Lost all keys to 2008 Prius

So a locksmith provided you with another fob because the one is lost and the one that was lost obviously had its key with it the metal one and you got that cut and he got you a fob that you were able to get programmed to at least work with it in the slot so you can start the car and drive it? Depends on the software he used and whether he cleared out all the other keys and what have you I don't know what is software is capable of. I would think the original silverback fob should still work.

 

If the locksmith made a new key and fob that allows the car to be driven, with all previous fobs lost, he would have cleared all previous keys. My understanding is used fobs can not be reused. Best to call him.

 

You have the old far back in hand lights up when you push the remote button or buttons on the remote fob that you see the red light You try to slot it and start the car? There's your answer right there I haven't had the fully do this yet and when I do I won't be clearing out all of my other fobs just because one is lost because the likelihood of me finding it here on the property is very good probably in the drawer I try to mark them and all that nonsense but when you have five six seven of these things it can get a little crazy. I would just try to program another one to get my car so I could start it and work it with the knowledge that I'm probably going to find the other remote so I just want to add something so that I can make something happen while I need to which is now I didn't know you were forced to clear out all other fobs you could have like four possibly so I can clear out three of the four keep the one the factory one number one that came with the car or whatever still programmed and program up another one out of thin air however it's done.
