Thanks so much for making this quick video - it worked perfectly in my 2007 Prius with over 320,000 miles (and counting! and it's the original engine and transmission!). I only had one key for the past 15 years and when my FIL totaled his car, he gave me his spare and I programmed it with your help. Now I have two remotes! Greetings from Maine.
You are AWESOME. I haven't tried it yet, but have a spare fob from my old Prius, and will try it as soon as I can figure out what's wrong with my remote system. It may be simple, hope so, but this is fantastic!! (My efforts failed this try - just posted today, one year later, and SUCCESS!)
Thank you, so much!! I washed my smart key in the washing machine. Didn't know whether this would work with a damaged key fob. Thought it was worth a try. Guess what: IT WORKED!! I now have a spare fob which will start the car. I still haven't tried to program the smart features (open / close door). Don't know yet whether that will work. Jus happy to have a spare to start my car. The old fob was from my prior 2006 Prius. My current car is also a 2006 Prius. THANK YOU!!
I don't know if running the key through the washing machine would actually damage it. It appears to be relatively water resistant. It might not even get wet inside in a front loader. Probably, a top loader would be worse. But, I'm thinking you could probably just let it dry out and it would be fine. You might need to change the battery. I would open it up and see if it's wet inside and let it dry. I noticed that the hole around the battery has a rubber o-ring which I'm assuming is to prevent water from getting in.
here are the steps. ** STEP 1 - program to use as start key old key in ignition 5 times then leave in open/close the door 6 times remove the old key put new key, security light blinks for 1 min will program new during this time, wait til security light stops blinking then take out key and open and close door ** STEP 2 - program to use as remote lock/unlock open door (no fob in) insert old fob twice with door open (end with fob out) close door open door close door open door (leave open) insert old fob once and remove (end with fob out) close door open close open (leave open) insert old fob, close door press power press power again press power a third time then, pull old fob out, locks should click press lock and unlock buttons at same time on old fob press lock and unlock buttons at same time on new fob then press lock on new fob
JusticeLawyer what if I can program the new key to start ignition but can not program the open/close doors function due to my old key buttons do not work anymore, can I still program the new key without my old key open/close buttons?
I tried this out and the new key was not recognized by my 2004 Prius. No blinking, nothing. Even tried the insertion and door opening several times and I had the same results. What would you recommend I do? Is there something wrong with the spare new key? It’s a used key from an old 2008 Prius I used to drive and worked when I used it about 2 years ago.
how do you know the new key works if you still have the old key in the car?? dont you have to take the old key out/away from the car to be sure you're only using the new key?
This programming is ONLY for being able to start the car with the fob IN the key slot. This does NOT program the smart functions. In other words the car won't sense they key in your hand or pocket and it will not unlock the doors remotely.
I lost my smart key and just got a new one fro. Toyota so it should be programmed to the car but the key doesn't start my car only locks and unlocks it. Do u no what I can do asap
I've heard you need to put a portion of the old keyfob into the new keyfob, is this true?? My old fob got damaged by some major rain but still partially works
Hi Dan, please advise how we can use the key to lock the car as well. I have successfully programed the new key on 2008 prius however the smart key system and lock unlock the door not working. it's very helpful video for all of us here, thank you for sharing !!
is there any way to reprogram the computer because do not have my original fobs. got one that only will start the 07 prius. The door unlock and lock dose not work. any suggestions?
i have a prius c 2014 non SKS, (fob 3 button blade all in one) i have ONE MASTER key. can i program a replacement (add a key) or do i need the dealer to code the replacement keys.
I have an issue I have the key that comes out the remote but lost the remote now I can't drive it, can I buy a used remote like on amazon or something and program it like u just did ?
this programming can be use in old fob from another cars. I try it and at the end the fob being programmed when I do the lock, my car answer with 2 cycles, but do no open door or turn off my car remotely.
Well, that's a simple trick even sounds a lot easier than the topics I've already read. But, 1st off, I can't find any other prius video by you in your list. Regardless, as I understand, this will only enable smart key operation inserted in the car while all other features will remain useless. Locks and starting without inserted are not enabled no remote features. Advertisers say they need to charge 1.3 man hours labor to complete the full transition for a used key, and they say used sellers are lying or not disclosing because, the ECU will not completely unlock a key that's been previously programed on another car. As if the basics are burned into a cmos chip that needs to be removed and hard burned. . .. Do you know the fixes for smart remote operation of locks, alarm, panic, accessory and starting?
I have a 07 Prius with a smart key, if I were to buy a used one from like ebay with same model of key (smart key) as a spare second key, can I personally program that used remote I bought from like (ebay) by following your video?
Hi have you found any way to lock and unlock your car? I have programed the key but it's only start the car lock system and smart key system not working.
very useful info , hi intereting, i know nothing of these , ive been looking at electric cars but they are to expensive so thought of one of these :) on a full battery if you drive carefully how long does the car run on battery , once engine starts how long will it run? also do you have lots of maintainance it being a petrol engine? any pointers would be appreciated, do you think its better to go totally electric?
Hi there, I followed your instructions and got it to the programing icon comes up when I pull out my good key. I put in the key that I'd like to program and it never stops blinking (I waited 12minutes). Does anyone have any suggestions?
hi, I have the same issue with my keys. keep blinking and never stops. I tried with two different keys purchased from two different vendors and the same error. If anyone know the answer please let me know as well. hmahaling@gmail.com

Very well explained, I just trued and programed my key in 1st attempt successfully, thank you so much, keep it up bro.
Dude!!! You're amazing!!! I was gonna buy a key from the dealer!!! The dealer guy told me 348$ +80$ for programming!!!! Thanks to you and TH-cam!!!

Thank you! Worked perfectly fine on my 06 Prius with a key fob from ebay.
here are the steps.
** STEP 1 - program to use as start key
old key in ignition 5 times then leave in
open/close the door 6 times
remove the old key
put new key, security light blinks for 1 min
will program new during this time, wait til security light stops blinking
then take out key and open and close door
** STEP 2 - program to use as remote lock/unlock
open door (no fob in)
insert old fob twice with door open (end with fob out)
close door
open door
close door
open door (leave open)
insert old fob once and remove (end with fob out)
close door
open close open (leave open)

then, pull old fob out, locks should click
press lock and unlock buttons at same time on old fob
press lock and unlock buttons at same time on new fob
then press lock on new fob
What if I don't have the old key. I lost it now need to program a new key. $270 at Toyota.
JusticeLawyer what if I can program the new key to start ignition but can not program the open/close doors function due to my old key buttons do not work anymore, can I still program the new key without my old key open/close buttons?

Will this work if you buy a USED key on Ebay? or does it need to be flashed or erased first? mine is a silver logo smart key, 2007
how do you know the new key works if you still have the old key in the car?? dont you have to take the old key out/away from the car to be sure you're only using the new key?

Doesn't work on Toyota Corolla Verso.
Anyone?
Where is the second part to this video
where is the second part?
good video. but you cant test the new key with the old key in the car. it could simply be reading the old key!!
Actually, with this type of prius, it doesn’t ‘read’ the key, it has to be inserted into the slot.
Doesn't work for me: I replaced shell of the broken key fob, after that it stopped working, the battery is OK, red light blinking in the fob, but doesn't start the car, doesn't open doors, trying to reprogram, no luck...
Hi,did you manage to program it?
Have same problem.
@@kolara78 no, I bought aftermarket but new key fob that I was able to program
@@kolara78 remotesremotes.com
I guess it comes with blank transponder?
Thanks for the reply.
It didn't work for me,the blinking key light never stops blinking
