2008 Toyota Solara replacement key fob with no original from EZ Car Keyz Thousand Oaks CA
🔧 PRO TIP
The 2008 Solara uses Toyota's 4D-67 transponder chip, not a smart key or proximity fob. There is no remote, no buttons, no battery to change. It is a metal key with an embedded chip in the bow, part number 89785-08020 for the master key. If your key turns the ignition but the engine cranks and dies right away, the immobilizer light (the little car with a key icon) will stay solid on the dash. That means the chip is not being read, not that the starter is bad.

2008 Toyota Solara Transponder Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

A guy in Paradise Falls in Thousand Oaks lost his only Solara key somewhere between the sand and the parking area near the trailhead. Looked for close to an hour, checked around every bench, nothing. His 2008 Solara coupe was sitting in the lot with no way in.

I started with my TOY43 Lishi tool. It reads each wafer position inside the lock cylinder one at a time, giving me exact cut depths for a new blade without needing the original. Ten positions on a TOY43 keyway. Took about fifteen minutes to decode them all and cut the key on my mobile machine.

The mechanical side was done. Then the part most people do not realize exists: the immobilizer. The 2008 Solara runs Toyota's 4D transponder system, and with zero registered keys in hand, I connected through the OBD-II port under the dash, performed a full immobilizer reset on the 93C56 EEPROM, cleared the old key data, and wrote the new 4D-67 chip into the system.

Key went in, turned, and the engine caught on the first crank. He just stood there watching the dash like it might still say no.

The whole job, lock decode through engine running, was about 50 minutes. He had been quoted a tow plus a multi-day wait at the dealer, and that was before they even started on the key itself. This was done in a parking lot on a Tuesday afternoon.

Toyota Solara Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

I lost every key for my 2008 Toyota Solara. Can you still make one?
Yep. All-keys-lost on the 2008 Solara is a standard field job for me. I decode the TOY43 lock cylinder with a Lishi tool to get the cut, then connect through OBD-II to reset the immobilizer and register a new 4D-67 transponder chip. The old lost key gets erased from the system so it cannot start the car. No tow needed, no waiting on a dealer service bay to open up. The whole thing runs about 45 to 55 minutes depending on how cooperative the wafers feel that day.
Is a mobile locksmith cheaper than going through the Toyota dealer for this key?
Does your price include cutting and programming, or are those extra?
My 2008 Solara cranks but won't start and the immobilizer light stays on. Is the key bad?
Can I buy a 2008 Solara transponder key online and program it myself?
