So I left my keys in my pocket the other night and sure enough they went through the washer and into the dryer where I heard the noise of them rattling. I fished them out thinking the thing would be done but low and behold, it works fine. I actually snapped the case off to see why and found the electronics are protected by a waterproof gasket. Nice touch!

 

haha no wonder my keyfob survived 6 hours of kiteboarding today

 

Haha! If only cell phones were as "waterproof"

 

wow that's really good to know!

 

Lexus probably figured that with a keyless car people would forget that they even have keys

 

So we can completly submerge our key fob and it will still work?

 

I washed my cell phone one time in the washer and it still works fine.

 

hahah what kind of cell phone do u have ? Once i laid my phone on the counter by dirty clothes and some lady that was working at my house was there to clean clothes and she put my 499.00 phone in the washer and i was screwed casue it wasnt working after that.

 

was wondering myself, for when i go to HI. i figured to pull out the solid state key from the fob and take it to the beach....

 

I accidently went swimming in a pool with my 4Runner fob and it worked too. Ah, Toyota engineering.

 

I wonder if I drove the whole car into the pool it would still work?.....
