Security Issue? No start

Security Issue? No start

The past week, my 2014 SR5 has failed to start and goes completely dead. I insert the key, no crank, no sound, nothing. I have a newer battery, about 6 months old, also a newer fob battery from the dealership. After unlocking the vehicle and inserting the key it goes dead. Then the fob will not unlock or lock the vehicle, the only light that appears is the passenger light that shows a vehicle with a lock. Looking this up, it means the key is out of sync causing the anti-theft protocol to shut the vehicle off. All electric functions stop working. I was able to resolve this issue the first time by unlocking and locking with the fob and it seemed to recognize the key again but obviously this didn’t last. I tried to insert the key and put it in the ‘on’ position for 10 minutes to resync but that didn’t do anything. I’m bringing my socket set to work where I had to leave my vehicle to disconnect the battery and see if that resets the computer. The picture shows the only light that comes on, it flashes showing the lock.

Has anyone seen this issue before?

My best coin

Being deployed a lot while doing comm support put me in great positions to assist various traveling leaders. Here’s one of my best coins

Just an appreciation post. I’m thankful for the service the VA has provided me in my area. Getting an optometry appointment did take some time, but still very thankful I no longer have to pay for expensive eye wear or exams. These are frames provided by the VA, they feel great and are transition lenses. Much better than anything I received on AD.

My only gripe with post military care has been the lack of dental care, everything else has been great.
