Toyota Keyless Remote Programming

Programming a keyless remote transmitter on a Toyota / Lexus vehicle with factory installed keyless entry and alarm.

This procedure should work on Toyota's made in the late 90's to the early 2000's, such as the Toyota Solara, Camry, Tacoma, Tundra, Sequoia, Sienna, Highlander and Avalon.

This procedure will not work on vehicles with a dealer installed remote, i.e. with a service button / LED on the driver side of the dash-board, such as those with the RS3000 / RS3200 system.

Programming the remote involves cycling the locks and ignition. If the vehicle does not enter programming mode or the locks fail to cycle, it could be a worn lock actuator. Try cycling the locks manually instead of using the power lock button switch on the door.

This video was well done, and thanks to it, it took me about a minute or two to complete moving the guts of my broken wireless remote to the new ($10) shell I had ordered--- thanks!!

[hawkeyeannieful]

Watched and did this along with you, and worked perfect. Thank you so much. No telling how much toyota would have charged.

I washed my key less remote and I guess it erased the programming, I changed the battery and followed your programming instructions and worked! Had my Tundra remote for 17yrs and still works. Big Mahalo!

Thanks so much, my remote went out a month ago. I changed the battery and it still didn't work. I decided to come to YouTube and I found you. You've saved me hundreds of dollars! I have a 2009 camry

Wow!!! I programmed my key fob per your instructions, in 30 seconds for my 2000 Camry. Thank you so much your channel, honestly is awesome.

I've been trying a lot of ways to enter the programming mode but your is the only one which really works on Camry 2000. Thanks a lot!

Worked perfectly. I just want to add something, my drivers door actuator worked but was worn, so as I did the steps I pressed the electric button, and pushed the lock itself too to "help it out" and it worked I finally got it to program after having a new fob for a year.

Thanks bro! I tried five different videos and none of them worked until yours. You're the man!🎉

Fantastic. Worked beautifully first time on my 2004 Avensis for both my keys! Many thanks!(My only minor comment is: don't give up if the door doesn't lock/unlock automatically before you have to press the lock and open buttons simultaneously. It will still work at the end of the procedure)

[ericwietstruk]

Thanks.  The procedure worked on my 2000 Camry.  I purchased the remote on Amazon for less than $24.

After many attemps using google search.Found the right instructions here for my 2001 toyota 4runner SR5. Worked like a charm thefirst time! Thanks!

[rodthorne]

Worked the first time on my 2000 Sienna! Otherwise I'd have been stuck, since changing the battery after long disuse didn't work, it needed to be re-programmed. Thanks!!

[FrydriceTR]

Most helpful for my 99 4Runner SR5-thanks very much for taking the time to help others.
