Worked perfectly for our newly used 2017 Toyota Sienna that only came with 1 fob. Used the links in your info too, and purchased from those sellers, thank you for those.
Thanks for the video. Took me a bit to get the software working since RUclips doesn’t like people showing how to do that but once I had that figured out was pretty straightforward to get the key registered.
Thanks for doing this! I got the cable and it worked like a charm. I had to watch another video in order to understand how to get to the smart key programming by going to utilities. But now I just need to get my blank cut and I'll be good to go! Saved me hundreds of dollars from doing it at the dealership.
Thanks for the info, I wanted to add that you can program the key even if the last for digit are different. My original key 2020 nx300h is 281451-2110 AG, with 3 button my new virgin key is 281451-2020 AG with 4 button.
Thank you for sharing. Great content. I thought I would not have to buy anything else besides the after market FOB, but looks like I will need to buy the Techstream :-). I have 2011 RX 350. It came with 2 key fobs and 1 I never used. 6 years after I bought the car, I found out that second fob which I never used had stopped working already. I am down to one so here comes the spare just in case :-)
Did you change the battery on unused one? I have two original keys non my IS and a third I added. Two I hardly use I need to periodically change the batteries (5 years or so) cause the eventually die.
i have a 2012 prius and my smart key module need to be replace according to Toyota, my question is can i buy a used key fob and module from ebay and reseed to my vehicle? or i need a virgin module?
Hi Binh My 2015 prius stop working with key fob after I replaced the car battery. I got master locksmith to make a new fob but he was unable to. His instrument kept saying " fail to reset code" what could be wrong? I had only one fob by the way
Thank you for your video. I would like to inform you that the title of your video is 'How to Program Lexus Toyota Replacement Smart Key with Techstream.' However, the TIS shows a 2014 Avalon 2GR-FE. Could you please clarify this?
I used a Lexus key (which is same internals) for a Toyota Avalon. The process to register a new Smart key with Techstream is the same for any Toyota product. There are scan tools now that can program keys without Techstream. ruclips.net/video/87EKPtQpLqw/видео.html
Any help, my techstream 17.30.011 does not have smart key option under body electrical. I have Entry and Start. All works fine till I have to leave the new key on the passenger seat
new key worked fine .. but programming the fab has been a struggle .. I follow the video, but when I get to the Smart Key section their IS NO Utility section ? and NO Option to program the key ? Maybe the version I got does not do the fab programming ? I also have a 2015 Toyota Camry so was expecting this to go smoothly, but my software seems different. edited .. I have now tried 5 versions of Techstream .. and when I enter the SmartKey section .. I never get a Utility button to program a new fab ?
@TunerwithKids - Thank you for sharing. When you were going through the Techstream software, it also showed a Remote Engine Starter option. Is that for programming a remote engine starter that's been installed with the existing Smart Key?
I did as described on a Avalon 2013 but the buttons won’t work apparently u need a professional for that. Key Chip did get programmed though so it starts car if I tap the engine start button
I mate, really your channel. May I ask a quick question? got an OEM used key, watching the video i noted you mentioned key needs to be "Veganized" before reprograming to my Lexus? I recently purchased “launch ODB2 scanner following your video. can it help with "veganizing" the old OEM key?
Dear a Bình. I bought an extra key for my Lexus es300h and the software to run it. I will need more connectors to proceed with programming for it. Can you let me know how I would start to proceed with a successful implementation. Thanks.
I followed through all the steps to the end but my car is 2013 rx450h. It has another step put the key to register in passenger seat. I tried placing every place on the seat but it doesn't work. Is it because the key I bought is used/not virgin? It is 30 something compared to 85 90 one on ebay.
Great Video Binh. My 2013 Avalon FOB key appears to be dead. It is beyond battery replacement. Can I use this approach to make a completely new key or does my original key have to be working? Thanks in advance.
Hi! Wondering if you can give me some insight. I have techstream and an 07 Prius equipped with smart key. I bought the car with only one fob. The smart function never worked and the lock/unlock function doesn’t work either. I bought a virgin, non-smart fob on Amazon. I got it programmed to start the car but like my other fob, locks don’t work. Is programming the locks to the fob a separate process in tech stream? Great video!
Hi I have a Toyota Allion 2008. I lost 1 set of smart key ( 3 botton) the PCB 2711451-0500. Where can I buy a new one from Techstream and program myself. Where to download the application software to do the programming.
I just bought a smart key with an AG-Chip, thinking that it would be one with the G-chip. My hope is that I will still be able to program it for a Camry 2014. Would this be possible? Thanks in advance for your reply.
hey buddy doea it matter if i match up the number on the board? or as long as the key looks identical and has the same fcc id ? some ebay sellers say i need the same board number ?
No. Virginising the key requires accessing the keys eeprom and putting back to stock. When they program, the keys and immobilizer on the car “hand shake” it’s an anti cloning feature to prevent theft and signal stealing.
Hi Binh! I just purchased a replacement for my 2013 Lexus GS350 and I didn’t see your video, of course, until AFTER I had already made my purchase. I heard you mention the virginized key is better than an after-market key & when I looked back at my invoice for my replacement purchase I thought “oh nooo!!” The company I purchased from states that it is an after-market replacement :-\ Will this be an issue or is it mainly bc the aftermarket are kind of like knock-offs as opposed to the “real thing” just refurbished/virginized? Thanks so much!
Aftermarket one may not be durable long term. Poor solder joints and weak antenna. I’ve had many remote FOBs with poor battery solder and intermittent not working.
@@TunerwithKids gotcha- & wow, thank you so much for responding so quickly! I appreciate you & your help so much. I have one other quick question if you have a minute: how do I get the software you use in this video so that I can program the key myself? It’s just a spare key (to have as a backup to my original one which is in perfect working condition) so, I kept the order I already placed for the aftermarket FOB bc I feel like at the very least I will have a working spare if the need for the spare arises. So, back to my question - I am now just curious regarding the software and whether this is a free downloadable software or something that is costly to get? Thanks again Sooo much, Binh!
You need the cable. And the software is a search away. OBD365 blog is a good resource. I’m not up to speed on how the newer versions work. I’ve heard some people have trouble with new versions not allowing TPMS or Key programming. I have a 2015 copy so mine has all the features I need.
Okay final question, I hope! Haha what is the exact cable I need? In your video I heard you say plug into the OBD port but I’m seeing lots of different versions on Amazon & don’t want to get the wrong one 😬 Thank you again for all of your help with this!!

