The 2zr-fe engine swap guide - Toyota Yaris Forums

They haven't changed anything about it since then, it is still the same procedure for lost keys and the such. We used to do them all the time for customers. Not sure how so many of our customers lost all their keys, but we did lots. Some of the nuances of the newer cars might have changed, but I know we were doing the newer cars, too. Like 2014's new.

Not sure how it would work for a swap like this, but it can probably be finagled.

I hope I don't seem like I'm being an ass or anything, I just worked at our Toyota dealership for 11 years. Seven of those were as a manager, and I was one of the ones who would authorize key codes requests and stuff like that, I just wanted to give a broader set of options for dealing with stuff like this.

If a dealership is telling you otherwise they are probably just being difficult, or don't have any master techs that have access to complete wipes and reprograms.

We would also run into this when people would bring in a valet to try and program a new master key and they would have to do a complete wipe and reprogram it all from scratch.
