Lost your only Toyota key? Whether it's an older Corolla or a current RAV4 with Smart Key, Ben cuts and programmes a full replacement on-site — no need to have the vehicle recovered to a dealer.

All-keys-lost on a Toyota means a new key needs to be learned to the vehicle's Smart Key system via OBD programming — the only method, since a cut blank alone won't start any Toyota from the last decade. Ben carries this equipment on-site.

Locked your keys inside your Toyota? Ben uses non-destructive entry methods suited to the specific door and Smart Key mechanism on your model, getting you back in without any damage to the vehicle.

A spare Smart Key programmed to your Toyota before you need it costs a fraction of an emergency replacement — particularly worth doing given that OBD programming is the only route to a working key on modern Toyotas.

If a Toyota Smart Key won't authorise engine start, or a spare needs adding, OBD programming is required — there's no shortcut. Ben carries dedicated Toyota programming equipment to complete this on-site.

Toyota Smart Keys include an emergency mechanical blade for the door in case the fob battery dies, alongside the electronic Smart Key function. Ben cuts this precisely and programmes the Smart Key element in the same visit.

Toyota's Smart Key system uses encrypted rolling-code authentication rather than a simple fixed transponder. Ben carries the equipment to programme this correctly for your specific model and generation.

Smart Key stopped responding on your Toyota but the emergency blade still opens the door? Often a flat battery, antenna fault, or PCB issue rather than a full fob failure. Ben diagnoses the actual issue first, which usually means a cheaper fix.

A snapped emergency key blade in a Toyota door lock is extracted using specialist tools, without drilling out the lock where avoidable — a less common but still real fault on higher-mileage Yaris and Corolla models.

Most Toyotas from the last decade have no physical ignition barrel at all — Ben diagnoses push-button start faults, which are more often Smart Key or immobiliser-related than mechanical, and resolves accordingly.

For faults beyond a standard key job — body control module data issues, immobiliser faults standard tools can't resolve — Ben carries the module-level equipment Toyota's Smart Key architecture specifically requires.
