I didn't think they were on the 07 but it is a very good possibility. I would look into that before trying to wire up that relay setup.Kenny

Think I would try finding the Unlock wire coming in from the passenger door in the Passenger Kick Panel.  While you will have to solder an extension onto the R/S's Unlock output wire to make the extra distance, you will only need a single pulse to unlock all doors.Soldering is fun!

For a 2007 RAV4, the unlock/disarm should be pink, pin 9 in the 12 pin white plug in the driver's kick.  This is the key cylinder unlock wire, and will unlock all doors and disarm the factory security system with a double pulse.   Bulldog has it listed as:

POWER UNLOCK

PINK to LIGHT GREEN (TYPE B) (Requires Double Pulse)

IN DRIVERS KICK PANEL, 12-Pin Plug, Pin 9

To generate a double pulse if your system doesn't support double pulse outputs, you would use a DEI 452T doorlock pulse generator--fairly simple to use.  Here is the link: DEI 452T Double Pulse Generator

  You should also be able to use a single pulse to the pink wire listed above for disarm/no unlock.

Or use an aux or trunk release on the R/S if there is one to generate the -going 2nd. unlock. There that's about 3 answers so far.

Thanks for the replies !!  First I will check the unlock wire in vehicle and make sure I have the right wire. I have a 2007 Tacoma and the unlock requires a double pulse to unlock all doors. I just push the unlock once and it unlocks driver door and push unlock again right after the driver door unlocks and the rest unlock. Same with my wifes 2005 Rav4. Which I don't mind it working that way. I just figured this one would be the same, I must have the wrong unlock wire. It's my dads Rav that I'm working on so this coming weekend Im gonna take a look at it. I will let you guys know what I find out. Thanks again !

Some units will allow you to press twice, but will require almost perfect timing. I noticed on a compustar that I did that you couldn't just press it twice, you had to press it once, then as soon as the parking lights stopped flashing you had to press it again within a second or so. Timing was a pain. But I would still check your connections.Kenny

Well I ran the unlock wire over to the passenger side and now have single pulse lock and single pulse unlock. But the darn thing only works correctly if one of the front doors is open. Could it have something to do with the dome light being on is why it works ? Because soon as I shut the door and lock it and then try to unlock I get nothing. I fixed my 2007 Tacoma this morning by runnning the unlock wire to the passenger and now it unlocks fine on a single pulse but this 2007 RAV4 is irritating me.

Did you try pressing the button twice to signify a double pulse?Kenny

Yep,but nothing,you can hear the R/S module click that's all.

Thats very odd. I don't remember ever having issues with those. Did you switch the wires to the ones I posted earlier? Also, I don't remember, is it locking and not unlocking or do neither work?Kenny
