Connected services only affects the phone app. The key fob is a radio signal directly to the truck.

[@BPJac]

My remote start works on the keyfob. My subscription ended over 6 months ago. 2020 SR5

[@joejr9653]

Subscription on my 2020 army green tundra ended in February. I just tried my key fob and it still starts.

[@willnose757]

I bought my 2020 Platinum CM in September of 2019. When my subscription ran out I was disappointed to find out that my key fob DID NOT work, and didn’t for quite a while! I thought maybe I’d wait it out to see if enough complaints came in about the key fob not working without connected services to make a difference. It is, after all, a very expensive truck, and I didn’t think that the subscription expiring should disable the key fob, as it did with my truck. I tried it tonight after watching this video and reading the comments. It now WORKS!! Great information to know, especially since summer is coming! Thank you TD34 for the information and keep the content coming!

[@MrMauidiver]

Prescription? What medications are you taking…?

[@leonardhartford9350]

My Tundra remote start on the fob seemed to quit for a couple months after the subscription ran out, but seems to be working fine now.

[@travismc4154]

My salesman tokd me when I took delivrry that my 2021 TRD PRO woukd be active for 3 yrs and thry “may” give up to 10. Time will tell i guess. This scresms of a class action if thry don’t at least leave the fob remote start capabilities in tact

[@sal5904]

I’d like to say thank you so much for this video. That was one of my peeves about this truck that I did not have Remote Start unless I had to pay for the remote connect. I complained to the dealership and they didn’t tell me I had that option on my key fob and I called Toyota headquarters themselves and they didn’t tell me either . I paid a lot of money for the tundra and I’m not interested in paying a subscription. But here’s my other issue since my Remote Start problem is gone. The subscription for the remote connect keeps popping up when I’m driving my truck. Now, if I can get that to go away, I’d be really happy with this truck.

[@christophermoyns4412]

My subscription ended and the key fob on my 2020 Tundra works just fine.

[@barrydowner7975]

my 2020 Toyota Platinum it doesn't work after the subscription as expired.... its ridiculous for a 65,000 Canadian dollar truck!

[@Yul-Uhlu]

Mine stopped working for months now, i called toyota usa and complained, i wrote a email/letter to toyota usa and chewed them a new azzhole. Now i just tried my remote start and its working again. WTH

[@barrydowner7975]

@@Yul-Uhlu funny thing is mine started working yesterday too.... strange

[@caroleharding9460]

When service connect expires, 10 years in USA , 8 years in Canada , remote start with the fob will quit working

[@fanjet737]

Didn’t know I had that available on my 2020 TRD off-road. Its works via the fob without subscription. It will come in handy on the Arizona summers! Thanks!

[@dennisyounkin644]

I guessing people are complaining the remote start doesnt work from the app anymore, not the fob!!!

[@Jeffreypark]

I use remote start a lot to get the AC going on hot days. Had to get the car coded at the dealer to open all the windows with the key fob as well (2019 RAV4). Connected services expired long ago but remote start with fob still works.

[@2020Tundra]

Good to know and thanks for the demonstration. Maybe some folks are not following the exact steps? I bought my 2020 Platinum 4x4 back in July of 2020 so I’ve got a few months before my subscription expires.

[@camilovaldera2039]

I got the 2023 tundra my fob remote does work but it was cool that I use to start the remote from the app since I live in Long Island and it’s get very cold but Toyota should have gave us the app since the truck is expensive. Thanks for your videos they are very helpful.

[@markcollins3732]

Thank you. I didn't even know I had that option.

[@georgeversluis8442]

I had no idea. I just bought a 2022 and just tried it It does work

[@mikeboccasini4166]

Just tested my 2021 Tundra 1792 and to my surprise it did remote start!

[@Inspector694]

The engine fan on startup is louder than the trd exhaust, don’t know why toyota does this, on any ford gm or ram you can actually hear the exhaust on startup

[@brandon6451]

Electric cooling vans which Toyota should install on ALL models. Clutch fans are obsolete, robs power and economy

[@dalunchboy]

My 2020 TRD Pro, the key fob stopped working shortly after the subscription expired. It started working again within minutes of resubscribing. Really frustrating. Sounds like they have changed it after enough people complained. Point of fact, I picked my 2020 up on September 10th of 2019. I had it pretty early in the model year. So when my subscription came up, not enough people had complained yet is my guess. Just a thought. Thank you to all that complained loud enough! Hopefully I won't have to resubscride next year.

[@MikeJones-jr5hb]

My key fob still cranks my 2019 Rav4 we’ve had it over 3 years now.

