How To - DIY Toyota Corolla Remote Programming: Part II

[@DIYDaveOK]

Here is a step-by-step list of instructions for this model year from CarAndTruckRemotes.com (not a sponsor): blog.carandtruckremotes.com/2015/11/05/2009-2010-2011-2012-and-2013-toyota-corolla-free-programming-instructions-for-remote-head-key-keyless-entry-remote-fob-alarm/

[@omartjane4640]

good morning, please I lost all my Toyota sensor keys, how can I start my car

[@johnny85er]

I have followed this step-by-step in our 2013 Corolla with no luck

[@DIYDaveOK]

Sorry Johnny, is this with a new spare key?

[@johnny85er]

@@DIYDaveOK no, original key for our 2013 Corolla. I guess it’s 80bit key encryption, not 40 and requires a dealership ?

[@DIYDaveOK]

Ugh, it usually isn't a matter of encryption length. If your original key won't start it, and you have no spare, you may have to go to a dealer or locksmith to program a new master key, and for that you typically have to have the manufacturer master four-digit PIN that was assigned to the vehicle when it was manufactured. That normally comes on a small rectangular plate with all the original sale paperwork or is taped to the original manuals. It frequently gets lost., or the selling dealer conveniently "forgets" to give it to the original buyers this forcing the to the dealer if all keys are lost. You can erase all keys from the immobilizer with some tools, but you typically cannot program a new *initial* (first) key without the PIN. I suppose if you have no way of starting the car right now you have nothing to lose by trying, but understand the risks if you go in to the IMMO menu, find an option to erase all keys, then cannot (for some or any reason) program a new one.

[@uTestTarget]

Thanks! Worked perfectly for my Corolla 2013.

[@DIYDaveOK]

Great to hear!

[@quangpod]

This worked on my 2016 corolla. My key and spare were not working. I assumed the battery died so I changed it. I assumed the spare died from not being used for years. I got one key to be reprogrammed. The other one I assume the battery is dead. Thank you Dave you saved me a ton of money at the dealership.

[@DIYDaveOK]

That's fantastic! Thanks so much for letting us know.

[@iriseteru]

You're a lifesaver! My 2015 Toyota Corolla never cycled the door lock during the entire process, but I followed the instructions all the way through and it still worked!

[@DIYDaveOK]

Awesome!! So glad it worked for you!!

[@matthewbelviz8230]

I tried doing it on my 2015 corolla, somehow it's not working, I'm not sure if it's the key (not oem) or I'm doing it wrong.

[@DIYDaveOK]

It's possible the steps vary slightly for a 2015, not 100% sure.

[@TyrantPanda]

Same, I'm having the same issue with my 2010. I feel like it might be an app issue. I was able to program a OEM key though ​@@matthewbelviz8230

[@Dreahsaurus]

Is there anything you did different it’s not working for my 2015 Corolla

[@chipservin2843]

Got to say thanks to Dave. I bought a 2009 Corolla that came with a working key fob and a spare fob did not have the module but the key part was perfect. Bought a matching key fob from someone in EBay, took the module and put it in my spare fob shell. then I followed these steps and programmed my spare key fob without a problem. I now have two working key fobs for my car. Have to say that pushing the light switch by the door jamb, instead of opening and closing the door, made it easier for me. Once again thanks for the tutorial. For those who have tried and did not work, just try it again.

[@DIYDaveOK]

@@chipservin2843 Awesome!!

Dave, thanks for the excellent step by step tutorial. I just bought a used Corolla with a dead FOB battery and this reprogramming worked perfect!

Hey my key fob stopped being able to lock and unlock my corolla 2008 i have tried multiple of these videod and none of them work i am very confused

[@DIYDaveOK]

Well, if you had a working fob and it suddenly stopped working, and no work relating to keys has been done to the car, I'd have to infer a problem with the transponder in the key fob...about the best I could suggest

[@misat3673]

Thanks Dave! Tried a few sequences that other Tubers posted with no luck. Your's did the trick!! (Note: my 2012 Camry did NOT audibly cycle mid-program and I had to run through the steps twice but it did successfully program the remote. Go figure🤷‍♀️)

[@thumpydumpling6179]

Very clear, great instructions! It took me a longer time watching the video than it did reprograming the clicker.

[@HB4o8]

I couldnt get my 2009 Corolla to get into programming mode, I followed all steps as followed and still had no results The security light just keeps flashing. Door locks never cycled. Any help is appreciated!

[@DIYDaveOK]

Hmmm if that security light is flashing thats a sign something else may be going on, like a problem with one of your existing keys, or perhaps all the slots for new keys are already taken. I'd give it a fresh try from scratch once more.

