Both my keys' alarm button don't work. After ruling out the battery, I asked the Lexus dealer if I can get a new transmitter. They told me the key is only one part and there is some sort of chip installed in the car that is paired with the key. I don't know if it's reprogrammable. All the programming instructions I see on the internet are for later model cars to do that lock/unlock 5 times routine which doesn't work on my '93 GS.

Recently mine started to screw up. It locks just fine, but when you try to unlock, the car keeps relocking the car over and over again. Push the button again and it stops. Tried reseting the battery, tried the method above, neither work.

Were you ever able to reprogram your key to your 93 GS? I have a 94 GS with the original one button key remote and the battery in it died so I replaced it but now it won't work. I'm thinking it needs reprogramming. What did you wind up doing?
there is also a button to the left side of the sreering on the panel to turn the remote use of / on. check to see if it is in the desired position b4 using the remote,
