Thank you SO much for posting this. We lost the key, and the locksmith told us $240 to make a new key. But he said if we can "pull the switch before he got here... He would knock $50 off the price.". Well... I called the auto store and the ignition switch was $46. So, we looked it up on you tube and saved over $200! Thank you AGAIN for posting this!!!
Ok Katherine, I know, but you need to use 2 keys or not? wath happen to the door key?, your vehicle is open all time? I Don't understand. You only think in save money, locksmith need work yet
He feeds you with information but withholds the most important thing - how to re-code the key. Which basically is rearranging what's already there to fit the original key.
i have done one of these ignition barrels before i decoded the door lock then used instacode to find the last bitting that was needed for the ignition . i just made a video on Nissan patrol decoding as well
Thank you for this video. My 98 4runner has two keys,...one for the doors and one for the ignition. I purchase it a week ago and don't like using two different keys. Pulled out the ignition switch and will bring it to a Lock Smith to have it re-coded to the door key. Thanks for the help.
@@lambertomidolini8027 yea i suppose. I think i would just replace with new ignition lock after recoding it, I am locksmith and have done a lot of these, but never reused a drilled out retainer ignition lock cylinder
He shows you @ 7:06. And if you think I am being funny, I am not. Maybe just take another look. Watch the whole video again. He shows you how he took the cap off twice.
after you drilled out the retainer , isn't that retainer gone now? I saw that you refilled the hole but that retainer had a purpose of holding the cylinder in place. Is that correct?? So what happens with the retainer that was drilled???
why not just pick the toyota lock cylinder or drill straight into the hole the detent is in it's an easy job find the drill bit of proper size and then you can recode it or put the pins back in place for the lock.
Parts used to "recode" lock cylinders, are sold to locksmiths, in various ways; some by kit, others can be purchased individual. You can also use parts from a similar lock.
Good video, but it would have been more helpful if you would have shown how to actually remove the cylinder cap instead of skipping ahead. I have this very cylinder and cannot get the cap off to save my life
I figured out a method for removing the cap. Step 1) There are two pins that exit the back side of the cap/bezel and are peened over onto the body of the cylinder. I drilled those out. Step 2) There is a tab that extends perpendicular to the plane of the cap, inside of which there is another pin, driven into a pocket on the cylinder body (which is between his three fingers at 7:32). It must have been driven in at the factory, because I was able to force the cap off after doing just step 1 and drive the pin out from the inside. It might be easier to just drill it out. If the cap doesn't come off easily at that point, try placing it in a vice so it is just catching the bottom edge of the cap, then, using a small dowel in the key opening, tap the cylinder away from the cap. Hope this helps.
Hi i got a 4runner 2002 and issue comes when you start the car while is in on position you can take out the key from ignition switch what is wrong there.
But then you would have different keys for the door (and trunk) and the ignition, right? I think this is why recoding the ignition lock to the existing key is desirable.
@@JesstheGeologist You are correct, unless you want to re-code the door/trunk lock cylinders to match the ignition key....in which case you'd have a full matching set.
In this case. The original lock was destroyed and needed to be replaced. And for the life of me why would you want two different keys for your vehicle. If someone tries to save a buck, at least rekey the new cylinder to match the original key

Amen, Bro. Howbeit, it is not my intent to "train." Rather, to offer "tips" to those who are "trained," and/or need a "reminder" on certain aspects of our trade/craft.
@@sistercalhoun4444 One of the good things is: having the "drive" you display; using a portion of the finances that God has allowed you (that you can't take with you); one can register in "formal training," and STOP trying to use RUclips videos as a "Free" course. For such is the "way of the thief who [instead of entering in at the door] will climb up another way." Be blessed, bro.
Very very well explained sir. Enjoyable to watch.

Yes and now your ignition is not up to code.

At 7:05 - how did you get the pin that holds the face plate out?

What did you use to plug up the hole?
more importly, how did he fix the retainer so it holds in place since he drill it out
Maybe with a poxy putty
@@lambertomidolini8027 yea i suppose. I think i would just replace with new ignition lock after recoding it, I am locksmith and have done a lot of these, but never reused a drilled out retainer ignition lock cylinder
I’m a locksmith myself automotive I just use Lishi tool
At 7:20 how do you actually get that cap off? Did you edit that out on purpose??
What time u want me there

What'd he fill the hole with? How is the ignition lock staying put?
Dammit! I wanna know as well!
Pointless video! The most important information is withheld! Then he implies that locksmithing is somehow above the average person’s abilities. Ha!
its not that locksmith's are above anyone's abilities, but that the locksmith is "qualified" to do this, ethics
Whats the long bar coming off the back of the lock cylinder and what is its purpose?
why not just pick the toyota lock cylinder or drill straight into the hole the detent is in it's an easy job find the drill bit of proper size and then you can recode it or put the pins back in place for the lock.
Hi where can i get the parts to reprogram the cylinder?

@@r3woods does this destroy that cap? I want to just rekey, but want to retain the cap as well.
@@r3woods dont drill it out, they are easy to remove.
So you removed the button that holds the lock in the cylinder and now anyone can remove it.
nice video, friend, can you show how to do it, on citroen/renault/peugeout , models? recode locks
how about chevy s10, can you do a video about it, showing how to dismantle cylinder lock from ignition, and cut a key,
Good morning, where are you located? Are you from Guam? I have a client who lost his key for a 2007 Dodge Caravan there in Guam.
Hawaii my friend.
hello good sir I have a ??? can you switch the key . for a 1993 pick up switch for a 1996 Toyota 4runner. switch
Great Video!!! Thanks

Worn out key more than likely. Go to a locksmith and get a new key cut by code
Toyota Etios, inserted duplicate key. key for locked.How to remove
Interesting video, but once you get the old cylinder out, you can buy a replacement cylinder with brand new keys for less than thirty bucks.
But then you would have different keys for the door (and trunk) and the ignition, right? I think this is why recoding the ignition lock to the existing key is desirable.

Buen video!
Now recode my brain too after all that brain fuck
thnaks
This video is absolutely useless except for the drilling the lock cylinder out.