You need to buy security tokens and have techstream to reset the immobilizer and wipe all keys. After that, you can program new keys. I’ve heard people say that even used locked keys will program after a token security reset.

@@TunerwithKids got it to work on my RC-F but for some odd reason I can’t register keys for my 2009 Lexus GS450H Edit : nvm found out for older Lexus models you click “ Smart Code Registration “ tab on my RC-F I was able to use the “ Smart Code Registration (Classic)”
I have done programming used smart key with techstream version 00.26 & Unlock used smart key with vvdi mini key tool,tq ur tutorial,may god blessed u,from🇲🇾👍👍👍
Newer versions require activation. There’s a guy on a forum that does it as a courtesy. I have a old 2015 version that didn’t require all the activation stuff. I can’t seem to locate my EXE files anymore though because I want to use on my newer PCs due to the ease.
If it’s 1010keys, they are pretty good about customer service. They might be assholes in email but will eventually take care of it especially if eBay is involved.
@@TunerwithKids yeah, after a few stupid email exchanges I got on with other things. They really botched the cuts this time though. The local Ace cut was almost perfect, however!
Anybody erased a key fob using Techstream? I don't have a spare so I got a Lexus fob from someone but I believe it is still paired to his car and wont let me program it to my car. It would suck to erase my only key to my car in the process.
Horrible software tbh. This is impossible to do without a key that’s already programmed. I’ve lost my key so how am I supposed to program a new one if I lost the old one? 😂

@TunerwithKids - Thank you for sharing. When you were going through the Techstream software, it also showed a Remote Engine Starter option. Is that for programming a remote engine starter that's been installed with the existing Smart Key?
No remote start for any cars I have.
How do you “virgin-ize” a key?
Does it have to be done at a dealership?
Eeprom erase on key. Done by key hackers and resellers. Dealership won’t do that, they will sell you a new key.
Nice Job! So what if you purchase a key that's not virgin and was married to another car? Car that be programmed still?
Key won’t program to any other car. Needs to be virgin or have security tokens purchased to allow it to program.
hey great upload, do you have a link on the exact software you used?
Gotta search online.

Can't do that to a used key. You have to hack the key and erase the EEPROM on the key to think it's new.

Old key needs to work to access the ECU.
How do you do this for programming a used non-virgin oem Toyota tundra smartkey to a Tacoma smartkey?
Non virgin keys require a decryption token to program. It basically wipes the ECU and allows any new key to work.
Hi!
Wondering if you can give me some insight.

