I have a 2008 4runner limited and this worked great even though the video says 2003-2007. Got the same flip key off eBay from the other video. SO HAPPY THANK YOU!!!!
For those of you having issues…..one small step that might be mistaken on how he worded this procedure: on the fifth key insertion, leave the key in! Then do the door open/close step. After that, take the master out and insert the new one
This works! Warning, most new, younger locksmiths will NOT cut this key for you. Find yourself and older and experienced locksmith to cut it and they’ll warn you that it’ll need to be programmed. Just so y’all know. This programming procedure worked in a 2005 4R limited fyi.
@@FML.P.J It’s because they want you to buy the key from them at a mark up and the. Have you also pay to have them program it. Your right, nothing special about the key.
@@synoladesignsboutiqueIf you don’t have a key for your vehicle then you can’t get a copy of nothing. You have to call a car lock out person. Idk wheat to tell you. I’ve never not had some sort of back up in my 20 years of driving. Sorry bud.
Thank you very much. It is very easy. The locksmith here in Chino, CA give me a copy of key program for 2003 4Runner. I tried it so many times, it didn’t work. 😊
Thank you I was able to add another key because I had only one and I was worried I could lose it, i followed all the steps it worked on the second try, Plus now my headlights turns off after 2 lock clicks.
I am following exactly what you did but the red light didn't turn and still blinking. Any idea why it keeps blinking after removing the original key on the 5th? I have grey key not black. Thanks
A basic metal blade key frome homedepot will never start the vehicle. The key must have a chip inside it to be programable/start the car. Metal blade keys from hardware stores do work great as spares for unlocking!
Not working. Have new OEM Blank cut. Q- ate you turning either key to Acc, or On at any time during the procedure? It looks like you have the new key in the Acc pos during proc.
is the key flash light supposed to always flash when the key is out? bought a 2007 4runner two weeks ago and it didnt flash until i tried to program a fob just like the one you have in the video. my fob didnt seem to program? maybe i missed a step but now the light flashes all the time until i put my master key and start the vehicle then the light goes off. But when the key is removed the light starts flashing again. Is this supposed to be this way? or is it still in learn mode since i tried to program the new key?
No, no need for any sort obd2 programmers or anything. Try the sequence again. It's very easy to miss a step or mess up the timing of a step. Try to do it exactly as I do it. Let me know how it goes
when i put the new key in after the solid light on the dash. it flashes but intermittant. not steady...one..one two three....one two...repeat?? idk what that means, but never stops as if programmed until i take it out..then goes back to normal security type constant flash. and of course stops flashing with original keys are in the ignition.
I just bought this key for my 05 4Runner. For some reason I cannot get the key to program to my car. I can get the solid light but when I insert the new key I get a rapid blinking light instead of one blink at a time. Any advice?
@@womackke how do you clear a programmed key? I bought a used 4run & I can’t get a solid red light so maybe it’s memory is full from other keys being programmed.
That’s a pretty cool key what is the link I just got one but its the regular FOB which I was able to program now I just have to go get the keys cut and program the additional keys
Hi everyone so after the new key has been chipped will it ever be able to get I chipped from the 4Runner? My questions is pretty much since these are some cheap aftermarket keys I just bought from EBay will they ever malfunction and not be programmed after awhile or is it chipped forever? What if you drop the key into water will it work again or will it short the key out? Asking this because I’m hiding it outside the 4Runner for spare/lock outs and scared that if it’s sitting outside for awhile or get wet it might not work? Thanks guys!
@@womackke ahh that makes total sense. Thanks for the quick reply sir. Just programmed 2 today. You should do a video on how to reset the key bank in the ECU just in case it’s over the 5 limit that’s stored in it. But thank you so much for the simple and straight forward instructions. You saved a lot of us time and money.
Not sure I understand the question. But if you just want to use the remote function you can leave it as is and just program. But if you want the key part to work for starting the car etc. You need to have the key cut at a locksmith
Saved me $70 to have it programmed! Locksmith was very doubtful when I told him I was going to follow a TH-cam video to program my key
Yes! Finally someone posted a sequence that works! Just made 2 keys for my 2005 4runner. Thank you!
This worked perfect. My 16 yo inherited my 05 4runner and I gave a "upgraded flipout" key. She loves it. Thanks!!!
Bro thanks for the easy tutorials, I just ordered the flip key fob off of Amazon and this video and your fob video were such easy processes to follow
Used it to upgrade and have 4 spares. It worked every time
Personally, thank you for making this video

