Remote Key Problem

[Mohit]

Hello

I have only one key with Remote and it causes problem in locking/ un-locking.

I have to press the key for couple of times to get into the car or lock the car.

How can I get a duplicate key or correct the problem in existing key.

Many Thanks

Mohit

I have that problem too. Im guessing the Battery in the key is going flat otherwise maybe something to do with the transmitter is faulty.

Anyone know if I need to take tha key to Toyota to put a new Battery in, or can I change it myself? Just worried about it losing the code.

Please tell if we can change the Battery straight forward or we need to it get reprogrammed after changing the Battery.

I think you're ok changing the Battery yourself, provided you don't leave it too long after taking the old one out!!

Any further yay or nays before i can't get into my car?

I got this problem mines a orginal keypad hopefully is the Battery rather than keypad being worn due to use of it (2003 model yr). i wanna know if it needs to be re programmed if u take out the Battery, it was the case on aftermarket alarm pad on one my cars yrs ago that it needed reprogramming. i dont really wanna pay £150ish from mr t for a new keypad think thats only place u can get a replacement from or eBay if lucky

Changed the Battery yesterday and asked the bloke at Toyota. You can change the Battery and it won't lose the code.
