2002 RX300 - is the transponder part of the keyless entry remote?
I just inherited a 2002 RX300 and am looking to get a new key shell for the keyless remote.
Is the transponder part of the remote module or must the key shell have a transponder chip?
Thanks - new member here - looks like a great group.

I think I just found the answer
I took the key fob apart and tried to start without the remote handy - no go.
Put the remote back in and it started.

Shells are fairly inexpensive on eBay, I recently bought one for 8.95 and 4 bucks shipping. I took the old key and the new one to the Lexus dealer and they charged me 14 bucks to cut the new key and even threw in a new battery.
I had also gotten a new remote key on eBay ($90) which they were kind enough to cut and program to my car for an additional 14.
Make sure you get one specifically for your car.