Had a mechanic do a reset of the ECU then programmed the keys for about $160 and it started right up. Good luck
@@bdog711 why? Did you try this?
Just did it, and it worked well
Thanks for your hard work 🙏 I follow your steps on how to programming the key and the remote control and 💯👍 working !!!
Thank you so much for this!! Followed step by step and it’s working like a charm.
Worked like a charm, i was hesitant at first but it went through

Thank you so much! This worked! ❤ Saved me soo much money!
I typically never like and comment but bro. Thank you!
Another great video! Super easy. Thank you for sharing.
Sos un genio 👏. Me funcionó a la primera. Mi 4runner es 4ta generación motor Diesel 1kz, aun así funciona excelente.
Awesome. Worked flawlessly.

Thanks
I got mine today and it work flawlessly for my 2006 4Runner limited
Just tried it and worked! 👍🏻 thank you.
Haha I totally thought you were joking at first. Nice vid , good to know if I need to get a new key!
This work for me , it does have to be an original key . I used a key that wasn’t original but was programmed to start the car and it worked.
Awesome dude. Worked for my 08’ flawlessly
How does this program the chip/transponder to the car?Isn't this procedure just to get the remote door locking working?
Excellent video.. best so far ,it works perfect
Thank you. It worked for me

Thank you It worked yeah!!!
I just did this successfully on my 2008 Toyota forerunner
Does the trunk button actually open the trunk? I know the FOB I just got lowers the window
Anyone heard of a 2003 toyota alphard?Would this procedure work on it?Thanks.
I tried this with a general Home Depot key and it worked to unlock my doors but won’t work for starting it, does it need to have the dot ?
A basic metal blade key frome homedepot will never start the vehicle. The key must have a chip inside it to be programable/start the car. Metal blade keys from hardware stores do work great as spares for unlocking!
Does it need to be a dot chip key?
Confirm works for 08. Dealer wanted to charge $180, lol.
Ur amazing!!!! And I was thinking that I had 2 pay a locksmith!!!
Just ordered one earlier today. How did you program the buttons?
I made a video about that too! th-cam.com/video/dkH7MJHO8aE/w-d-xo.html
Also heres a video showing the key and how it works th-cam.com/video/unewA9H9MdI/w-d-xo.html
Not working. Have new OEM Blank cut. Q- ate you turning either key to Acc, or On at any time during the procedure?

Como saber el modelo de chip que usa mi toyota 4runner 2005?
Hi! By any chance do you know how to change the battery on this fob?! Thanks in advance
Thanks for making this video. TH-cam university to the rescue yet again
Lifesaver!
I tried this and it’s programmed but it won’t start the car. It only locks and unlocks, any tips?
Locks and unlocks with the buttons on the key or do you mean with the physical key
I'm having this same issue. Fob was programmed but can't get the key to start the car. Any suggestions???@@womackke
I only have the gray original key, not the black. Will this still work?
Question how you program the lock and unlock
You are the best 😂
Any reason or suggestion why after inserting and opening door and after removing the key, the the red car key light doest turn on
Ever figure it out?
@@jackarceneaux the only key that I have is a valet key and not the master key
Perfect job!!
Does the fob need reprogram first or don’t matter order?
Dosnt matter, and anywhere that cuts keys can do it. Not one of the automated machines

Yes it works that way, when you leave it without the alarm it blinks one you put the alarm it stays on.
didnt work for me. you didnt have a obd2 programmer plugged in to do it??
No, no need for any sort obd2 programmers or anything. Try the sequence again. It's very easy to miss a step or mess up the timing of a step. Try to do it exactly as I do it. Let me know how it goes

You may need to clear the keys, the car can only remember so many till its memory is full. Maybe 5?
Same problem for me. Doesn’t blink like yours :/

Well actually the key always stays the same, it is the 4runner that is being programmed to remember the key. So no the key will never change

How do I clear keys?
Dose it work if you have the secondary grey key?
I dont think so. Try your key in the glove box to confirm its the secondary
