How to Program a Remote Key Fob for Toyota Tacoma 2005-2016

This is a short DIY tutorial on how to program a remote key fob for a Toyota Tacoma. My Tacoma is a 2012 model, but these steps work on many other models (2005-2016). The link for the remotes I purchased on Amazon is listed below. Again, thanks for watching!!

My Toyota dealership wanted almost $200 just for one. I paid $20 for two and thankfully because of you it works perfect.

[@REALmarktheshark]

Awesome, glad I could save you some money!!

[@wesleycureton102]

I've been trying for months to get my key fob to work went to the dealership and they were quoting me well over $600 to have a new fob reprogrammed I did exactly this and it works! Thank you thank you thank you you saved me hundreds and I have my key fob back!

[@REALmarktheshark]

@wesleycureton102 that's awesome, glad I could help👍

[@BruceWright-fd8cp]

Programmed a $12 fob that I bought on Amazon with with 19 year old son using these steps. His mouth gaped open in amazement after 1 successful attempt. Thanks for this video.

Thank you so much for this video! I've tried programming my fob numerous times before and was never successful. Your step by step worked perfectly 1st time!

Thank you for this great video. Worked perfectly on my 07 Tacoma. I really appreciate that you get right down to it and don't give the audience the entire genealogical breakdown of your extended family to explain why you made the video. Short and to the point. Just as these videos should be.

[@REALmarktheshark]

Right on, yes I try to cut down to the point 👍

Man’s out here doing the lords work

[@LadyBern]

Ok I read the directions online and thought people were pulling my leg. I am oddly baffled that it worked. Like this feels like saying "you gotta hop on one foot and clap twice." But thanks my fob worked again.

[@REALmarktheshark]

@LadyBern yes it seems like a joke at first bit it works!!

[@edcassano7575]

It almost sounds like a prank but it worked fine reprogramming my existing fob after replacing the ECM on my 2013 tacoma. Thank you so much!

[@REALmarktheshark]

Yes it is a rather weird sequence

[@lukebrowne7168]

Easy peasy! Programmed both remotes in less than five minutes for 2010 Tacoma.

[@divadnotleks9811]

Normally I dread this process but this video made this easy peasy

Awesome glad I could help

[@smy003]

Worked exactly as advertised! Thank you for doing it at a speed that I could follow along as I did it too. The dealership wants an arm and a leg for these things.

[@deriancaron4010]

I followed these exact instructions with my 09 Tacoma, and it worked like a charm! However, I do have a question about this. When I purchased my Tacoma used, the dealership just gave me a single key, no fobs or anything. I just realized that my Tacoma came stock with remote start as well, so I was just wondering if these remotes are capable of remotely starting the tacoma as well. Thank you!

[@REALmarktheshark]

I'm not sure on that question. Mine doesn't have remot start so I'm not sure if thats a special remote from the dealership

I don't know if it's because of my auto power steering wheel, but my 2014 1794 will not enter programming mode with that sequence.

[@REALmarktheshark]

@30smsuperstrat some things to check on, that I've heard people say in the past is make sure your dome light inside is off and also make sure you start sequence with door closed.

Thanks my Toyota Tacoma 2008 needed a new remote i ordered from where you recommend it and follow the steps and it really work

[@DougMartin-sn8zg]

Hi there! So does the key start the truck after it’s cut , and the key fobs work? Or do I have to program the key itself? In other words, does this just allow you to get in your truck? Or does it make the key work as in starting the truck. Thx!!

[@REALmarktheshark]

@@DougMartin-sn8zg is your key connected to your fob? My key is completely separate from the fobs.

Hey Mark the shark! I'm getting it to go in program mode after I hold the two buttons down then hold the one button down the locks keep cycling and it will not program.

One thing to try is open the door at the very end if you haven't already. Also make sure your map light inside is turned off. I've heard that may affect it
