How to make a duplicate transponder key?
Hi guys,
I lost my only key for 2011 yaris. There is an engine immobilizer on it. So, I have to make a transponder key. The quote from dealer ship is around $400, I think it costs too much. Is there any other way to make it? Thank you guys! |

You have to have one of the other original "master" keys to add a new one and the Toyota Techstream tool is required to program the new key into the ECU.

Hi Scott, unfortunately, I don't have any original master keys. I bought the second hand car, only come with one key, but I lost it.

That will be a problem. I believe that without one of the original master keys the transponder key ECU has to be replaced with a new one in order to register a new key with no existing keys.

It's not the key that they are charging you $400 for. It is the Transponder key ECU (89780-52061) which is about $300 plus the replacement key (89785-60160), which is abut $35.

No need for master key to program new keys but u need to reprogram ECU by obtaining a 6 digit code directly from Toyota this will wipe the ECU old security and reprogram with new with and new cut keys don't know why they are charging u so much tho it's about a 15 min procedure with tech stream online with Toyota plus cost of keys and remote.

Yes I have done one on a sienna ..same problem person lost all but one key no masters .
In order to do this I had to log with Toyota and its full of security as in they need my name , blood lol etc after that I get the code that basically resets the whole security and at this time u can load blank keys as ECU is reloaded but like I said only Toyota employe can do this and one has to be verified . But this is completely different procedure from just adding keys with that u need master for simple add on of lost key with out special security protocol . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

They said to order a new key for $165, and look for code/cut/program/, totally about $400. I think it cost too much.

But yes the other code u mention is for key cut . All other is to reprogram the security.
