The Toyota transponder key, and how we set one up.
Corolla, Camry, RAV4, Sienna, Tacoma, Tundra: Toyota put immobiliser chips in the keys of most models around this period, and this plain black-head key is the one many of them use. It has no remote, just a blade and a transponder hidden in the head. How do you tell whether your Toyota key is chipped? On many keys of this era there is a small marking on the blade or head, but the reliable test is the car itself. If a hardware-store copy turns the ignition and the engine starts and immediately stalls, or the security light stays on, the car is looking for a chip. Toyota allows a new key to be added fairly simply while a working master key is present. When every key is lost, the immobiliser data has to be handled differently, which takes more equipment and more time, and is done at the car. We do both. We cut the blade on our code machine, which means the new key is cut to factory spec rather than copying wear from an old one. You will need the vehicle, the registration and photo ID. Toyota ran several chip types through these years, so ask us to confirm for your trim/year, ideally with the VIN.
