    Hello All, first day on the site and have a need to program remote entry keyfob with out dealer intervention. I mean I do not want to pay the dealer $140.00 to program a new remote in addition to the $120.00 for the remote it self. Tried a PepBoys remote programming, key in and out twice door open twice, key in and out twice door closed open twice so on ans so forth, no luck. Any assistance would be a big help. 2010 CrewMax 5.7

    Local locksmith.

    Check your vehicles transmitter code (can be done via sending your serial to Toyota's customer service email or calling your local service department with your VIN if you do not have a remote already). After confirming the FCCID you can order one from Amazon for around 15-20 bucks. The locksmith pricing will vary, however there has been some guys on here reporting about 20 bucks for 2 fobs.

    Unfortunately, any tundra after 2007 requires a program called TechStream. TechStream is the Toyota tech program they use for diagnostic and modification to the ECU inside the truck. This program can be purchased to program everything yourself however, it's a little tricky to use (if you go this route watch a few youtube videos on how to do it- also be aware it only runs on Windows XP). TechStream can be purchased with the OBD connector for around 20-30 bucks.

    Also, welcome to the forums! Make sure to introduce yourself on the "New Members" section as we'd love to have you stick around!
