🔧 PRO TIP
The 1998 Land Cruiser uses a remote head key setup where the fob and the ignition key are one combined unit. The factory fob runs a CR1616 cell, which is a thinner coin cell than the CR1632 people sometimes grab by mistake. A wrong-size battery will physically fit but sit loose against the contacts, and you get weak signal or no signal at all before it finally quits. On these late-90s Toyotas, the remote and the ignition system are separate from each other. The remote handles lock and unlock. The ignition handles starting. So if the remote stops working but the key still turns and the car still starts, that is a remote issue, not an immobilizer issue. Start with the CR1616 before anything else.

1998 Toyota Land Cruiser Remote Head Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

A woman who lives off The Avenue in Ventura called me on a weekday morning. She had a 1998 Land Cruiser she had owned for years, and the fob on her remote head key had stopped responding. She could still start the car and drive it. But the lock and unlock buttons on the fob were dead, and she had been walking around to every door with the key blade every time she parked.

She mentioned she had tried a new battery a few weeks back but was not sure she got the right one.

I pulled up to her place and she handed me the key. The blade was fine. I popped the fob housing and the battery inside was a CR1632, thicker than spec. It had been sitting slightly proud of the contact plate, making inconsistent contact. That was it. Swapped in the correct CR1616, seated it flat, snapped the housing back together.

Three buttons, all working. Locks, unlocks, all responding from across the parking area. She laughed a little and said she had been doing the walk-of-shame to every door for almost a month.

I also cut her a second key from the blade while I was there, because a 26-year-old Land Cruiser with only one working key is a situation waiting to happen. She had not thought about a spare in years.

The dealer came up in conversation because her son had suggested she take it in. She was glad she did not have to make that trip.

“We had one broken key for our Honda Civic and one working key for our Lexus. Tim came out and cut three remote car keys at a great price. All keys worked perfectly. Professional, courteous, and highly recommended.”

“Tim was GREAT. I honestly swear he must have had my keys made before he even showed up. The entire process was insanely fast, from the initial phone call to having the keys in my hand. No one will beat the pricing, efficiency, or outstanding service.”

Toyota Land Cruiser Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

What if I need a key for my Land Cruiser after hours or on the weekend?
Toyota dealer service departments generally close in the late afternoon and most are closed Sundays. If you lose your key or your fob quits on a Saturday night, you are looking at Monday at the earliest through the dealer channel. I work outside those hours and serve The Avenue neighborhood in Ventura directly. One call gets you on the schedule, often same evening or next morning depending on what the job requires. No tow, no wait, no sitting on hold with a service department.
How long does the whole job take once you are at my car?
Can you get to my car faster than going to the dealer?
My fob buttons work sometimes and not others. What causes that on a '98 Land Cruiser?
I found a used fob online for my '98 Land Cruiser. Can I just swap the battery and use it?
