If you’re watching this, do yourself a favor and use Tom’s Keys to make your Toyota key. I used the Toyota Keymaker and I got the strange light turned on that he talks about at the end, and I couldn’t get the remote parts working. He’s right that it’s fine fir a valet key. The Tom’s Keys gadget programmed everything really well, it worked with my cheap Amazon keys, and it got rid of that weird light too. Thanks El Chano Jose!
that is the security indicator light, the flashing means that its not armed, park the vehicle and turn the key from on to off five times ending with OFF, remove the key then start it and see if the light remains off. This has worked for me after programming new key I had the flashing light issue. Hope this helps someone.
Jose, what model and year Toyota is that? From the video, it looks like it will program an unprogrammed key, but it will unprogram a programmed key. I don't like that new flashing security light, though. I wonder if someone has posted instructions for making one of these key programmers. I suppose, though, that there's an internal chip with software to interact with the car computer. My 2006 Scion tC uses the same transponder key as a friend's 2008 Toyota Matrix, but I can program new keys using the procedure where you open and close the door 5 times, but that won't work on the Matrix. (The pressing-the-pedals routine doesn't work, either.) The Smart Keymaker is supposed to work on the 2008 Matrix, which is why I bought one and am now looking for the right instructions.
hello thanks for everything, i still have a question. now the device has come i put it in the obd then waited it beeped the whole time, now the indicator light of the immobilizer does not go out, could the control unit have broken?
Hello Dashty! This component works only in Toyota. But you might find other products on the market that are for your car or other cars. Take care Dashty!
How were you able to clear the transponder keys from the ECU? You mentioned disconnecting everything. Is there a way to do this by disconnecting the ECU, or did you use an OBD-II cable and TechStream?
you have to use a paper clip and connect terminal 4 unto terminal 13 on the OBD socket, and leave the ignition ON for 30 minutes, however before you do that, disconnect the battery, (the main earth side- NEGATIVE terminal) and using a jumper cable connect the positive cable of the battery to EARTH,remember the other earth (negative cable) MUST be disconnected whilst you're doing this,this will dissipate all the charge in the system and flatten the capacitors in the ECU, do this for about 5 minutes, then proceed with the 1st part of this instructions (reconnect the earth cable back on) 1st, once all this is done, your ready to reprogram the keys.
@@sollykhan2385 Thanks for the reply, I think I ended up doing this using TechStream but it was almost a year ago already, so I can't even recall anymore. Either way, I now have two working keys and remotes.
@@ChrisMak1 so glad it all worked out well, shame it took so long for anyone to notice your post, take care, and THANK you for responding to my concern, take care, Bless🙂
Hello Adu! We use it only in our Toyota Camry but have not tried on other cars. So far we have programmed 4 keys to our Camry and save lots of money with this device. Take well care Adu!
To clear that security lights flashing, you need to insert the master key and turn to ignition 5 times with less than 5 seconds. It will clear the code.
@@west_park7993 Most of the 2000s toyota vehicle are programmed for two master keys only. That's meant one of your key is being deleted from the systems. You can program your master key back by doing the same way. If you want more than 2 keys, you need to clone it.
RAV4 2010, dot on the original blade. Bought 2 keys from ebay. Seller said, chip is 4D67 and will work. When you plug the obd keymaker, the computer goes into solid red SEC programming mode. Very difficult to get out of programming. In your clip, as soon as you removed the key, the SEC light goes off, but in mine, it stays on. I tried to turn it off by quickly turning the original key on-off a few times, and now the car will not start with the original key!!! All online instructions I found: All keys are lost, you must press the LED button constantly. Can anyone tell me where is the ???? LED button? There is a LED light on the keymaker, but no button to push. Any help will be appreciated.
Hello Jasón! I have not yet run in to that situation but it works. The only thing is that the new key has to be cut and that is why you need on car key to get the right cut so it can turn the ignition. If you have no key to copy the new one, how are you going to turn on the ignition?
@@elchanojose If you dont cut the blank key before programming, it should turn the ignition on. A locksmith can cut your blank "uncut key" if you remove the driver side switch and take it to him.
Hello Afford! I bought mine from eBay, but there are a few option to buy it from online. I saw it in Amazon also. The price is also different depending where you buy it from. Take care Afford!
Hello Ting! I borrow this item from a friend and after I saw how much I saved by programming my own keys, I bought one for me. It has been a great investment. Take well care Ting!
Hello Johnny! First of all thank you for visiting our channel! What car is the one you need a key for? Getting or buying a replacement key for your car can be very confusing do to having lots of sellers and different keys claiming to fit or work with your car. First, compare the shape of the key you are buying to the original key of your car. Second, on the description when buying a key make sure the seller or the place you are buying that the key fits and works with the car and model you own. You don’t have to buy the most expensive key for it to work. Try to match the description of the seller to the car you own. Let us know if we can help you further about the key for your car! Take care Johnny!
ultimate piece of garbage. if i program 1 key, the other key is deleted. or all are deleted. no one has posted clear and understandable instructions. i am returning mine to walmart.
All you have to do going to locksmith with the original and pay 15 dollars....lololol. You uses the immobilizer went you lost all keys TARTA..TARTA..LOLOLOLO
WRONG! You can buy an OBD port programmer for Type G or Type H keys; OR......... you can buy a VCI mini cable and use Toyota Techstream software with a laptop. Both of those options are cheaper than going to the stealership!
@@postingid3214 How about telling people what year your car is? If you want your key to work EXACTLY like the original one with all the functions to open the trunk and operate the alarm system you need to have the dealership program a new key. If your driving an old shit beater and don’t mind driving around with instrument lights flashing then go ahead and buy this.
@@Gigantortacoma4x4 ***LMAO*** "TRIGGERED!!!" btw: the wife's car is a 2011. I paid a locksmith $25 to program it. I got the key from Amazon for $18 and Lowe's cut it for free. (I got it cut before I had it programmed)
