How to program Toyota Camry key and remote

[@Keirnoth]

Thanks a lot. For those of you using a Virtual Machine, I suggest turning the ignition on and THEN plugging in the MVCI into the OBD2 and then the USB. This ensures your MVCI will show up properly. Windows detects it as a USB Serial Port if you already installed the driver I had an issue with Techstream not properly connecting to the car. It would just sit there at Initializing USB connection. To get around this, I used the menus up top and picked "Connect to vehicle" and there was a submenu and I picked "Manual detection" My USB connection was extremely slow. Had to wait forever for stuff to populate. Took like 3 minutes after picking manual. After you do that, a dialog box will come up asking you to identify your vehicle. Make sure you know what Trim and key type you have. One of the options will ask you if you have a Smart Key or a Mechanical key (called w/o Smart Key in the options). After you get past that step, for me none of the ECU options were showing up populated. All were yellow, but despite that I followed this video's instructions and it worked.

[@DIYtimeTRD]

Awesome, thanks for sharing. I’ll keep that in mind. Would have never think of waiting that long.

[@BenHTube]

Thank you very much. Was able to program 2 keys for my 2007 Camry with this method. Saved hundreds $$$!!!

[@DIYtimeTRD]

👌🏼

[@robertkematick3933]

Awesome! Procedure worked perfectly for me. Getting the unprogrammed key into the ignition lock in less than 10 seconds was a bit of a rush.

[@RussLSmith]

Great video. Used a MVCI cable, Winows 7 Professional 32bit, and Techstream version 10 on my 2007 Camry. A lot of failures until using the above combination.

[@DIYtimeTRD]

Glad it helped!

[@BearfootWang]

Great video, I followed these steps exactly with my 2012 4-cylinder RAV4, and it worked perfectly! (RAV4 uses G keys)

[@DIYtimeTRD]

Nice!

[@craigcarter400]

Too bad the OBD2 interface cable is showing June 10th as the earliest ship date (over 3 weeks out). If I can find that cable locally for not too much more, I might try this instead of paying at least $60 at dealership.

[@west_park7993]

[@DIYtimeTRD]

I know, right!?

[@macculp981]

Serious question. I must be missing something here: A. Decide to copy (this software only works with the master key, so zero help if you've lost that) your ignition key. B. Buy a programmable blank. ($18 on Amazon.) Take the blank and the master to a hardware store to make a copy. ($0-$4) Cool so far, but here's where I get confused: C. Buy the recommended cable ($35) D. Pay for the 2 day professional software license ($65) E. Don't be an Apple consumer. F. Hope and pray you can program it successfully. Why would I not take the $18 blank to a locksmith ($40-$70) who does this for a living and can do it in 30 minutes? I genuinely want to be able to program my own key, but am unclear how this would save me time or money.

[@DIYtimeTRD]

Good point. It may not be worth it in some cases, but makes more sense if you already had the cable/software, or need to program multiple keys on more than one car, or when making copies of the $350 smart keys... Plus you end up with a dealer level diagnostic cable for future programming, customization, TPMS, breaks bleeding, repairs, maintenance,etc.

[@ivandagiant]

Thank you for this. Not gonna bother with this route. It’s dumb how expensive the software is for some basic programming, just exists as a middleman so the mechanics can charge you more. Guess I have to give in this time

[@Dolphin3-h5d]

Good point brother. Was gonna mention the same

[@dtnel]

If he brought it to this locksmith, I would charge you $150 because I have to cover my butt in case something goes wrong way I have to hook up the tech stream Generally, if it’s all keys lost, I charge $220 in a customer gets a remote head key in a transponder key If you only have a slave key, you can always do all keys, lost, and the new key and then add the old slave key back in as I just did it Oh on the 2011 which I’m working on it has a onboard programming method for the remote portion which you can do through a series of opening and closing the doors because even our aftermarket doors on some vehicles, tools won’t do it

The techstream software is only available for professionals to use. It requires a NASTF membership and requires you to have a VSC (vehicle security credential) number and password in order to download the Security Professional subscription needed for this software. I'm not sure how anyone was able to do this without a professional license. I just wanted to use it for personal use on my car since I lost the spare key and need another one programmed. It seems like it worked for a lot of people, what am I doing wrong?

[@DIYtimeTRD]

That one is for dealers and Locksmiths. Get the “Professional” license instead. That one allows you to make copies of your existing key.

RAV4 2010, dot on the original blade. Bought 2 keys from ebay. Seller said, chip is 4D67 and will work. Using the orange box smart keymaker. When you plug the obd keymaker, the computer goes into solid red SEC programming mode. Very difficult to get out of programming. In your clip, as soon as you removed the key, the SEC light goes off, but in mine, it stays on. I tried to turn it off by quickly turning the original key on-off a few times, and now the car will not start with the original key!!! All online instructions I found: All keys are lost, you must press the LED button constantly. Can anyone tell me where is the ???? LED button? There is a LED light on the keymaker, but no button to push. Any help will be appreciated.

[@DIYtimeTRD]

Valet keys wont open trunk or glove box. Yes, some stores are difficult sometimes. I had this happen to me several times. They have policies not to program keys that they didn't sell to you, because they can't guaranty it will work in your car. They are afraid that chip key wont work and you will blame them for it. You can ask to speak to a manager or tell them you wont blame them if the key doesn't work. If they still refuse, go to locksmith.
