I got a Toyota Roomy van with one key, the second either remained in Japan.

I’ve been planning to fix this for a long time.And I ordered a key and amini vci Toyota techstream cable.

The key must be new or blank. To register the key you need to prepare a laptop with Techstream installed, amini VCI cable, an old key and a new key.
I registered with Techstream version 16.20.023.

Choosing Roomy

Select the Body module in the list of units

Select Utility on the left

Select Add key registration

 

The program offers to open one of the car doors and turn off the car.

Then the program will ask you to bring the old key to the start button – if the central lock clicks ok, then the new key.These operations take 30 seconds.– you need to have the keys in direct access.)

Everything, the new key is registered, it remains only to cut a new physical key on a blank.

Follow instruction here to bind kprog 2 with k518.

How to connect or bind KProg withLonsdor K518:

If it’s the first time to use the KProg adapter, you need to bind it with K518ISE.

Connect kprog

Go to the K518ISE home page

Choose "Settings -> Bind adapter”

And followthe direction to finish binding

You have to know:

One K518ISE host can bind up to 5 adapters

And the bound adapter can not be bound to other K518ISE hosts.

Once bound, no need to bind again.

Here we share users’ experience with those wanting to add TPMS sensors to their Chevrolet Corvette C5 Z06.

Background:

He recently replaced the Bridgestone Potenza RE760 tires on C5 Z06 with new Continental ExtremeContact Sport tires in the following sizes on OEM Z06 wheels (Frt: 255/40/17 and Rr: 295/35/1 so when he did that he decided to add TPMS sensors to the wheels and then enable the TPMS system in the DIC.

Here’s what you’ll need:
– Four TPMS sensors (he ordered these through Rock Auto. They are Schrader Model# 20117. Schrader makes the OEM sensors and these are the exact same as OE but only cost $20.79/ea, so the total cost was around $88 for all four)
–GM TECH2 scan tooldevice (i got a clone fromobdii365.com)
– A strong magnet, preferably round

So first you’ll need to add the TPMS sensors (Schrader Model 20117 or OE/ACDELCO# 25773946) to your wheels. Be sure to NOT overtighten the sensor nut when installing them. The torque spec is 62 inch/pounds (NOT foot/pounds) so be very careful. Once the tires/wheels are installed on the car, connect the TECH2 device to the OBDII port on the underside of the dash and then put the key in the ignition and turn it to "On”. You do not need to actually start the car.

Here’s a link that shows what to do:

How to adding Corvette RPO option codes with GM Tech2

And here’s a YouTube Video showing the TECH2 steps as well:

The steps are the following:

1. F0: Diagnostics
2. Select Model Year (Mine was 2002)
3. Select Vehicle Type = Passenger Car
4. F1: Body
5. Select Product Line = Y
6. Select Body Style = (1) Two-Door Coupe/Sedan
7. Select Transmission = Manual
8. Body = F5: Remote Function Actuation
9. F2: Special Functions
10. F0: Set Options
11. F0: Tire Pressure Monitor
12. Toggle the function "On” and then hit the "Save Options” and power off theTECH2 scanner.

Once that’s done, the next step is to put the DIC in the ‘Learn Tire” mode.

Here’s a YouTube link for that:

Add an OEM key to a 2020 Toyota RAV4 withAutel IM608successfully. Same procedure as RAV4 2022 (checkprevious post). Go control unit – keyless, then I can select backup immo data-back up through OBD, then add a key WITHOUT 3 lines data and pay for the code. If choose add a key directly, then the programmer will spit out those 3 lines data and ask for a code.

When backing up data, the dashboard will display engine has issues, steering wheel have issues,blah, blah,blah as the backup process going, quite nerve racking but once is finished, everything is fine.

You can if it is lost all keys, there is a choice of using apb112. But my case is to add a key.

After backup immo data, then select add key, then it will ask you if you backed up data or not, then select the file, then same old Toyota beep beep beep process.

Great job Autel.
