2001 Toyota Prius Transponder Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Her kid had just been discharged from the children's hospital and she needed to get home. Her 2001 Toyota Prius fob was dead in the parking lot. She pressed the button, nothing. She held it against the start button for the backup procedure, nothing. It was 8pm and she had a tired, sick child in her arms.
The dealer was closed. She called me.
I connected my IM608 to the OBD port once I got the door open. The IM608 reads Toyota's smart key system and identifies exactly what the car needs. Her Transponder Key, FCC ID , was a 3-button proximity fob. The old fob's battery had corroded the contact inside and the backup antenna was not reading the chip. I replaced the fob, programmed the new one, and tested all functions.
From her call to engine running was 45 minutes at $131. The dealer was closed for the night and would have been $308 plus a wait until morning at the earliest. She got her kid home, got the medicine sorted, and had one less thing to worry about before bed. When someone is standing in a hospital parking lot at 8pm with a sick child and a dead fob, the only thing that matters is how fast you can get there and get the car running. Everything else is noise.

“Tim is a hero. He programmed a master proximity key for a newer Volkswagen that multiple locksmiths refused to touch. He spent hours until late at night making sure every function worked perfectly. The skill level here is incredible.”
“Very professional and extremely affordable. The price was literally about three times cheaper than what my dealership quoted me. Fast service and no stress at all. Highly recommend.”
“A friend lost my Lexus key and he was able to program and cut a brand new one within 20 minutes. Arrived within about 40 minutes and was friendly, efficient, and quick.”
