"95 sedan door lock
 

Is it possible to fix the driver's side door lock and get a new keyless entry button for this car?

What is the problem with the lock?

Did you loose the key fob or do you want to install a remote lock.

The fob stopped working and a new battery did not help. Then the key stopped working in the door and we have to unlock the passenger side to get into the car. thanks

Does the door lock/unlock electric switch on the drivers console work?

Does the manual unlock on the door work?

Yes Sir to both questions

Not sure the US Camry offered factory or dealer remote door locks until around 1998.

Is this an aftermarket FOB?

We bought it new off the lot like this. I found an online source for the fob but just needed to know what part I need for the lock and directions on repair process. Dealer said cost is around 300 for them to do it. Might be my best bet.

Check the FOB and determine if it has the Toyota logo on it.

The only info I have is for 1997 and later cars. To reprogram the FOB requires disconnecting the power mirror plug and jumping some some wires.

Thanks. I ordered a new one. Hopefully that will do it. I do not believe it is the actuator but possibly the latch which I guess is what the key is trying to turn to open the door. I just did not want to take apart the door unless I had a good idea of what the problem might be since ordering parts takes a few days. But if the Fob does work and the folks at originalkeyless.com are correct then programing it should not be a problem. Thanks again.

Great.

The system appears to be a dealer installed option.

Yea, it appears it was installed upon entering U.S. or a dealer installed it. I had the dealership reactivate the fob that came with it. The dealer said they use some kind of computer to do so. Originalkeyless.com insists the new fob they sent will work if programmed per their instructions which says to push a little green button on the tvss box until the red led light comes on and then push the top button on the fob which activates the key fob. I am suppose to take the car back to the dealer today to see if they can program the new fob so I will have two of them. I would not let the dealer fix the lock on the door because of the cost. Seems there should be a cheaper way than 300 dollars. Then again, one cannot get parts easily for these cars as you may think. Online I only see the lock and the handle for the door but I do not know if one of these is the part I need to fix the door so the regular key will work. It would be nice to see a diagram of the inside of the door.

TVVS system has its own instuctions and predates the Toyota VIP RS system. The VIP RS3000 FOB can be used with the TVVS system.

The linkbelow may have instructions for the TVVS.

Found Diagrams for 1995 toyota camry etc.
 

It's possible that with the replacement of the battery, the fob may need reprogramming. I've been looking for the instructions myself, so if you manage to come across it, I wouldn't mind a copy

Since the dealer said the new Fob I had would not work, I sent it back to originalkeyless which has given me some flack and has not been very cooperative such as refusing to give me a return number but VISA said I did not need the return number for them to help me with the refund if necessary. I am waiting on orginalkeyless to respond now.

Had the same experience with returning mail order parts that were the wrong one.

VISA is the one that pays the bills and can do a charge back with orginalkeyless.

orginalkeyless could contest this charge back thus save all your correspondence, etc.

You position is the part sent was assured to work, it did not work. The Toyota dealer stated it could not work with your system in the car and set you up with the right FOB.

Now you want to return the part that does not work with your system.

Only send the part back via a shipping method that has tracking such as USP or FedEx.

If the parts was mailed to you, USPS has a merchandise return form you can use. Mail the item from a counter having a person that will stamp everything, not an automated postal machine. Insure the item.

You don't want to give orginalkeyless any chance to state they did not receive the returned part. If you have a camera might even take photos of the part.

Also in my experience orginalkeyless may have 30 days to refund your money once the part is returned.

Make sure you get some kind of processing (claim) number from VISA. They can work the claim without your sending in written notice but you only have 60 days from the time you get the your statement with the orginalkeyless charge to submit a claim.

You want some kind of proof you started a claim with VISA and a processing number would help in this area.

The completed process can drag out for up to four months, thus keep good records.

This is the most common problem with todays cars. I mostly hear about this kind of problem by car owners. You can open the lock manually by removing the window rubber. Use a hard wire and mold it from one side. Then put it into the door panel and pull the lock hook with the wire. hope it works.

I always do this and it work :) but I seem to harder as I continue doing it... it seems that the problem is getting on the next level :( I just hope it won't occur again.
