Gs 300 1996 : Starts cuts off
I have a 1996 Lexus GS300.
I recently lost the only key I had. I then had a new key made ( without a chip). The engine,cranks, starts for a couple of seconds, and then cuts off.
Can you please help ?

I am not aware of these cars having a chip key option but if it is supposed to have a chip key and the key you are using isn't a chip key then that would explain your issue.

I own a 1996 Lexus GS ( UK Specifications), and am based in Mumbai, India.
The details of the Car are as follows:
• Model: GS 300 4 door 3.0 ltr
• Stock No: 141001
• Chassis: JT153JSE700121615
• Model Code: JZS147R – BEPQFW
• Engine No: 0445030
• Trim Code: LJ10
• Key No: 01333
I lost the original key a few weeks ago. I then had a new blank key cut, ( without a chip). The new replacement key starts the engine, but after a couple of seconds, the engine cuts off.
I am unable to resolve the problem, nor is the local Toyota workshop. There is no Lexus dealership in India. I am unable to determine if this Car came with a standard key or a Transponder / programmed (chip) key.
Can you help me solve this problem ? Would reprogramming the ECU be the answer, or would you be able to send me a programmed key ?
I would sincerely appreciate any help that you can offer.
Best wishes,
Rusy
