Camry :: No Key Transponder In 2003 LX 4 Cyl?

I have a 2003 camry lx 4 cyl .i bought this car for a family member last year.one of the main reasons i choose this year {other than price} was the fact that all of the camry's 03 and up have transponder keys. the vehicle has a remote start feature with some aftermarket alarm fob, installed from the previous owner. im not even sure what was done. all i found was a bunch of relays under the dash. i see no actual alarm functions , heck i cant even find the alarms brain or remote start brain.

I went to home depot today to get another copy of the key. the key-maker told me that there was no transponder in the key,just to be sure i had him do a $2 copy of the key. to my surprise the basic key copy turned the car on. all this time i thought this vehicle was secure enough that i didnt have to worry that a novice car thief could take my car away.

How easy is it to bypass the transponder key ? can a remote start bypass the transponder key altogether. Is it possible that the previous owner installed a ecu from a 2002?did he just pop a fuse? I am trying to diagnose what was done.

Camry :: How To Program Transponder Key For 2005 SE

Recently, I've been looking into making a copy of my ignition key for my 2005 Camry SE. I bought a blank on eBay, had it cut to fit my master key, and it works fine for locking and unlocking the doors. However, since it is a Transponder Key, apparently I need to program it in some way to use it for ignition.

I've been looking all over for instructions on how to do this, and have tried this commonly repeated method, with no success:

1. Simultaneously depress and release brake and accelerator pedals 1 time.

2. Insert an original Master Key into the ignition but do not turn it.

3. Within 15 seconds depress and release accelerator pedal 5 times.

4. Within 20 seconds depress and release the brake pedal 6 times and remove key.

5. Within 10 seconds insert New Key into ignition but do not turn it.

6. Within 10 seconds depress and release the accelerator pedal 1 time.

7. Now sit and wait for about one minute until the security light in the center counsel stops blinking and turns off.

8. Remove new key and depress and release brake pedal 1 time.

9. Test your key now. It should work if you followed the instructions. If not, you may want to try the following instructions:

To reiterate, these instructions have not worked for me.

Have any other 2005 Camry SE owners managed to program a key successfully? What method did you use?

Camry :: Program Another Transponder Key With The Gray Valet Key?

Bought the 04 Solara with just the Gray Valet key that has the transponder in it.

Valet key will start the car but not lock/unlock the glove box or truck lock.

Do I need a black Master key to program a new transponder key?

or can I do it with the Valet key since it has (I think) the same transponder chip?

Avalon 2005-12 :: 2006 XLS Transponder Key Programming?

I have a 2006 Avalon XLS. Great car. Came with 1 cut master key and 2 remotes. I bought two blanks off amazon with the right transponder chip and had them cut for $5. Now I need to use my master to program the transponders in the two new keys. Or to get the car to recognize the two new keys to start it. They just turn and crank right now.

Any way to do this without the dealer? Mine wants $120 for programming. I do have the black master key.

I have tried the whole master key on off six times and open close drivers door five times deal. I cannot get my security light to stay on to accept new keys.

What I want to know... is there:

➣ A way to disable/bypass the theft prevention system so I can use the non-chipped key in my ignition?
➣ a way I can modify my key to trick the theft prevention system into thinking it is a real key?

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: How To Program 2012 LE Transponder Remote Key

New owner of a used 2012 corolla. I only have one remote key. After digging through google and ebay. I brought a set of new remote keys with the known warning that I have to take it to the dealer for programming.

What tools to get to have this program by myself. It just cost too much over $150 from dealer just to program a key not counting over $250 dollar for the key itself.

Lexus ES 2013+ :: EZ-Pass Transponder Mounting And Rain-sensing Wipers?

Ever since I have mounted my EZ-Pass transponder my rain-sensing wipers do not work properly. The transponder is attached to the windshield with two double-sticky pieces of velcro behind the rearview mirror. Basically the wipers now only work on the lowest setting. On medium and high they constantly run even with clean dry windshield.

Is there a known good way to mount the transponder so it doesn't affect the rain sensor?

(I was driving when I talked to him and forgot the exact term he used (I'm old, and easily confused by anything post ignition points and condenser)

Camry - Transmissions :: 1995 - Clinking Sound From Front End / Camry Won't Move

My fiancee has a 1995 Toyota Camry that she uses as her work vehicle and yesterday the car started making a clinking noise from the front that I thought was a broken CV but after going to 2 mechanics we were told it was something with the transmission but neither mechanic did trannys so they wouldn't go any farther into it. When put into gear it there was a loud clinking sound that sounded like it was coming from the front driver side wheel and the car wouldn't move. Before spending the money and bringing it to the only transmission specialist in town I figured I would try here first because I have learned specialist usually means more money, especially when your the only specialist in town. Is there any common issues with transmissions that would cause a clinking or metal on metal sound?

how do I check the transmission oil on my 2011 Camry LE (2ARFE). I am curious as this car has 98K miles now and I cannot locate the dipstick for the Transmission oil. I got the car 2 years ago at 89K miles.

A technician once told me it's going to be a flush.

I only do 135 miles every week and I am located in Africa.

How do I check the transmission oil and how often should I change it?

Recently my a/c went out and was blowing hot air. I took it down to the dealer and they wanted 200 to even take a look at it so i said i would be back later. Today I went to a auto store thinking it was just out of freon but come to find out my compressor doesn't turn on. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping its something simple and small.

Camry :: Radio Will Not Go On At All

My radio was working fine one day--next day I get in the car, start it up and nothing--radio will not go on, at all. I replaced both fuses, which did not appear to be blown when I took them out, and still it is not working. What could be causing it? I am about to take a long roadtip and the thought of doing that with no radio is painful.

Camry :: Vibrations At 40 And 75 Mph

I am facing some weird problem of vibrations at 75-80 mph band.

I had steeles on my gen 6 camry.Went to americas tires & bought 4 rims with tires kinda package deal.They installed them.I love my wheels. Now,I noticed some vibrations at 40mph and 75 mph & went back to americas tire & happily did a free balancing for me.

Happy about this the next day while going to work I noticed the viberations at 40mph has gone but the one's at 75mph were still there. Took the car to americas tire & he said they did not install hub rings thats why the viberations at 75mpg.He put hub rings on all 4 wheels. But was disappointed to still feel the vibration at 75 mph.

So,took the car again to americas tire,they again did the balance & the guy told me the rear right tire has like some 9 ounce of weight difference which cannot be corrected by adding weights to the rims so will need to change the tire.Well he did that & was very sure that the vibrations wont be there again.

Thinking finally it would be over I took it for test drive & to my utter disappointment still had the vibrations. I did not feel any vibrations with my oem steelies at this speed.

About the nature of vibrations: it makes the steering wheel,brakes & the car vibrate I think in the front, the vibrations are more prominent at the steering wheel & brakes.
