Review on Toyota Genuine PT398 42130 Remote Starter by Dylan Aaronson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great on my 2017 RAV4

This was an easy to medium install and took me about 1 hour. Works great on 2017 RAV4. Requires Toyota Techstream activation after installation. I bought a cheap ($40) J2534 VCI cable from Revain that contained software version v16.00. I learned the hard way that the Toyota owner's manual for part PT398-42130 is very accurate and must be followed closely. I closed the hood before proceeding to install interior parts, although the manual didn't tell me to. And then I tried to activate the module for 10 minutes without success, until I realized that the hood had to still be open for the activation to be successful.

Pros
  • Original Toyota
Cons
  • Easy repairability
