Thanks for the input. I'll make a few phone calls around town and see what I come up with.

Scottsdale Lexus wants $75 to program a key. I'm going to try Bell Lexus now to see if they are any cheaper.

i believe so.You can try to and see if it works.
Keep in mind it might not work again in the other car even if it does not work when you try it.
keep us posted.

Help needed ....I lost my keys and got one remote master key from Sewell ...I tried programming following the instructions given and haven't been successful . I have a 98 gs 400 and the front passenger lock doesn't respond to commands from the electronic door locks on the car...would that have affected the programming and if so any work arounds ? Thanks

I can follow the first 9 and get the cylce of clicks, but nothing of the following really seems to work..
What security light am i looking for? I have what looks like an aftermarket LED with a small slot under the dash, but that may be stock, I dont know.
I drive a JZS161 which may be slightly diff, but the programming mode does work.
All help appreciated!!

1. Insert an already programmed master key into the ignition. Do not turn.
2. Press and release the gas pedal 5 times.
3. Press and release the brake pedal 6 times.
4. Remove the key from the ignition.
5. Insert the new key you want to program into the ignition.
6. Press and release the gas pedal one time.
7. Wait 1 minute. The security light will be blinking for this one minute. When it stops blinking your key is programmed. To end programming step on brake one time.
NOTE: Look for your security light. This light will guide you during the programming procedure. The security light will go off at Step 1. It will remain off until Step 6. The security light will come on and start to blink after Step 6 until the key is programmed. If the security light comes on after Step 4 STOP the procedure and start over again.
If you perform this procedure too slowly your car will not go into programming mode. If you can not get your car to go into programming mode make sure you are using a master key and not a valet key. If you have a master key then you will probably need to perform this procedure more quickly.
