Toyota Locksmith in Washington, DC

Toyota keys, fobs and ignitions

Toyota has used transponder chip keys since the late 1990s, and many models moved to high-security laser-cut blades and push-button Smart Key fobs from the mid-2000s on. Older Toyotas are among the quickest cars to make a key for; the newest models need current programming equipment, which our vans carry.

Toyota lockout

Locked out of your Toyota? A technician arrives in 15–25 minutes anywhere in DC and opens it without damage. More about car lockout service.

Toyota key made

If you lost your only Toyota key, we cut a new one by code or by decoding the lock and program it at the car, so no tow is needed. Have your ID and registration ready. More about car key replacement.

Toyota key programming

We program transponder keys, remote-head keys and push-to-start fobs for the Toyota, add spares, and erase lost keys from the vehicle on request. More about key programming and key fob replacement.

Toyota ignition repair and replacement

On turn-key versions of the Toyota, a key that sticks or will not turn usually points to a worn key or worn ignition cylinder. We repair or replace the cylinder where the car sits and match it to your existing key when possible. Push-to-start versions have no cylinder; no-start problems there are usually the fob or its battery. More about ignition repair.
