ok, just buy a key that you like off ebay, any 95 or 96 Lexus LS400 key will work and have it cut to match your "copy" key. and BEFORE you buy a Lexus remote, do this test.. get help and lock and unlock all 4 doors 10 times with the door master switch... ALL 4 doors MUST lock and unlock or the program will not work ... if all yours work then buy a remote and follow the directions.....

the program below is how you program the REMOTE that locks and unlocks your doors.

96 lexus key

1. sitting in driver seat, with driver's door OPEN, press lock/unlock button ON THE DRIVERS DOOR to lock all doors, then manually unlock driver door only.
2. Insert YOUR key in ignition, DO NOT TURN, then remove key.
3. Using the same lock/unlock button ON THE DRIVERS DOOR, slowly press lock-unlock in 5 cycles
4. Shut door.
5. Open door.
6. Using the same lock/unlock button ON THE DRIVERS DOOR, again slowly press lock-unlock in 5 cycles
7. With the door open insert your key into the ignition, turn to 'on' position (DON'T START), wait 5 seconds. Turn off and remove key.
8. Locks should cycle once (Car will lock and then unlock once by herself). If they don't cycle or they cycle more than once, do steps 1-7 over.
9. Now using the remote, push lock button, hold for one second, then release the button. The locks should cycle once. If not, start over and go slower.
10. Close the door.
11. Open the door.
12. Press the lock button on the remote. The locks should do a lock-unlock cycle.
13. Close the door
14. Press the lock button on the remote, the doors should lock.
15. Press unlock button and the doors should unlock.
you are finished...

95,96, and early 97's did not have a chip in the key

Thanks for this post. I snagged two remotes from eBay and followed the instructions and now am the happy owner of working remotes for my 1995 LS400!