[@HB4o8]

how would i go about resetting the slots for previous keys? I believe there were multiple fobs before I became the new owner. I also went to a locksmith today and cut the new key, I was asked if I wanted to program it for $100 and kindly declined lol.@@DIYDaveOK

[@DIYDaveOK]

I believe that's highly dependent on the model. I think I'm some cases the tool (like a ThinkDiag) will tell you how many "slots" are occupied, but not sure about giving you the ability to delete anything. You must be sure NOT to delete the master key or you WILL run a risk of *bricking the car*. I don't think ThinkDiag or the older AP200's can handle a master key reprogram, as that may take the vehicle PIN that it may or may not be able to find if you don't have it on hand. Wish I had more concise news for you. Exercise caution with any key deletions if that's your problem .

[@TheStefanieperu01]

Awesome video. Will try this tomorrow morning can't wait. Just had a question I broke my original key. The black alarm part fell off but the key part I still have will this be enough for me to cut the new key fob blank I purchased and then follow these instructions?

[@DIYDaveOK]

For cutting the key, it depends on whether your key shop can secure what you have in the machine to use it as a template. Hard to say for sure. Thanks for the kind words, and for watching! Let us know how it turns out.

Try to do these steps before you replace the door control receiver. Got one from the junkyard for a 2010 corolla, installed it, programmed it and it worked. Put the old one in programmed it and old one worked too. Parts was 13 bucks so not that expensive. Have a back up receiver now.

[@116MOE]

Hi I'm trying on a 2010 corlla S but it doesn't cycle

[@DIYDaveOK]

Hmmm... unfortunately, there's a recurring theme that this either works perfectly (which seems to be the vast majority of times) or it stalls out at the cycle/finish process and darned if I know why. Where did you get the new key? Any chance all the key slots in the immobilizer are already taken?

[@116MOE]

@@DIYDaveOK I'm unsure as to where the key was gotten but ignition works. I tried doing the on off cycle twice incase the list of paired keys was full same result, no lock cycle to confirm it's ready to adda new remote. (Not sure what you meant by immobilizer)

[@DIYDaveOK]

The immobilizer is the computer component that records and authorizes keys. Typically, most Toyotas allow for up to (I think) five total programmed keys; the two issues by the factory and then up to three additional ones. There is the possibility that other remotes have been programmed and all slots are filled. I don't think the AP200 supports selective deletion of individual keys. If you're not sure where the extra key originated, you might consider getting one from a good source like CarAndTruckRemotes.com (not a sponsor).

[@rondebaugh]

It would be great if the directions referred to good key and new key...do you ever put the new key into the ignition?

[@DIYDaveOK]

@@rondebaugh Did you look at the instructions in the pinned comment?

[@lboswell4023]

Hey Dave! Good video. I’m trying these steps on my 2013 Corolla and get to the last steps. The locks cycle “lock/unlock”, but when I press the remote to test, it cycles “lock/unlock/lock/unlock”, and ends up not working. I’ve tried multiple times and each time end with the same result. Any suggestions??

[@DIYDaveOK]

Hmmm...that's strange.. The instances when I've had issues it usually boils down to timing, eg I waited too long (or tried the next step too soon). The steps can be *VERY* finicky!!! Thanks for watching. Give it another try and let me know how it goes.

Hey dave, thank you for the video! I successfully programmed two key fobs for my car, but the only problem I have is that after performing the remote programming, my key fob only locks the door, but does not unlock or open the trunk. I don't think is the key fob because it's new new, so I'm not sure what it could be.

[@DIYDaveOK]

You know, you're the second or third commenter in the last few days (weeks) that had had a problem with the second part of the programming. Do you have another key that does, in fact, unlock the trunk remotely? (Purely making sure we're not overlooking a problem with the lock actuator). I'm wondering if something has changed in the way the key gets written into the IMMO database that prevents the second part of the programming from working. I'm honestly not sure what's going on. I wish I had a better answer for you.

Now that one I just don't know. I know Toyota changed remote key systems over four or five generations so I suspect it is reasonable to assume frequencies changed, but I don't know that for a fact.

Will this work to reprogram my original key? I already switched the battery remote key and my original key still doesn’t open or lock my car?

[@mateocolorado768]

Did you try it ? Same thing happened to me.

