SUBARU BRZ ALL KEYS LOST PROGRAMMING EEPROM
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 апр 2024
- Hey guys! In today's video we take a look at a 2013 Subaru BRZ. The owner of the vehicle lost his only key, so we were asked to come see if we could make a new one. After trying to program the key via OBD2, I quickly realized that this job was going to require more than just a simple programmer. Follow along as I show you how I used the Autel IM508 and the XP400 Pro to add an Xhorse XM38 Universal Smart key to this vehicle and get him back on the road!

I miss when you used to post regularly. I learned a lot from you, and you were one of my favorite automotive channels.
The deepest dive in to key programming ever. I used to think using Forscan to erase all keys and start over on an older Ford was complicated. No more.
Probably my favorite way of generating keys. bmw, mercedes,vw/audi eeproming keys always makes me feel good. Its good money too. Dont think locksmiths are going anywhere or youre going to be up against a lot of competition. If you tackle the hard stuff and go with the flow of tech you will be the one who gets paid! Knowledge in this is very valuable
Wow. Impressive! No idea the ‘all keys lost’ process was so involved.
Why wouldn't it be?? If it was easy thieves would have a field day
Not all cars are this difficult. Thanks for watching!
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO Specially Dodges.. lol
We automotive locksmiths (actually one of my guys) had to make a key for the Toyota version. The interesting thing is the chip designation it used also is a Subaru designation but completely different chips. In other words Toyota and Subaru use the same chip letter but are completely different. He couldn't get it going using Toyota programming. He finally figured out that the Toyota model uses a Subaru immo and chip. We have never seen this before but this car is a collab. We had to order the correct FOB. Had a Toyota emblem but Subaru chip. I just spoke to him and verified he did everything through the DLC port. No eeprom work required on the Toyota version. He used an Autel 608 which had the same key functions as a 508. We would charge $600 for doing what you did BTW. Our cheapest lost key is $250. We also use about 90% OEM fobs and keys. We had too many issues with aftermarkets. We also do not Lishi. If the lock is easy to pull meaning no door panel we do that. If it involves more we get codes from NASTF or a code broker. I realize this is a side gig for you but we run 80-150 of these calls a week. This is all we do so we don't have time to Lishi and possibly have it not work and waste a lot of time. We pay for codes and that's built into our pricing. We are mobile only. Sometimes we get calls for duplicates and I tell the people it will probably be cheaper to go to a brick and mortar instead of paying us for a service call. We also stopped doing rekeys and repairs. We just do lockouts and lost keys. It keeps us busy enough just doing that.
Sometimes programming keys requires unorthodox thinking. Trying different brands versions of the same vehicle is sometimes a good way to get it to work. Sometimes going up or down a few years in the programmer can get it to work. It’s frustrating sometimes but I like a challenge. Thanks for watching!
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO You have learned quickly. The other thing you might run into is a Canadian car. We had a Toyota SUV late model and the owner lost the key. Using UHS' key finder it stated this was a push to start. Something wasn't right. Figured out it was a Canadian model. We have to do the before year and after years sometimes to get them going. If using an Autel on a Honda always choose no if it asks for a year verification. If you choose yes even if correct you will brick the BCM. Autel doesn't write correctly to Honda BCM's. Advanced Diagnostics Smart Pro writes correctly and will never ask for a date verification because it's not from the immo. It's the best programmer out there but very expensive and uses tokens. Our daily workhorses though are 508's and 608's.
What equipment do you use as far as programmers/scan tools?
@@GianLombardo Autels, Smart Pros,Smart Box, I think we have an Xhorse handheld that we never use, a few Chinese knockoffs. Interesting that if you have been doing this long enough you will run into a car for whatever reason won't program with the best programmers. Sometimes a crappy Chinese knockoff is able to get it done.
Really cool repair, Eric! I know it's a bit involved having to go down to the hardware level like that, but I suppose the upside is that it makes the car that much harder to steal without a key, which I'm all for.
Thanks for the information. I just started getting into cutting and programming. Have a manual defu cutter and Autel km100. I cut and programmed my first key yesterday for my 2010 dodge ram. Now I have to try to program the remote.