[@freeravenadventures6925]

Just ordered the TRD exhaust from sparks parts with your promo code!

[@user-kq7gi7eh1s]

You won't regret it !

[@teller121]

@@user-kq7gi7eh1s Is this different from the one available on Toyota site. There they offer exhaust version for $750 and one for pipes (I guess) for about 400. Is the Sparks offering different and is there any reason to go with Sparks over Toyota?

[@Inspector694]

You wont hear it the dam engine fan is so loud!

[@phils4life777]

The key remote starts works for 3 years I was told even though the subscription lasts for 1 year.

[@goingindieEN]

Interesting.

[@dalephillips8250]

Of course it will.....I never even got a subscription and mine works and still works.

[@Yul-Uhlu]

I spoke with toyota usa rep and the toyota remote services connect rep and here's the answer: your remote start is connected to your Safety connected services, not your Remote connect services (don't ask me why). As long as one of the trial services have not expired (3 in total), you will be able to still use your key fob remote start. Once ALL of your toyota connected services have expired, you will NOT be able to use your key fob to start your truck. Also, as long as you subscribe to one (any) connected monthly services, you will be able to use your key fob to start your Tundra. I verified this info with toyota usa and separately with the connected service dept/rep. Also, the connected service dept is a contracted company that has been hired by Toyota to run this service, so they are seperate from the Toyota USA reps. I was sent an email that my Safety connected services were being extended for 30 days so i could "consider" subscribing to the service. So that extended my key fob start by 30 days past my remote connect services experation date. So i thought i also had a working key fob, until one month later the key fob stopped working because my Safety connected services finally expired. That's when I made the call to Toyota and their connected services support. Just an update: i just tried my remote start and its working again. This is some crazy stuff. When my remote start stopped working i even took it to the dealership and they verified it wasnt working but that i needed to call toyota connected services. I did and they told me what i listed in this thread above. I do know that the toyota rep said they were getting alot of blowback from this key fob remote start "pay wall" so maybe Toyota decided to extend the service finally. My remote start hasn't been working for months, now suddenly its working again. Smh. Hell if i know whats going on anymore. Thanks Toyota for giving me back my remote start....but for how long? Smh

[@david.westergard9959]

Until last June when I bought my new tundra, I never had a remote start,, leather seats, heated seats , nothing. Ever. So I find it to be amazing!! And there’s no way I’ll EVER go without it again. I’m paying for all 3 every month. I need it up in Canada 🇨🇦

[@goingindieEN]

I might but it during the winter months and cancel it during the warmer months, since it’s very useful during the cold.

[@richscott2483]

Lucky you... did your Key FOB remote start not work anytime in the last 2 years since posting this video? I purchased a 2023 Camry XSE V6 fully loaded in Dec. 2022 and my 1 yr trial Toyota App Remote Connection had ended and was not able to remote start in Dec. 2023. I recently renewed the Remote Connection subscription and am now able to remote start again with the Key FOB or via the Android phone Toyota App. Since the 1st year was a trial, with the expectation of a price increase each year plus tax to $90 per year times 9 years is $810. Ridiculous that Toyota has to rip off people.

[@richeastmain4031]

Maybe I’m missing something. Using the fob doesn’t use connected service. It’s not using an app. It just communicates directly with the truck. Why wouldn’t it work? My 2017 never had any connected services and the factory remote start has always worked.

[@paula591]

I never used the app but my starter works and i can open my door and put the key in click it 2 times then step on the break good to go.

[@sandwicheman9772]

If this start happening next will be the seat warmer then the Ac then Heater then Radio and then anything else that's not needed legally especially inboard GPS

[@sylvesterroosevelt9310]

Mine is about to expire in 2 Days. I have a 2023 RAV4. I will see if this works in a couple of Days. I keep getting messages it will expire. I didn’t know this was only a one year free trial. Now I know.

[@Windbreakercliffs]

My Remote Start still works on a 2020 TRD Pro Tundra as well.

[@wallyborni4411]

Just got from the dealer and it’s only the app option that I have to pay for, the key fob u dont have to pay for subscription

[@kirkkramer2412]

12 volt solutions is the aftermarket auto start I put on my wife’s rav4 ( works great) I am a man and don’t need auto start on my tundra.

[@rbmoose22]

I would tell the dealer prior to purchase, no remote start, no purchase after the subscription ! I paid $300 for a remote start on my 2019 Tundra and when unlocked, engine stays on unless I tap the brake. I am looking at the GMC 2500 AT4 because GM gives you remote start w/o a subscription. I miss the payload capability that I had on my 2004 Ram 2500 quad cab Off Road.

