Programming New Transponder Key For 2001 Ls430

[Marconi]

Received new cut transponder master key with programming instructions. Thus far, unable to disable immobilizer with new key. :( Any suggestions?

I have read some talking about the 98-2000 key programming, but most of the poeple said it is the same technoligy used , so it would be the same way.

read the atrical attached

and I remember found the same talk in one website , but cant' recall it now.

let us know if it worked with you or not.

I have used those instructions successfully for '98 LS 400, but 01 LS430 instructions are intirely different. Thanks for your response & I'll advise when I find the right trick.

I just did my 2002 LS430 2 days ago; I got a brand new transponder key and instructions for about $150, and then I paid $12.50 to have the key cut which you will need to do before programming.

Instructions:

- driver's door closed, key removed from ignition switch

- obtain 1 already programmed black key

- insert already programmed black key into ignition

- within 35 seconds of previous step switch ignition ON and OFF 5 times

- open and close driver's door 6 times

- remove black key from ignition

- within 10 seconds of previous step insert new key to be programmed into ignition switch

- after 1 minute immobilizer lamp (to left of steering wheel column) will extinguish

- remove key

- DONE

NOTE: a maximum of 5 black keys and 3 gray keys can be programmed.

If you guys need the instructions for programming the transponder (remote trunk and door lock) let me know.

I Tought I had done the above procedures in the correct sequence, but to no avail. I don't guess its necessary to start the engine when the ignition switch is turned to 'on'. I guess I'll just keep trying. Thanks for your help.

Latest instructions above works for LS430. Guess I just hadn't held my mouth right.

Yeah, I just got a 2003 LS430. Got the key to start the engine, but need help to program lock/unlock/trunk.

Thanks.

You might call around and ask if your dealer will do it. I ordered mine pre-cut from Sewell and spent a couple days trying to figure out how to program it. Eventually I just gave up and went to Lexus of Santa Monica where they did it for free in about 10 minutes.

I tried these ones and after 4 or 5 tries I've given up. I have a message in to my dealer to find out if they'll do it for free.
