The Lexus smart key, and how we set one up.
A cracked Lexus fob is usually cosmetic, until the board starts moving around inside. Once the case no longer holds the circuit board snug, a button press can flex the board and break a solder joint, and a fob that only looked bad becomes one that stops working. Replacing the housing early avoids that. That is the job this shell does. It is the outer housing for a 4-button Lexus smart key from 2013 to 2020, with no board inside. We transfer your existing electronics, check that all four buttons press their switches properly, and close it up. The car already recognises those electronics, so in most cases nothing needs programming. Lexus made more than one fob shape across these years. Bring your fob with you, or send us a photo of the front and back, and we will tell you whether this case fits it or whether another listing does. If your mechanical insert is worn, we can cut a new one to the door lock while you are here. When a fob is dead even with a fresh battery, the board is likely damaged and a new shell will not bring it back. In that case a complete smart key, programmed to the vehicle, is the fix.
How to order. Call with the SKU. We confirm the price, the stock and the fit, then cut, program or fit it. Items in stock are usually ready the same day.

How it works, and what to know.
Before you call
- One listing covers 8 model years, 2013 to 2020, so we confirm your exact year and trim before cutting.
- This is the case only. Your existing circuit board, battery and chip move across, so it does not need programming to the car.

Can you program this key to my car?
If the FCC ID or part number matches your key, yes. We program it at the counter or at your car.
Do I need the car there?
For programming, yes. The key is paired to the car itself.
My key looks the same but the FCC ID differs. Will it work?
No, it will not program. Match the FCC ID, not the look.
Can you erase a lost key?
Where the car allows it, yes. We remove the lost key from the car's memory when we program the new one.
What ID do you need?
Photo ID, and the registration or insurance in your name.