Well, that was EZ. Face palm. Oh the tangled webs we weave... Good job.
Thank you so much God bless you for this information
The legend strikes again top job 👌
Outstanding work, Eric. You da man!
Great job as always, prefect fix.
Great video Eric! I am looking forward to the next one!❤
Thank you so much i was so confused on eeprom key programming i didn't know why people were doing it like this but now it makes sense
Great share, very thorough as usual thanks!
Mis respetos amigo buen trabajo, que pases un bendecido dia
Always impressive . KEEP UP.
I don't see any insurance rates going down because of this technology but the cost of the vehicle and the maintenance is up for car owners.
I'm thinking how many mobile diagnosticians can do this? What kind of licenses do you need?
Good video! Learned a lot here.
Very informative video thanks for sharing brother
NICE JOB!!!
Good video. Thank you sharing
Awesome job
This smart box is the same as Toyota Yaris. Just wondering if you had tried under Yaris, smart key.
Sometimes it lets read immo data and back up, then generate analogue. But some smart key box doesn't work.
Also in some smart key module that IC 93C86 is GLUED solid, applying too much can easily burn circuit board.
Excellent video, thanks for sharing this.
wow your great job amigo , thks for sharing . dios te allude 🙏
Good job
Exellent. 👌
🔥 You got it bro!
Thanks bro!
crazy the owner who lost one key doesn't get it replaced and waits till they loose both keys.
Get yourself some hot air. That makes (de)soldering components sooo much easier and faster.
And couldn't you just use a clip-on cable to do the reading/writing without desoldering? That is good enough for most boards.
Thanks for the video btw. 👌
This was a great video, I can't believe the algorithm took so long to make you show up on my feed.
I have a question, you mentioned in the video that the dealer would sell the key for around 200. How much would that job cost total in dealer vs with you?
Cool dude
How did you know to select seiko in the autel?
wonder if they do the same soldering in the dealership ? (maybe they just replace the box and know the codes for the new one?)
No, they would so the less risky and most expensive option
Another super great video! I've been helping a locksmith for the past year and a couple months (working on the required apprentice hours for a license in Texas) and we have never run across a Subaru BRZ. I have several questions, so I appreciate your patience and help. 1) How did you know it was a Toyota immobilizing system and that IC300 was the only component involved (that's not mentioned in my Auto Smart 2021 books for the BRZ)? 2) The XM38 you're using - is it an XSTO03EN (I'm asking because the button configuration is different than my XSTO01EN boards - the buttons in mine are all in 1 column)? Where did you get the shells and circuit boards? Thank you so much for the in-depth video.
Grasias
Thanks!
We need more of your videos brother please
It's crap like this that keeps me from ever buying newer cars with too much computer control without a shred of logic.
Thanks to folks like Eric, at least some folks can get back on the road with their over engineered ewaste wagons.
Unfortunately older Honda and Toyota vehicles are just as complicated or worse. I just did a 2003 Toyota RAV4 and the process was identical to what Eric is doing in this video.
Moral of the story is to keep a spare key or two at home to prevent the “all keys lost” programming situation.
Damm, You must have been reading my mind! I was thinking exactly the same thing you just said! All these computers and modules and crap just make stuff harder to use. Eric is a Smart Dude and I Love his channel but this Shit had my head spinning!
Definitely an ignorant comment. Cars have had can bus networks for decades.
@@googleuser4434 I have been Drinking for Decades! Doesn't mean its a good idea!
@@googleuser4434 Ignorant comment...can bus has nothing to do with this key issue. It's an intentional design flaw to keep the customer reliant on the dealership.
Nice
Superr💯
I have learned a lot from you thru the yrs. thnx. for what u do. I have a 2009 fx35 with over 200thou miles, and runs good still, but recently it did something weird. It started up and then shuts off (when I put it in reverse) for a second, and then almost immediately starts back up by itself and i drove off and all is ok, even until now. This has only happen once, since, which is over 2 weeks now, and I drive it around with no issues, but I am still concerned, and nervous to drive it, far distance. Could you say what you think might have happened why it did the rapid shut off and automatic re-start
Great Video! I had a customer call for AKL on 2012 Subaru Impreza, I am assuming this would be the same scenario for me. Says EEProm Keys or BIU & Instrument Cluster. I have the IM608 Pro I just got a hot air/ soldering station gotta do some practice. What flux and soldering wire do you use? Thanks!
