This worked perfectly for me on a 2006 Toyota Camry LE. I actually tried this method with another video, but it didn't work because I was using the valet key not the master key. Thank you so much for explaining that important fact. It's ashamed that dealerships literally rob people for doing something so simple.
We're here to make things easier and help you avoid unnecessary expenses. If you ever have more questions or need assistance, don't hesitate to reach out to us at help@tomskey.com. Safe driving!
Worked great for my 2005 Toyota Corolla. Used a generic key I bought online for < $10, had it cut for 99 cents, then followed your video to program it. Simple. The car dealer wanted $110 for a single key. Thanks!
I replaced the key on my 2008 Toyota Siena and the process was spot on. I took the key to a GMC dealer and they cut it for free and said have a nice day. The key was $12.00 on Amazon. What a savings over going to the dealer. Thanks for the video.

Will this work for a 2007 Toyota Carolla >>?>

The programmer worked like a charm for my 2008 Tundra. Quick and painless shipping both ways. Thanks for this great option for the DIYer to save money.
worked for my 2005 Toyota Camry - So happy about this - saved me a ton of money. bought two keys for $14 and using this was able to program them myself. Toyota wanted well over $100 for 1 key to cut and program - Walmart said they could get me a key and program it for $60. This video saved me so much and it was spot on! Thank you so much!!!!

I lost my spare key for my 2007 HIghlander Hybrid. Dealer wanted $260 for a new one, including programming. Best price I could find was the Bulb and Battery store at $110. I bought the blank on Amazon for $7, programmed it per your info, got it cut for $15, and it WORKS! Thank you SO much for sharing this info! I just sent a $20 tip your way.
HI Mark, You are very welcome! We are so happy to help you through our simple, fast, and easy solution for getting a new key for your vehicle. Thank you for trusting us.
Unfortunately didn't work for my toyota auris 2010!!😢
This worked on the key I purchased elsewhere, when the vendor's instructions did not. It worked first time no problems. A thousand thanks. 2008 Toyota Solara
Hey Mike, your technic didn’t work for my FJ cruiser. Yet it put me on the right path. The sequences needed to program my key was different. So thanks a lot.
What year is your fj? About to try and duplicate.
Worked great on my 2007 Tacoma. Bought generic key from Ebay and cut at local hardware store. Thanks for the great tip!
Great to hear!
Hmm, this didn’t work on my 2007 Tacoma… maybe too many keys programmed by previous owners? Not sure.
This was the only video that worked with my 2005 Toyota Matrix. I appreciate the additional info that you supplied that explained some of the logic, as that was helpful over and above just simply following steps 1 thru 4, etc. Good job!

Works on mine too.
Thank you for making this video. I couldn't find the flashing light on my Yaris, possibly because it's got a different audio than the original. Regardless, I just followed your instructions and left the key in for more than a minute at the end.
It now turns the car on!
I had previously followed a set of instructions that did the same procedure with Pressing the accelerator and brake pads, it didn't work.
I have a 2010 Toyota Matrix Base(no power anything) used the programmer with factory blank Toyota keys and it worked flawlessly. Totally recommend this rather than paying the dealership or a locksmith. Total cost of 2 new keys was less than just buying 1 from the dealership without programming.
We appreciate you sharing your great experience using our solution. Thank you for trusting us.
@@TomahawkDIY, I ordered 2 keys from Amazon for my 2007 Toyota Camry and got the key code from the dealership by showing them my title, and they cut them for me.
At this point, I just want to unlock the steering wheel. The car's been sitting for more than a year and the battery's dead. Is that why I can't get the key to turn even to accessory, or did they cut them wrong? 😮
Thank U so much. I just bought an 08 Sienna..following all the U tube videos with no luck programming my Amazon keys....after watching your video, I only have a valet key. Crap.
Hi Mike, if you have a valet key and no master key, we might be able to help you, pls reach out email help@tomskey.com so we can assist you
I was doing it with the master copy no wonder its not working! THANK YOU! the other tutorials dont tell u how to properly identify it
Come check out my company if you run into more trouble. TomsKey.com
after you program the remote you also have to program the transponder chip on my 2006 scion. i used the info from this video, but when you insert the new key you have to wait 1 minute then turn the key to the on position and watch the light to stay off other than that worked like a charm. thank you I did 4 keys
Worked like a charm on my 2006 4Runner Sport. 1 caveat for me though, my light did not stop blinking but the key did work to start my vehicle
The video was a great help in programming my keys. I have a 2011 Tacoma TRD Off road. .....Word to the wise......Have your keys cut at a reputable locksmith. I programmed a key and had it cut at Parkrose Hardware (Ace affiliate) and the key would not work because it was cut too deep. I left and had the second key cut at a local locksmith and it worked like a charm. Spend a couple extra bucks on the locksmith or buy another key!
+scribbler GTO great point!
Could not get it to work on my 2010 Tacoma TRD
@@wdbowers what did you end up doing?
just did it on Sienna 2009 , bought key for $7 from eBay .. works just fine thanks
This is a great video for those who are about to duplicate their master key to secondary key. But better if you may upload some video in the same instructions manner in which you should demonstrate how to program a key when all keys lost.
✌🏿Programmed 2 keys for my wife's 2006 Toyota Sienna worked perfectly... Now i just have to go get da key cut. Good lookin out my guy! 👍🏿

