the transmitter is completed correctly. In case the LOCK-UNLOCK operation is performed twice, the registration of recognition code has failed. Perform the registration procedure from the beginning once again.
3. If multiple transmitters need to be registered, repeat step (1) within 40 seconds after the previous registration. HINT:
o 4 recognition codes can be registered at once.
o If even one of the following conditions is satisfied, the registration mode will finish.
o 40 seconds have elapsed since the most recent transmitter registration.
o Any of the doors is opened.
o The key plate is inserted in the ignition key cylinder.
o 4 recognition codes are registered at once.
Here are the instructions for the 2003 Toyota Corolla Model.
1. Start with the key out of the ignition. Open the driver door (all other doors are closed). Driver door is unlocked (other doors don’t matter).
2. Perform these steps within 5 seconds
a. Insert the key into the ignition (don’t turn it) Pull key out
b. Insert the key into the ignition (don’t turn it) Pull key out
3. Perform these steps within 40 seconds
a. Close, then open the drivers door.
b. Close, then open the drivers door.
c. Insert the key into the ignition (don’t turn it) and pull it out.
4. Perform these steps within 40 seconds
a. Close, then open the drivers door.
b. Close, then open the drivers door.
c. Insert the key into the ignition and leave in the ignition.
d. Close the drivers door
Turn the ignition to ON (as far as you can go without cranking the engine), then back to off .
e. Remove the key from the ignition.
5. Within 3 seconds, the power door locks should lock then unlock automatically indicating successful entry into programming mode. Return to step 1 if the locks do not cycle at this point.
6. Perform these steps within 40 seconds
a. Press the lock and unlock buttons on the transmitter simultaneously for 1.5 seconds
b. Immediately after letting go of the lock and unlock buttons, press the lock button by itself and hold for 2 seconds. Within 3 seconds, the door locks should lock then unlock once indicating successful programming. If the door locks cycle twice, repeat steps 6a and 6b as the remote was not accepted.
7. Open drivers door

Some clarifications please:
There is a mention above of "see the table". What table?
Recognition codes? Registered codes?
If one has power door locks that automatically lock after shifting from P to D, what other questions must be answered to verify that keyless enty will work?
And does anyone here know of a case where keyless did NOT work, given factory installed power door locks?
I am interested in this also. I've checked ebay for remotes and apparently they have different codes. Also one seller mentioned that the remote wouldn't work on cars without a factory alarm installed. CE models were given as the example.
My car does lock when put into gear, but it is a CE model, will i need to buy something besides a remote? If all that is needed is a remote how do you know which one to get?
