Can someone help me how to reset/re-program my original key. It all started when the plastic casing of the key broke off and tried to use the original spare key wallet type with transponder and key dont go all the way in the ignition and key get stuck in one position but manage to get it out. Tried to put the broken one with the transponder close to it and will not start. Luckily i still have another original key that works. I have change the battery of the broken one and fabricated new housing made of brass and have tried the remote and it doesnt work too. Please help. Thanks
The brass replacement is gorgeous, but it may interfere with the signal transmission
I will disassemble the key and try again using only key along with the transponder without the case to see if the brass case have to do with it. I will update later
you can get a much stronger shell key case over OEM at Lowpricekeys.com for $16.95 shipped. They will cut the key, you just replace the innards. you will also need to provide your key code. I got 2 keys from them.
@Thomas1 you are right, theres too much metal that is blocking the freq./wave, I bored 1" dia. in the back side of the case and it works like a champ. Thanks to everyone.
LSBen, what was the ebay name of this seller? Could not locate it.
The name of the Ebay seller is OVNISF. The RX key uses the long key blade, whereas my LS uses the short blade. You can also search "Lexus Key Shell Remote Blank Blade Code Cutting Cut Laser Repair Long Short New "
I'm impressed how the brass key blade turned out. Looks like a work of art and is one of a kind.
