REMOTE PROGRAMMING (For 2008-2010 xB and Rav4 models)
Please make sure to read through the programming instructions completely before attempting.
All remotes that are expected to work for the vehicle will need to be with you in the vehicle before attempting the programming. Any remotes not present at the time of programming will cease to function until reprogrammed.
1. Enter the vehicle, close and unlock all the doors using the power lock switch on the driver’s door.
2. Open the driver’s door and then using the key within five (5) seconds, insert and remove the key from the ignition two (2) times. The rest of the programming from this point on must be completed within forty-five (45) seconds.
3. Close and open the driver’s door two (2) times.
4. Insert and remove the key from the ignition one (1) time.
5. Close and open the driver’s door two (2) times.
6. Insert the key into the ignition switch. Without starting the vehicle, switch the key to the ON position and back to the OFF position two (2) times and then remove the key.
At this point the vehicle door locks should automatically lock and unlock twice, indicating that the programming mode has been activated. (If door locks do not cycle automatically then the programming procedure has failed and you need to restart the procedure from STEP 1)
7. On the first remote you wish to program (we recommend programming original remotes first if you have one), press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons at the same time for 1.5 seconds, release, then press and hold LOCK for one (1) second and release. The door locks will automatically cycle one (1) time to indicate the remote has been programmed successfully. *NOTE* If the door locks cycle twice, this means the registration failed. You can repeat STEP 7 until the locks only cycle one (1) time. If the locks do not cycle one (1) time by themselves, or they stop cycling altogether, then you must repeat the entire programming procedure.
8. If you have additional remotes to program, repeat STEP 7 for all remaining remotes you wish to program (You can program up to 4 remotes total).
9. Once you have programmed all your remotes, exit the programming mode by closing the driver’s door, inserting the key into the ignition, start the vehicle, turn it off, and then remove the key.
10. Test all remotes to ensure they are functioning. If any did not program, restart the programming procedure from STEP 1 and switch the order in which you are programming the remotes.
