Automotive Keys 2009-2013 Lexus / 4-Button Smart Key Vancouver

Lexus owners with a 2009 to 2013 vehicle and a push button start usually carry this smart key: a four-button fob with lock, unlock, trunk and panic. It is narrower in its year range than the 2008 to 2016 listing, and Lexus revised its smart keys during this period, so the right one depends on your model. The safest way to choose is to bring your current key, or send us a photo of the back along with your VIN. What does a smart key need to work? Two things. The car must recognise it by radio as you approach and when you press start, and the hidden mechanical key inside must be cut to your door. We cut the mechanical key on our code machine and register the fob electronically with the vehicle present. If your existing smart key is acting up, a fresh battery is worth trying first. Lexus fobs with low batteries cause intermittent no-start and key not detected warnings that clear once the cell is replaced. A cracked fob, water damage or a lost key means a replacement. We need registration and photo ID, and if all keys are lost we originate one at the car.
