remote program fail
I just bought a 1998 gs300 and unable to program remote for keyless. I searched and found program steps and tried and got into the program mode but the door locks will cycle twice and not program remote. Please help.

Wow, I did not know that club lexus was so unhelpful forum. When I used to be on s2ki or any other forum a lot of members helped out. I guess club lexus is place for people to show off their vehicle and not help fellow club members.

On this note, are all of your door lock actuators working? In other words, when you use the power lock button on the door panel, do all doors lock and unlock? If they don't all work, the system will not function properly and may be causing the failure. I would suggest just taking it in. I think they charge like $60 to program the remotes.

nobody knows.
there's also tons of information available if you use this
your problem is either:
- you don't know what you're doing
- you're using the wrong materials.
- the ECU is full and needs a reset/flash.
you also just bought a 15+ year old car and didn't say anything else about it
how many master keys do you have?
are they of the keyless entry or transponder only variety?
lots of variables that you neglected to provide, sorry you didn't get the help you wanted with what little information you gave.
this forum has saved my *** tons of time and money on multiple occasions mostly because i looked for the answers and asked the right questions.

none of the door actuators worked at the time of purchase. all door lock actuators has been replaced and all of them are working. When I checked using the techstream there is no programmed remote to the vehicle. I know the remote is good, since i programmed to my friend's car and is working. yes i know how to use the search in the forum. i have searched and did not find anyone with the same problem as i do. next i did use the search since i was able to get to program mode and able to program my remote to a friend's car. so more information on the vehicle.
1998 lexus gs300 base model. black on black. l-tuned suspension and everything else is stock. there is no check engine light. the vehicle is bought from the first owner and is from a family friend. they lost all the keys but one master key. the one and only master key is from the factory with the vehicle. when i had access to teahstream i did reset all ecu in the vehicle.
hope with this information, someone will able to help.

For your information tech stream is the toyota lexus oem dealer scan tool. It is kind of hard not to be able to reset immobilizer on the ecu since there is big button on the screen reset all ecu.
