This is the update note I posted for our FAQ: "I just learned in PriusChat.com from "galaxee" that the NHW20 Prius has a procedure, TSB SS003-02, that does not require ECU replacement if the keys or fobs are lost. There will be a labor and key/fob replacement cost but not the expensive ECU. The NHW11, an earlier generation, still requires ECU replacement." Bob Wilson | |

Good news on the lost key procedure. FOB's alone though won't be cheap on top of the programming labor cost though.

In fact, it might even be worthwhile to buy a 'blank' fob now as insurance in the event one (or both) original fobs are lost without spending the money to have the blank one programmed immediately. This way, if the car were sold/traded and the extra 'blank' fob went unused, it could be sold to another Prius owner and most (if not all) of the money recouped. | |