[@jamesledesma3715]

I have 2020 Tundra TRD sport it wouldn’t start with the key fob after subscription ended I had to re subscribe I am with you as much as the truck cost should be standard remote start

[@Yul-Uhlu]

Try it now. My 2020 tundra stopped working for months after the toyota connected services expired, i just tried it and it works.

[@fams0385]

you also got me to by a tundra and just super satisfied loved it coming from a titan that i had for 16 years

[@servantsoldier5207]

How much does Toyota remote connection cost?

[@MajorRaynor]

If your Toyota comes with push to start it will always shut off when you open any door even if it is an aftermarket remote start.

[@alienation-e6h]

Not true. The 12v solutions remote start system WILL NOT shut off.

[@jacob106106]

Talking about cold... I hope they improve heater on NextGen Tundra... current one sucks compare to my wife's new hyundai... Here in canada, My heater takes forever to heat up... although once hot 🔥 it works great...

Is it the app remote start that doesn't work perhaps?

I declined mine cuz I im like you I don’t like them tracking me and they shut mine off! 2022 Tacoma limited 4x4

[@ROBERTCVOSS]

My 2017 Lexus connected services are will not be available sometime in 2022 if i want to pay or not. This car has been a let down.

[@servantsoldier5207]

After remote start, Opening the door should not stop the engine ????

[@TundraDude34]

On the Tundra, when you remote start, the door has to remain locked and closed. Once you open the door, the engine stops. Then you hop in and start the truck like normal.

[@ApexPro-Chris]

It does work but the 2020 Tundra remote sucks, sometimes mine never works no matter how close I am. Pretty sad Toyota. Can’t make it work right. My 2010 Tundra at least work at 100 feet. My 2020 is tundra sport with the audio plus so it has remote start.

[@wrrccreations443]

It will quit after free subscription expired on all models with connect. Is a way to get you to pay or pay during the months you want it. it can also depend on how dealership set account up sometimes they will add to subscriptions for a selling point. It’s all controlled through dcm. Tied in with SOS. Can call dealer with vin run through service lane see what is still active on subscription. Also red sos light indicates problem green sos light good. Red sos light can also mean inactive. There is so much to system it’s crazy. There are videos where people had videos of portable Xm units cancelled subscription had unplugged for year plugged back in have free XM because stopped sending deactivate single. There is so much to the system why audio units are 5k plus for new. Everything is remain when replaced. remote stats were same from 07 to 17 changed from 18 and again now with smart key. Can always use sos button ask to talk to agent see subscription updates and make sure they can give you your location and last 8 of vin.

Got a new 21 camey xse and my remote start doesn't work

[@fams0385]

quick question u r probally the best person do ask this were can i get the oem dual rapid usb charger for the back passenengers that come on the 2021 tundra. also was thinking of doing the oem bed lights what do u think and is there any other options then tapping into the wiring ? thanx im also from jersey in central and i drive by the toyota dealer that on rt-9 once in a while and the dealers by me have no tundras had to go with a buddy of mine to pa to by a tacoma this weekend

[@lennyperry6210]

How do you get the A/C button to stay on when you’re remote starting?

[@TundraDude34]

I dont think you can

[@chriswalters4035]

I bet most people with the remote start don't realize you can just use their key fob instead of your phone

[@acpreciado]

2020 trd sport after a year it still works but there is times it doesn’t turn off the truck when open up, I need to push the push start button to turn it off, then it won’t turn back on the truck there’s power just won’t start, I need to disconnect the battery to reset the computer then it starts up normal buy using the push start button scared to tell the dealer don’t want them to removed that feature. Any ideas what I should do?

[@gfgneo]

Toyota changed their policy. Instead of loosing it right away those with audio plus have key fob remote start for 3 years. Those with the premium have key fob remote start for 10yrs. After that it requires a subscription

[@socalrandy]

My connected services have expired and I am still able to remote start my 2020 Limited Crewmax via the key fob... just tried it to verify!

[@Infiniteperspective1111]

If any of my hardware that I paid for stops working, I’m suing!! The app is a different story because it’s using the Internet and maintained services including third parties

[@vanceoliver3738]

if you remote start the truck, does the truck cut off when you open the door? And if so, does that apply to any door you open or just the drivers door?

[@TundraDude34]

Yep, it cuts off, by design. The minute you unlock, it shuts down

[@teller121]

Is there any disadvantage to dual exhaust as to increasing cab noise too much?
