2007 RX350 Key Identification
Hi all,
Just purchased a 2007 RX350 in Australia. Like many other second hand buyers, the car only came with one key/remote. The Lexus dealer in Australia has quoted $595 to provide a spare so I've been trying to source a spare on EBay which I can get cut locally ($35) and will attempt to program the car to recognise it using instructions found online.
However, I'm not sure exactly which model key I need to purchase. The marking on the back of mine are:
CLBT/C/245/2002
DENSO 1512V
and inside:
48080
01J17
The ones I'm seeing online typically have FCC ID's of 'HYQ12BBT' or 'HYQ1512V'. Neither of those markings appear on mine, but I'm wondering whether the HYQ1512V is the same?
Also, does anyone know which number refers to the transponder and which refers to the remote?
Any input appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe

Are you sure I need the scantool? Can the remote/transponder be programmed using a procedure such as?:

I have searched the whole web and you had the closest issue.
I have a car in Australia ,
This is an RX350 2008,
And i have bought a key from ebay ,
Trying to program the key as a remote was a big fail. though i can open the door switch with it and start the car.
I really want to use my car remote with the key ,
Did you come up with anything?
BTW- I do not have any original key to look into the FCC ID, but i think we have the same one also the cars are not of the same year..

It's tough to get keys programmed for an RX350, but it can be done by a smart locksmith with good scan tools. I was in the same boat, bought an RX that came with one key. I asked dealer to make me a Valet key as a spare. It has no auto lock functions or fob stuff and will not lock or unlock the glove box. But it was less than half the price as a transmitter key at my dealer. It starts the car and unlocks driver's door manually. All I really need in a spare key. Transmitter key at Lexus dealer here in Colorado: 360$, Valet key: 160$. Another route to save more would be: Ask your dealer if you provide the correct key that you sourced (from Ebay or whatever),how much would they charge to program to car.

Unfortunately not, I purchased a couple of keys off eBay but was never successful in using them to start the car or operate the remote door locks. There was a document floating around somewhere which detailed a procedure to code the door remote to the car. You've probably seen it? If I recall, it involved opening and closing the drivers side door a certain number of times in conjunction with ignition key position. I tried it at the time but couldn't get it to work and concluded the instructions didn't apply to my year model.
How did you manage to get your eBay keys to start the car? Did you use some sort of scan tool?
Cheers,
Joe
The best is to either have key programmed by your dealer or have access to Techstream (given the key has the correct immobilizer chip). Those instruction for a step by step procedure using the door, gas pedal, and key rotation have never worked for me regardless if the car is a Lexus or Toyota.
I've programmed over 10 sets of eBay keys for the fleet of Toyota's and Lexus' I own and maintain. 3 keys for my personal lexus and 3 keys for a 2004 RX330. Unless the '07 RX350 is a push to start, I don't see why there's so much trouble, the key is practically the same as mine. But the important part is to use Techstream as it streamlines the process for both the immobilizer chip and the keyless entry. Speciality locksmiths can also program it but these are hard to come by around me and the cheap locksmiths have no idea what they're doing.