Needed a new key for a Toyota Yaris and had it cut at the local locksmith. I also bought a transponder from e-bay and put them together and used your method to program it. Worked first time. Thank you for the info.
What year is your Toyota Yaris?
@@CHEKPNT 2008
Thanks I'm about to try it on a 2008 Yaris😊
Yes, it worked for me on a 2005 toyota corolla, 4D-67 transponder chip, in 04/2024
Glad to hear that it worked for your 2005 Toyota Corolla. If you have any more questions or need assistance in the future, don't hesitate to reach out. Safe travels!
Hi My key is different for a different year. My car key is the (4C) version and also my car is the 01' Toyota Highlander. With that being said, I got my keys at amazon for 2 keys for 14.95 plus tax & it came to 16$. Next was the 1st fun part was getting it cut.
NO home Depot. No AutoZone. Didnt try Oreiley or Ace. I googled "car cut key" & I went to a locksmith place. The place charged 5$ per key I had 2. & cuz he was generous & fast I gave him 2$ tip. So together it was 16+12=28$ all together.
Next I did these steps & it NEVER worked so again I googled it and I laughed cuz I never thought it would work like a GTA cheat code. So here they are
-insert main key in ignition
-Press accelerator (gas) pedal 5×
-Press Brake Pedal 6×
-remove main key & insert new fob key
-Press Accelerator pedal 1×
-Car emergency will flash for 1 min until no more.
-Once it's all clear, your key is set & start it up.
Worked great on 2005 toyota matrix. Had to change ignition cylinder. First programmed new keys in old ignition then swapped out the cylinder. Good as new. Was going to have a locksmith do the keys for $185 before finding this video. Thank you!
Worked 1st try on 2007 Rav 4 Base model 4 cyl w/3rd row!!! Thank you!!!!!
Which one?
Worked the first time in my 2005 Toyota 4RUNNER. Key blanks on Amazon were $17 for 2 of them. NAPA cut them for free.
This worked beautifully on a 2007 Toyota sienna. Your checks for master key were right on. Unfortunately my master key won't open the glove box or pass. door. Assume new keys were programmed at some point. The key I copied did shut off the security light. Many thanks and all the best.
Worked perfectly on my Yaris 2007

Hi Tom,
Your video seems to be very easy to follow. Thank you for sharing.
Can we still program the chip from a copy if there is no master key and only a copy exists? If so, how?
Hi, you need a master key to make a spare key for your Toyota. Do you have a valet key? Pls. email us at help@tomskey.com and tell us about your vehicle info, we might be able to help you.
Was able to program key. Thank you.

2007 4Runner Limited - worked perfectly - THANKS!
I'm glad I watched the video , I just bought a replacement ECU from flagship1 and was wondering what the blank was for; guess what? I do now! Thanks.
It worked for my 2007 Highlander hybrid. My key had the "dot" mark. It didn't work the first two times. On the third try, the programming worked at the 1:45 time mark. So it takes awhile so leave the new key in there for awhile to give it time to program.

