Toyota Key Replacement and Programming Made Simple
Modern Toyota keys use transponder chips and, on many models, smart key systems with proximity and push-to-start technology. Here’s how we get you back on the road:
- Diagnostics and security check
- We verify your Toyota’s VIN and security system and confirm ownership (DBS-checked technicians; public liability insured).
- We scan the vehicle using dealer-level OBD2 diagnostics to assess immobiliser status and fault codes.
- Non-destructive vehicle entry (where required)
- If you’re locked out, we use specialist picks and wedges to open your Toyota without damage wherever possible.
- In rare cases where destructive methods are unavoidable (e.g., damaged locks), we explain options and costs before work.
- Key cutting and transponder programming
- We cut laser or standard keys on-site and program the transponder to your ECU/immobiliser.
- For smart keys, we carry out smart key programming and keyless entry programming.
- If needed, we perform EEPROM programming or ECU/immobiliser programming for certain Toyota systems.
- Testing and warranty
- We test remote locking, central locking, and start functionality.
- All workmanship and new keys are covered by our guarantee for your peace of mind.

A transponder is a small chip in your key that talks to your car’s immobiliser. If it’s not correctly matched, the car will crank but won’t start—or may not crank at all. We match transponders correctly and test everything before handover.

FAQs: Toyota Auto Locksmith West London
Can you make a new Toyota key without the original?
Yes. We can create a new Toyota key from your vehicle using immobiliser data. In many cases, we can also erase missing keys so they can’t start the car. If you’ve lost all keys, we may use OBD2 or EEPROM methods depending on model and year.
Will you damage my Toyota when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive techniques wherever possible. If a lock is already damaged or non-destructive entry is not feasible, we’ll explain the options and get your approval before proceeding.
How long does Toyota key replacement take?
Many jobs are completed in one visit thanks to our mobile stock and equipment. Timing varies by model, key type (standard vs. smart), and whether all keys are lost. We’ll give you an accurate timeframe when you call.
Can you reprogram a used Toyota key fob?
It depends on the model and fob type. Some Toyota fobs can be reprogrammed if they are “unlocked” and compatible; others cannot. We’ll advise after a quick diagnostic or VIN check.
My Toyota says “Key Not Detected.” What should I do?
Try a known-good battery in the fob and hold the fob close to the start button. If it still fails, there may be a pairing or antenna issue. We provide smart key diagnostics and programming to restore operation.
Do you cover Toyota vans and fleets?
Yes. We support Proace and Proace City vans, including smart keys and immobiliser systems, and offer convenient on-site service for fleets.
