2013 Toyota Prius Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
A guy out in the Village at the Park area of Camarillo was in the Home Depot lot when he texted me. He had already spent twenty minutes reading a forum thread from years back telling him the 2013 Prius smart key was dealer-only territory. The dealer's website did nothing to correct that impression.
He still had one working fob, but he'd lost the other and wanted a spare before he was down to zero. He was on his lunch break. The car was right there.
I pulled up, popped the trunk of my van, and got to work through the OBD port under the dash. The 2013 Prius smart key system registers fobs through diagnostic equipment, and the process involves a timed sequence once you're in the programming mode. There's a countdown built in and you don't rush it. While that ran, I prepped the new fob shell and got the emergency insert key cut to the vehicle.
When the sequence completed, I walked every button. Lock, unlock, the remaining two buttons, and then the door handle touch unlock on both sides. Then I tested the start. The car saw the new fob without hesitation.
He watched the whole thing from about three feet away. Said he figured it would take at least a day at the dealer. It took me under forty-five minutes in the same parking spot where he'd been standing when he texted. The dealer route never came up again after that.

“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.”
“I called over 40 locksmiths trying to get a key made for my Audi A6 and nobody could do it. Tim made it easy, fast, and affordable. He showed up with a smile and got the job done without any stress. Absolute wizard with keys.”
“My Chevy key snapped while I was running errands in North Oxnard. He removed the broken piece from the ignition, cut a new blade, programmed the transponder, and tested everything thoroughly. The whole job was smooth and professional. Best automotive locksmith I have used.”