turn off the music
agree please use music at the beginning if you want but once you get to conveying information do not have music going. good video btw...
Well I bought generic keys with dot to match my 08 Tacoma XRUNNER and they wouldn’t program so I bought OEM toyota transponder key blanks with dot chip to match my master key. Still wouldn’t program with this process. Had to take it to locksmith at 45 bucks a key to have them program and Walla they programmed just fine. So not all transponder keys to all Toyota’s can be programmed this way. Just some info if others are having problems.
Hopefully this will work on my 2001 Toyota Sequoia 4wd limited and 2005 Lexus ES330..... Both use Metal Transponder Keys.
If you need assistance, reach out to us at help@tomskey.com, we're here to help
So, @Tomahawk DIY, as you can see below my first attempt worked perfectly. I decided that I would want a spare so I got another. This time though was a different story. Did it exactly as I did the first time but after 4 tries it wouldn't start it.
Is there a limit on transponder keys? This would be 3 total that I have now with my original broken key.
Any advice or insight would be appreciated!
Dude, thats was an amazing demo!!!

Thanks for taking the time to do this. Ever hear if it works on a 2010 Highlander?
I tried this on a 2010 Highlander with no luck.
What if your car is already reached to the limit of number of keys you could programe and now no more key you can add , is there still a way to add the key. ???????

Hi Mike, thanks for sharing your programming instructions. It worked on a 2005 Toyota Highlander.
Amazon note says 2009 Camry transponder keys must be programmed by dealer or locksmith. Cannot be programmed by consumer.
Visit my store at TomsKey.com where you can rent equiment to program keys yourself and saved money over dealer and locksmith pricing. This video shows how. th-cam.com/video/3hPh9BD_ZMM/w-d-xo.html

I tried on Camry 2011 LE but it’s not working
Can you please guide me step by step please 🙏🏻
It won't work because Toyota changed they vehicle computer. But I started a company to help you. Check out TomsKey.com

You rent out separate OBD-II devices...are those just for the remotes, or do you need those for the key transponders as well?
Hi, we do sell OBD II extension cable, pls visit our website tomskey.com to find your vehicle and to know more about our products. You may also reach out to us at help@tomskey.com, tell us about your vehicle info so we can help you.
Hello, I tried on my 2010 Toyota RAV-4 it did not work do you have any tips?

Thanks for posting this. Please don’t play music while you are giving instruction. It’s so distracting and louder than you are. Maybe you can redo this video and take the music out! That would be amazing
Thanks for watching and thank you for your suggestion, rest assured that we are making adjustment on our new videos.
Thanks, however, please advise which method to use for 2009 Toyota Corolla S model
Hi, great demo. I have to do this with a key that has the remote lock/unlock as part of the key - no seperate remote. Once you go through the transponder process, does this programme the remote function as well? Thanks.
No
Hi. Great video, very easy the way you explained it. My issue is I only have a valet key. What do you suggest I do at this point? Thanks. Bruce
Can't do anything with a valet key. Have to go to dealer, give them your VIN number (from sticker on the door jamb), and they will cut you a new key with the transponder built in - for $150-$200. Ace Hardware can make a transponder key copy for $70, but I think you need the master key. Check with them. From there, you can make your own keys by following video instructions.
hi thanks for the instructions. I couldn't get this to work on my 08 Highlander. the light keeps blinking.
+Thul-kifl1 Michael are you certain that you have a master key? At first I had trouble that sounds similar. Turned it it was because I had a valet key instead of the master.
Tomahawk DIY Yes I used the same key to open the glove compartment as well. Also my year is very different than 07. I really do hope I'm wrong.
Thanks for this video.
Is there a way to program a key (and key fob if possible) without having an original?
Or do I must get one first from a dealer/locksmith?
I have a 2009 Sienna
Hi there, you need a working master key to make a spare. If you lost all your keys or you have a valet key, pls reach out to us at help@tomskey.com so we can assist you.
Hi Mike. I was programming the keys on my 2007 Highlander but when I was almost done, I screwed it up. Don't ask... lol. But can I start over with this key or do I have to order new ones now? Thanks for your instructions.
Worked on a 2002 Lexus ES300. Thanks.
Thank you for the video
You say open and close driver door, what about UK cars? Driver on the right side, is it still driver door?
I've never tried a UK car. Not sure if the procedure will work, but if it does, I expect it will be the drivers door. In this case the right side of the vehicle. Let everyone know if it works. Good luck!
Hi Tom !! Are the Toyota Transponder keys better than the ones that are not? And I Noticed that on some Toyota keys they have a letter on them like a O or H or C what does that mean??....
