Lost key (transponder and remote lock/unlock)

[shyeoh]

hi!

I just bought a new yaris 2010 model and shit happens - lost the one set of key (one with 2 button remote and an immobiliser built in)

can someone tell me if i can disable the lost key transponder without going to the dealer or replacing the immobiliser? i guess the remote lock/unlock is not too critical but just don't like the idea that my key is somewhere OUT THERE and it is coded to my car still. i read that i can program a new set of key myself by following the manual but not sure if i can delete out the code without the tester used by toyota.

thanks everybody!

To wipe out the lost one, you put the system in "re-write" mode. This erases all registered remotes. Then, you go into "add" mode and add your non-lost one back in.

If you look at page 107 of the Door Lock section of the service manual (posted in a sticky in the DIY section), the instructions are there.

Thanks Scott ..... now to actually do it and cross my fingers that it works (or my understanding of the manual is right!!)

Hi I have a 1999 yaris I've lost the only key to the car. There are no buttons on the key. Can someone please suggest the cheapest way of getting a new key. Without having to contact dealers for quotes
Thanks

Also is there a code on the door barrel or the ignition
