trouble programming my gs300
I have been trying for the past couple of days to program a secondary key (keyport key) Car is a 2002 Lexus Gs300
I have been using the following two methods:
So here is my key (was the only key I received when I purchased it)
Is this a master key? I have seen stuff online saying that a master key is gray on top?
Also after the light starts to blink it does not stop for a very long time.
can anyone assist?
I have been using the following two methods:
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.
