Keys

Lexus keys aren't easy to replace. A professional locksmith is required to design an appropriate replacement that functions. Every lexus key replacement key is equipped with a microchip that needs to be programmed to sync with the immobiliser system in your vehicle.

Remotes

Replacing the Lexus remote or fob can be a complicated process and requires skilled locksmiths who have the right tools and experience. Some models require that the transponder chip contained in the key lexus be reprogrammed to function with the immobiliser of the car. The Lexus models use different methods to program these chips. This is accomplished using a special device which sends a code chip to unlock the doors or to start the engine.

Certain Lexus cars are constructed with a single unit which includes the key head as well as the remote. These are more simple to replace since there is no separate chip. This kind of key is also a bit less expensive.

Whatever the type of key, all fobs eventually run out of battery power. This could be a difficult experience, but it's possible to get your Lexus back in operation with a little bit of knowledge. Check out the owner's manual to determine which type of battery you require. Then, find an alternative. Locate a small hole on the inside of your fob.

Transponder Chips

More or less all new cars manufactured after 1995 have transponder chips inside the key head to disable the immobiliser system. The head of a key which is equipped with a transponder chip may be removed to reveal a metallic L-shaped key. A replacement key lexus or fob made with a transponder chip is a multi-stage process that includes accurate cutting of the replacement keys and programming the transponder chip in order to synch up with the vehicle's immobiliser.

Transponders are electronic chip that has Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) that has a set of windings (very fine wire wrapped around a tube) that resemble ones found in an electric motor. These windings form a coded signal that the car can read. If the code is correct, the car will start.

There are two kinds of transponder chip, the first is called the 80-bit, while the second is called the circle + (General Motors). The first can be reused, but has to be unlocked with a special machine to function on a different vehicle compatible with it. The latter one is more difficult as the old keys are often damaged, drilled through or discarded after key cases are replaced. They can be salvaged, however and then used to create a service key that doesn't require batteries to function.

Immobiliser Systems

An immobiliser system is a digital security device that prevents thieves from starting your vehicle. It operates by sending an electronic signal from your car to the key each time you try to start it. The electronic chip in the key lexus responds by transmitting a unique code that must match the one of the vehicle to allow it to start. If the codes don't match, the engine will immediately shut down to stop theft.

Modern smart keys and fobs are equipped with an embedded transponder that can store electronic security information in a format that cannot be easily copied. When the key or fob are inserted into the ignition, they transmit this code to the ECU. The ECU then compares it to the code that is stored in its memory, and activates the ignition system and fuel circuit if the two coincide. If the codes don't match then the engine will not start, even in the event that the ignition circuit is damaged by a thief.

The procedure of replacing the fob or key requires a multi-stage procedure that includes cutting the new key blade with precision and programming it so that it works with your car's systems. Each immobiliser system is distinct and has its own unique programming procedure. We employ Ross-Tech to ensure that the replacement key is programmed correctly. This will provide you with the highest level of performance and security.
