Keys

Remove the fob to reveal an indentation with a circular shape that houses the metal key, pop the battery out (using the paperclip) and then put in the new one, making sure it's the correct way up. Clip the inside of the key back together.

Remotes

Replacing the Lexus remote or fob is difficult and requires skilled locksmiths who have the right tools and knowledge. Certain models require that the transponder chip contained in the key be programmed in order to work with the vehicle's immobiliser system. The Lexus models use different methods to program these chips. This is done making use of a special device that transmits a code to the chip to unlock the doors or to start the engine.

Certain Lexus cars are designed with a single piece of hardware which includes the key head and the remote. These are easier to replace since there is no separate chip. This kind of key may also be a bit cheaper.

Whatever the type of key any fob eventually runs out of battery power.

Then, pull the old battery out and replace the new one. Make sure to insert the battery with the proper polarity. Finally, you can clip the inside of the fob back together and re-insert the metal key.

Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are in the head of the key on almost all new cars manufactured since 1995. They are used to disarm immobiliser systems. The head of a key that includes a transponder chips can be removed to reveal a metallic L-shaped key. The process of getting a replacement key fob made of transponder chips is a multi-stage process which involves precise cutting of replacement keys and programming the transponder chip so that it can synch up with the vehicle's immobiliser system.

Transponders are electronic device with Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) that contains a set of windings (very fine wire twisted around a tube) that resemble ones in an electric motor. These windings produce a coded message that the car read. If the code is valid, then the car will allow you to start it.

There are two kinds of transponder chips. One known as the 80 bit, and the other is known as a circle + (General Motors). The first is reusable however it must be unlocked by a machine that is specially designed to function in a compatible vehicle. The second one is more difficult to use because the old ones can be broken, drilled or thrown out when key cases are changed.

Immobiliser Systems

An immobiliser system is a security measure that uses electronic technology that deters thieves from starting your car. It works by sending a signal from your vehicle to your key when you attempt to start it. The chip inside the key responds by sending a unique code that must match the one of the vehicle to allow it to start. If the codes do not coincide, your engine will shut off immediately to stop theft.

Modern smart keys and fobs come with an embedded transponder that can store electronic security information in a format that cannot be easily copied. When your fob or key is put into the ignition, it transmits this code to a receiver in the ECU. The ECU is then able to compare it with the code stored in its memory, and activates the ignition and fuel system circuit if they coincide. If the codes do not match, the engine will not start even in the event that the ignition circuit is short-circuited by a thief.

The process of replacing a key or fob involves multiple steps that include cutting the new blade accurately and programming it so that it syncs with your car's system. There are a variety of immobiliser systems used in different models and years and each needs its own distinct programming process.
