How To Program Keyless Entry Remote Fob

Selected Toyota models allow you to program additional remote transmitters using a very simple method that doesn’t require any special tools whatsoever. All you need is a new remote transmitter that is compatible with your specific Toyota year and model, as well as few minutes of your time.
