Finally, I Got the USED Ebay Fob Fully Programmed to my Prius

I can follow the first 2 steps but the 3sd. I do not know any Toyota security professional. Any help appreciated!

Thanks

 

I am assuming that you did a SKS? Where do you get the techstream software?

Thanks!

 

Thank you for this info.Been searching the net for so long looking for some one who will say he has done it like this.Not dealer or some Big company.This is very encouraging.Pls i need this Techstream i am willing to pay for it i am new here i dont know how to P.M you and where can i get the Mongoose MFC thing? Waiting for your reply.Thank you

 

If you are trying to program a used smart key to have all functions work, you need Techstream w/Security Professional + Mongoose MFC. The barest minimum is $550 for the tool and a two day subscription to Techstream, or pay $1300 to get Techstream for 1 year and the Mongoose tool at a discount. You also need to be a licensed locksmith in order to be able to call Toyota and pay $40 for a seed reset.

If you are trying to program a new key, you still need Techstream + Mongoose MFC, for at least $550.

 

If you only need one time passcode this solution is cheaper;

I have a Prius gen 2 (2008) Only one key fob which I have used for a couple of years to drive the car by putting it on the key slot. I open the door with the physical metal key. Recently, I installed a new 3V. battery on the fob, activated the sks with the switch (under the dashboard) in the out position, but none of the wireless functions works... I know the car has the feuture. I remeber unlocking/locking the doors with the keybob... Not sure if the remaining fob is the master or spare... I had two initially. Lost one about 5 years ago... I am trying the "chicken dance" but with only one key, I guees is not the right "tool" I dont get the car to give me any feedback "lock/unlock" after attempting "reprogramming" The only thing I notice is the red lock icon some times flashing or steady.... Any suggestions? My goal os to get two keys fully functional. Or at least one. Thanks!

 

Sorry but without a fully working fob, a trip to a security authorized locksmith or the dealer is most likely required.



PS Because of your question and mention of the "Chicken Dance", I have assumed you don't have the equipment and/or skill to attempt the procedure that is the subject of this thread, hence my advice above.

 

Thanks, I am thinking it could be one if the sensors in the car. The key is probably good. I think this key did work fully SKS at one point in time. Each of the buttons in the key activates the key's tiny red light when pressed. Also, I find weird that the "Smart Key Status" read from the ecu with my OBDII Torque Pro. is allways ON regardless of the switch possition - in or out (under the dashboard).. By the way, after I sutdown the car and lock it, I can see through the window, the red anti theft "key lock icon" goes staedy for about 40 secs then stays blincking... Not sure if this is the normal "behavior"

True, I don't have the equipment nor the knowledge or accsees to Toyota's security site for full security programing of the key.
