#1 of 2 Smart Key by larry51k May 31, 2009 (5:24 pm)
I'd like to have a keypad (like Ford products) installed on my wife's new RAV. We just traded in her Ford and she always left her keys in the car, using the keypad to enter after it had been locked. Since leaving the Smart key in the vehicle prevents the doors from being locked, I've been told that installing a keypad would NOT defeat this feature. Thus, she would not be able to lock the the RAV (using the lock on the drivers door) while leaving the Smart key in the car. The installation of the key pad would be a waste of money. Anyone disagree? Replies to this message: cbmorton (Jun 01, 2009 5:01 am)

Replying to: larry51k (May 31, 2009 5:24 pm) Sounds like solid logic to me. If the idea is to intentionally lock the key in the car, that's impossible with the smart key on the RAV4 Limited. Even if you have one key with you outside the car and leave one key inside, it still won't lock.