[@DIYDaveOK]

I think you need an original, working key to program additional keys. The ECU stores all the key information internally, and assumes a new key can be programmed if a known-good key is presented. If your only good key has failed, even with a new battery, you *might* have to use an OEM tool (like Techstream for Toyota) to rewrite/regenerate all the secret key information and program a new master key. There are some subtleties there I have not checked into myself, so be very careful when dealing with the car's key memory. If you completely erase all keys, you could be left with an unstartable car, requiring a programming tool that typically (well, supposedly) only certified locksmiths have, and in some cases require payment of a fee to the OEM to have a new "master" key code written to the computer. The AP200 is designed, I believe, to have one good key in hand. Thanks for watching!

@@DIYDaveOK but the immobiliser part of key programmed fine. It is only the remote part of the key I can't get to program. Also, how would I check how many keys are programmed?

[@DIYDaveOK]

Sorry, my misunderstanding. Man, I'm not sure quite what to think since you clearly understand the process...beginning to grasp at straws a bit, but wonder if the battery in the fob is weak?

[@adamn5821]

@@DIYDaveOK I thought that too, so I went and got a new battery for it. The light comes on and everything when a button is pressed. When I do the fob program part of it. My car cycles the locks 3 or 4 times after I push the lock button for the final time. Idk why it isn't working. I thought I heard somewhere or saw somewhere thst if it does that it means the car is telling you it didn't work. But I can't remember now.

Are you reprograming this key because a new battery was put it?...I just put in new CR2025 battery and my key still not working so I am going to try reprogram.

[@DIYDaveOK]

No this was a new secondary key. We bought the car used and it only had one key, so we needed a spare. Thanks for watching!

[@RMcCue-zo5xd]

THIS WORKED!!!!

[@DIYDaveOK]

AWESOME!!

[@Migknight26]

Does it matter what key fob you purchase?

[@DIYDaveOK]

You must buy the fob that is associated with the specific year and model of your vehicle. That is the only way to ensure the car and fob are transmitting/receiving on the correct frequency and using the right signals.

Idk if anyone will see this comment this many years later. I’m able to do it all and the 3 sec hold works but after that nothing else works. If I hit unlock it will cycle the doors but nothing else works on the fob. Am I missing something?

[@DIYDaveOK]

I read all the comments if I can. I've seen some comments that in some cases what you're experiencing happens, but darned if I understand why. It worked for me as demonstrated. I wish I had an answer for you, but there doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason for when it doesn't work.

Hi Dave I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla and my key fob cracked and doesn’t hold the original key . I purchased a replacement fob that comes with key from the cars and remote website. Can I open the new fob and place in my original key and try to program it or do I need to get the new key it came with cut and programmed?

[@DIYDaveOK]

I think I would just program the new key and get it cut.

[@karpashimala6927]

whats the difference between this and using the dealership toyota stream software

[@DIYDaveOK]

Well, you'd have to buy a copy of Techstream (or purchase a limited use license, perhaps), but you'll keep the AP200 and only pay yearly renewals for the software beyond the free model you get (or did at one point at least). I'm sure that Autel worked to reverse-engineer the key programming software and wrote it anew for their AP200.

[@karpashimala6927]

@@DIYDaveOK there is OEM japanese usb to OBD 2 cables on amazon for the fraction of the price of the ap200. the software is easily avaible online too cracked.

Sir may i ask if this steps of programing the key remote is applicable to all model of toyota?

Hi Cool! Unfortunately, the steps don't always apply across the board. As the software for each car changes over time and across models, the steps change as well. Thanks for watching!

What key fob did you use?

[@blessedassurance850]

Im using a corolla 2.0, 2011, do I need to get a specific frequency for FOB remote of this model? I came across there were two types of frequencies one is 315mhz and the other is 433mhz for Toyota Corolla, or does the receiver of this model able to receive any response from any of these frequency?

[@DIYDaveOK]

I think the model year and make would be sufficient guarantee the proper type of fob.

[@greggeeslin6814]

Hey DIY Dave, So I have 2 fobs when I program 1 the other 1 disables and vice verse, how do i get them both to work or program both of them? Thanks Greg

[@DIYDaveOK]

Hmmm...sounds to me like you may have the maximum number of fobs programmed to the car, and when you program the last one the previous one gets displaced. That's my first guess at least!

[@YG-xz8rq]

Thank you. Just used it to program mine

[@YG-xz8rq]

Hi. I’m trying to program another one and it’s not working. What could be the cause?

[@DIYDaveOK]

When you complete the programming cycle, does the car respond as expected? What year/make etc are we working with?

[@YG-xz8rq]

2009 Corolla. It wasn’t recycling initially but it just did When I press the lock and unlock buttons together it doesn’t function from there.