I’m in the similar situation with my 2014 brz but it is a key not a push to start with this method work with mine as well?
Eric what kind of scanner you recommend?
I can guarantee that you didn't need that. The KM100 does it without removing anything.
Brawo.
Like videos n good afternoon
Is it safe to solder wires to eeprom to read it or you must remove it
Nice work man
Impressive repair considering you don’t use a hot air station
That was all free hand
I have a hot air station. EEPROM chips are super easy to remove using a wide blade tip soldering iron. No need to risk heating the chip and components around it. I mainly use my hot air for MCU removal and installation.
If its not much to ask. I remember the video you said you went to get some training. I want to get into immo. May i ask where did you went or how did you get the training? Im interested man
Great Video, I use Toy-38 from xhorse but I never the model that you have. Do you have a link for that key?
How would u go about this if it was a blade key ? 2013 brz
Great video Eric.
Thanks for watching!
Does anyone know if on a 2016 Rav4 if the wireless key entry module (non smart key) could be bad but TPMS still works? Both my wifes keyfobs stopped working, Id suspect the receiver but Techstream shows tire pressures. Door diags dont detect issues or keyfobs.
Where did you learn this I’m interested
Do you know if Xhorse is going the autel route and requiring a VSP license with their tool?
Xhorse doesn’t care too much for NASTF. I don’t think many Chinese companies will be willing to restrict their sales to only licensed people.
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO I agree with you. We already belong to NASTF so no big deal for us.
👍x 10
Im trying to get intouch with you for a service on a ram truck
you need to get a hot air soldering station..
I have one, but eeprom chips are very easy to remove using a wide blade tip soldering iron. No need to risk heating the chip or components around it. I mainly use my hot air for MCU removal and installation.
Strange that there wasn’t a Gbox bench reading option, but I guess since it’s a Subaru it might not be the regular P4 of Toyotas
How much did you charge?
How much are the alldata subscription you are paying. Thanks
What is the price for the job
The owner had only one key and lost it. Then he proceeds to pay Eric for a complicated Eprom read and he gets ONLY ONE KEY, instead of two. I guess some people don't learn from their mistakes!!!
I wanna do it
where did you learn programming?
same as airbag ecu
keys are probably in the trunk or lost inside the mess. lol
"Hey....I just found the old key"........................
‘$200 for a key from the dealer’? Try double that around here.
I was referring to buying just the key. Not including programming. Thanks for watching!
Well, thats just great. You just taught every car thief in the world how to create a
key onsite and drive their stolen ride away.
Thanks a lot.
!
You think professional car thieves have no clue? The only thing this is doing is teaching guys starting (or thinking of getting into) in this trade how to go about doing this sort of thing. NASTF is working to address some of the complex issues regarding the use of aftermarket locksmithing tools. Thieves are always going to look for ways to bypass security measures. This is the least of their worries.
nobody would go through all the trouble, they'd just drag the sucker on a flat bed or tow, drop at chop shop and be gone.
majority of them are brute force type of thieves, then there's the pro top tier clowns, but they're certainly busy going after high end vehicles.
Looks easy in the video but to get to eeprom level is another thing and is time consuming. SO for car thieves to do this job require lot of knowledge and time.
Just starting video and Im gonna bet that dude only gets 1 key.
He was hoping to find his lost key. He even posted on the parks Facebook page asking if anyone found his keys. I don’t know if he ever got them.
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO The way you programmed it if he finds the lost fobs they will still work. This is mainly for your viewers. Most of the time on lost key situations and we tell our customers this. If they find their old key or fob it will also need to be reprogrammed as it will not work. When doing all keys lost it erases any prior programming. The way Eric did it the car considered it an additional fob rather than all keys lost. Some cars and it's rare, let you make an additional key when all keys are lost. 95% though that is not an option.
Not a diy..unless you get educated..equip..$$$$
There's gotta be a easier way like some code you get from a Russian guy on eBay
It's funny how the subject becomes so busy there's no time to record and edit....
