🔧 PRO TIP
The 2016 4Runner uses the Toyota H-chip transponder (Texas Instruments DST 80 crypto) and the TOY43 keyway. The HYQ12BBY remote head key runs a CR2016 battery, not a CR2032. People grab the wrong one all the time because the 2032 is thicker and physically fits but warps the battery clip over a few weeks. If your remote range suddenly drops, check that someone didn't stuff the wrong cell in there. Look at the number on the old battery before you toss it.

2016 Toyota 4runner Remote Head Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Got a call from a guy pulled over on the 33 near the Meiners Oaks neighborhood in Ojai. His 2016 Toyota 4Runner, half the key blade stuck in the ignition, half in his hand. Said he'd already called another locksmith who quoted him for a full ignition cylinder replacement, drilling included.

I told him not to let anyone drill that lock.

When I got there, the broken fragment was jammed about halfway into the TOY43 keyway. Still sitting against the wafers but not turned. Good. I used the TOY43AT Lishi to work around the broken piece and extract it without pushing any wafer out of position. Came out clean, no scoring on the wafer faces.

Then I decoded the lock right there from the wafer readings. Eight wafers, got all the depths, cut a fresh blade on my mobile unit. The remote portion of his HYQ12BBY fob was fine since the buttons are in the head and the break was on the blade. So I just needed a new key body with the correct H-chip transponder, programmed through OBD using the Autel.

Whole thing took about 35 minutes. His ignition turns with the new key exactly the way it did with the original. No drill marks, no replacement cylinder, no second trip to a dealer. The lock looks untouched because it is.

“The dealership quoted me $600 for a new Honda key. EZ Car Keyz did it for $225, same day, cut and programmed at my house. Works perfectly. Everyone should know this is an option.”

“A+ service at an even better price. Tim was a lifesaver. I lost my original and only key for my Audi and he was willing to come to my location at 8pm the same day. He worked fast, communicated clearly, and made sure everything worked before leaving.”

Toyota 4runner Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

Why is a replacement key for a 2016 4Runner so expensive at the dealer?
The 2016 4Runner runs Toyota's H-chip immobilizer, which is a DST 80 encrypted transponder. The key itself, part number 89070-42660, is a remote head unit with the chip and three-button remote built into one housing. At the dealer, you're paying for the blank, the cutting, and programming labor as separate line items. 4Runner owners on Toyota forums regularly report dealer quotes in the range that makes you blink twice. I handle the same job on site with professional-grade tools for way less, and you don't lose half a day sitting in a service waiting room.
What exactly is a remote head key versus a regular key?
How does a mobile locksmith compare to the dealer for 4Runner key replacement?
My 4Runner key turns in the ignition but the engine won't start. Is it the key or the truck?
