How to Program a key fob on a Toyota, Lexus, or Scion with Techstream v18 - Tutorial

In this video, I show how to program a key fob for a Toyota, Lexus, or Scion. You will need first to install Techstream V18. However I can no longer provide a link for the software nor a tutorial on how to install it, since both KZbin and my website provider banned the link. So you will have to acquire the software on your own.

Thanks for doing this! I used this video and another to help me understand how to program my replacement smart key. You video helped me figure out how to use utilities to get to the smart key reg. Now I'm good to go!

[@BlueMoonshine]

I'm glad that it worked. Please, share the video!

[@fanzfanzilla]

Thank you for the video. Can I use techstream program the key transponder or is it only for programming key to lock/unlock key fob?

[@BlueMoonshine]

It works also for the transponder.

[@ish786]

Thank you for the video. I am trying to program my 2007 Camry and I do not see the Smart Key ECU in the list. I have also looked in Main Body and do not see anything for it. Do you know why it would not show up?

[@BlueMoonshine]

I'm not sure. Did the software automatically detected your car, or you selected the model manually? If you did it automatically, you may want to try to select the model manually and make sure the correct model is selected.

[@VinayakGovande]

I found this program extremely useful. Could it program key HYQ14FBX for 2022 toyota Venza? Thank you.

[@BlueMoonshine]

Probably, since it is the version that was released in March 2023. Full tutorial on how to download and install it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGbVpIOLn8SJoKs

[@bbrownatl2]

What is the type of cable needed? Is that hooked up to the car or what is that used for? Any clarification much appreciated.

[@BlueMoonshine]

Everything is described with details here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGbVpIOLn8SJoKs The cable is shown at 4:50.

[@jeansandmyshirt]

Can I use this to program 2005 nissan sentra fob

[@BlueMoonshine]

@@jeansandmyshirt No! This software is only for Toyota, Lexus, and Scion.

[@jeansandmyshirt]

@@BlueMoonshine would it program key fob for 2002 highlander toyota

[@BlueMoonshine]

@@jeansandmyshirt Probably. I can't tell for sure since I only have a Prius, but the software is supposed to be compatible with all Toyota released before March 2023 (and probably even with newer ones).

[@aprilnickloy4940]

I was asked for a code when downloading the software. I tried downloading an older version but it asks for a code as well.

[@BlueMoonshine]

No code will be asked if you follow this tutorial exactly as is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGbVpIOLn8SJoKs

It's strange, not seeing the same buttons as shown here in Techstream. I have Techstream 18.00.008 running; I installed it from a cd that came bundled with the mini vci cable. Same basic setup; a crack/loader/patch copied into the /bin subfolder and Techstream run from the TSLoader shortcut. It looks the same as the tiny gray window in your video and also says V16 instead of V18. Techstream definitely detects my 2011 Prius, but where my experience departs from what's shown in your video is that after confirming my car's setup, *the health check button does not appear.* I see all the car systems in yellow, and can even doubleclick on the Smart Key field, which interfaces with the car and shows 1 past troublecode (which of course isn't itself rrlevant, but proves that the car is at least interfacing w/ Techstream. From the tab 'Smart Key Live,' where the 1 past troublecode displays, it looks similar to your video but is also missing a different button, namely *Utility.* There's no Utility button. Maybe I need some additional mini vci driver not included on the cd to see these options? Hard to tell what I really need as I'm using an old laptop airgapped by disabling wifi...so no way to check online for driver updates....

[@BlueMoonshine]

I really don't know...

[@notapplicable1923]

@@BlueMoonshine Kudos though, your video was still quite helpful in showing me which elements were missing/not functioning properly in my own version of Techstream. Solution: In the end, I wound up uninstalling Techstream V 18.00.008 from the 32-bit Vista laptop, and then reinstalling a much older version, namely V 9.10.037 (it's out there and free, just have to hunt a bit to find it). I then copied and pasted the same "TSLoader" file that had come packaged with V 18.00.008 into the /bin subfolder of the Techstream installation files for V 9.10.037 and ran TSLoader instead of directly opening the actual Techstream executable file. Somehow, this worked - suddenly the Health Check and Utility buttons appeared, and I was able to clone two key fobs pretty quickly. My hunch is that newer versions of Techstream have been modified (perhaps unofficially) for x64 architecture and don't play as well with x32?? Can't prove it, just a guess.

[@BlueMoonshine]

@@notapplicable1923 Ah, yes! They are for Windows 10 (64 bits) and Windows 11.

[@BlueMoonshine]

@@036mtmax Then you did NOT follow the instructions. Watch the tutorial again!

[@nefarious6398]

sucks that youtube took down your video on how to download techstream v18, unfortunate that i didnt download the video to use for later, need to program a key fob for a 2015 subaru brz with no keys

[@BlueMoonshine]

Yes, I don't even have a copy of that video.

[@woodducc]

@@BlueMoonshine Do you still have the password to the RAR file? Can't remember but it was something simple. Thank you :)

[@BlueMoonshine]

@@woodducc I think it was "Techstream".

[@omarkhshi3442]

Does after markets keys work with techstream

[@BlueMoonshine]

I don't know, I never tried.

[@dimitarpavlov7086]

your tutorial on how to install the program is removed

[@BlueMoonshine]

Yes, as written in the description of the video, "I can no longer provide a link for the software nor a tutorial on how to install it, since both KZbin and my website provider banned the link. So you will have to acquire the software on your own."
