Key Replacement - Save vs Dealer in Ventura County

2020 Toyota Sequoia Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

A guy in Oxnard Shores flagged me down in a Home Depot parking lot on his lunch break. Not literally flagged me down, he had called ahead, but he was already in the lot waiting and stressed in that quiet way people get when their day is running sideways.

His 2020 Sequoia was sitting right there, locked, and he had one working fob left. He wanted a backup before the one he had quit on him. He'd been putting it off, and the dealer had quoted him an appointment several days out and a price that made him hesitate long enough to look for other options.

I pulled the service van alongside him and got to work. The factory fob, the one with the dealer part number on file, was his reference for programming the new one into the system. On the 2020 Sequoia, adding a key means going through the OBD port with diagnostic equipment that can talk to the vehicle security system. The car has a timed sequence built into the add-a-key process, so you do not rush it. You follow the protocol, wait for the confirmation, and then verify.

I tested every function: touch unlock on the driver door, touch unlock on the passenger side, the lock button, unlock button, panic, and the push-button start with the new fob inside the cabin. All of it worked before I handed it over.

He mentioned the dealer price again, sort of offhand, and I told him I get that a lot. He pocketed the new fob, finished his lunch break with a few minutes to spare, and drove back to work. The car never moved from the spot.
