Toyota Yaris (Y Reg) - Key lost - Options?

Jan 22, 2006 2 Replies

As subject...



A friend came over for a night out and ended up losing her car key for a Y-reg Toyota Yaris.



She has a spare key - without the immobiliser chip, so could (once we get her home) actually get in / out of the car, and it could be used to cut a new key.



The real problem is with the immobiliser. Does anyone know whether an independant locksmith could supply and sync/program an key/immobiliser without reference to a working immobiliser chip?



Alternatively, are there any... alternatives?*



Regards


  • apart from the £300 that a Toyota dealer wants to look at the problem.

Yes - if the locksmith has the right equipment it can be done but the equipment is very expensive.

A Toyata garage could do it but I bet that would be even more expensive!

If there is no further assistance from here, maybe you'd like to post your question to the Toyota Owners Club members' forum:

use the Search facility there (top Rt. corner), using, e.g."+immobiliser+key".