2:27 my blank was cut at Lexus of Warwick RI and was $15.
That’s a deal. Most dealers want $55 claims the cutting bits are expensive and wear fast.
Why did you need the lock cylinder code? Does this help you get the key cut?
Yes, it is cheaper and easier for the key cutter to use the code vs looking at key and decrypting the pattern.

No. Virginising the key requires accessing the keys eeprom and putting back to stock. When they program, the keys and immobilizer on the car “hand shake” it’s an anti cloning feature to prevent theft and signal stealing.
What if there's no available slots to register a key? Can we delete any of the previous ones?

@@TunerwithKids Thanks, I looked at some of those video as well just haven't got the gut to pull the trigger LOL!. BTW, what did you used to shoot your video and how did you upload with such clarify? I normally shoot my (family stuffs) with just an Iphone and the quality is horrible after upload. Thanks for taken the time to response Binh.
My videos are shot in 4K iPhone or Fuji XT200. It’s all processed in 4K and uploaded via PC. I have external and wireless lav mics.
Did not see the link for fob replacement
One I used in the video ebay.to/3BOCFHU
How do you removereplace the door handle , it slides out.
There are 10mm behind the handle so you have to remove door panel and lock and unbolt and slide the front out.
Any ideas if this process will work with an RC-F?
Yes newer Lexus all same.
@@TunerwithKids awesome ! I’ll keep you updated on how it goes ! Wish me luck and thank you for the great video !!!
@@TunerwithKids got it to work on my RC-F but for some odd reason I can’t register keys for my 2009 Lexus GS450H
Edit : nvm found out for older Lexus models you click “ Smart Code Registration “ tab on my RC-F I was able to use the “ Smart Code Registration (Classic)”
I can't se who ur referring to that cuts keys?
Links to eBay in description box.
Would this be the same if I wanted to program an extra key for an IS250?
Yes, any Toyota/Lexus keyless I guess

hello how are you, how I reset a used key? I bought I used key on ebay, is not virgin
No idea. They probably have to erase the eeprom on the key. Need specialized equipment.
Can this be used for 2023 Toyota rav4?
Good question
I do have dead key to manually start car.
Dead key needs to be placed onto start button to read. That’s the failsafe.
You have the link to the guy who have the techstream
Search on the blog for obdii365 site.
@@TunerwithKids ok
can I reset used Lexus key to virgin?
Not without the right tools to access the EEProm and rewrite it.

What if you do not have a key fob, it is a push button
You’re screwed and need it towed to dealership. They will probably try to replace the entire immobilizer system vs trying to reseed the ECU.
Can i program with used smart key,
No unless it’s been erased or “virginized”. The eeprom handshakes with ECU.
I have done programming used smart key with techstream version 00.26
& Unlock used smart key with vvdi mini key tool,tq ur tutorial,may god blessed u,from🇲🇾👍👍👍
What cable dis you use?
Check links in description.
@@TunerwithKids - Thank you!!
I can’t run techstream after downloading it.
Newer versions require activation. There’s a guy on a forum that does it as a courtesy. I have a old 2015 version that didn’t require all the activation stuff. I can’t seem to locate my EXE files anymore though because I want to use on my newer PCs due to the ease.
@@TunerwithKids if you find it post it in here or on clublexus please sir
Lost key possible?
No. You gotta erase immobilizer chip and reset.
@@TunerwithKids tnx👍
not working for TOYOTAs after 2019
👍
Last time, the $15 guy botched both of the keys I ordered from him, for a loss of $30.
If it’s 1010keys, they are pretty good about customer service. They might be assholes in email but will eventually take care of it especially if eBay is involved.
@@TunerwithKids yeah, after a few stupid email exchanges I got on with other things. They really botched the cuts this time though. The local Ace cut was almost perfect, however!
Good morning, my name is Stephen Okyere, I'm from Ghana, I am outo election I want to your friend, if I need something u can help me to get it
Anybody erased a key fob using Techstream? I don't have a spare so I got a Lexus fob from someone but I believe it is still paired to his car and wont let me program it to my car. It would suck to erase my only key to my car in the process.
Not possible. They weren’t supposed to be erasable but people make their own devices to do it.
@@TunerwithKids Thanks for the reply! Love your videos!

Horrible software tbh. This is impossible to do without a key that’s already programmed. I’ve lost my key so how am I supposed to program a new one if I lost the old one? 😂
Dealer has to reseed the ECU (labor/diagnostics time) with security codes directly from manufacturer and sell you a new $300 key.

Windows? Not really gonna happen...
