Can anyone tell me how to program a keyless remote on a 2002 Highlander?

Thanks

It's a pretty easy process but the process has to be completed with in 30 seconds start to finish or it wont accept the new remote. Here is a link to a site with the instructions for both RS3200 securitys system remotes and Keyless entry remotes. I hope it helps.
I suggest that you print out the instructions and review them before doint the actual process for best results. Here is that link. Toyota Keyless Entry Programming instructions

Good luck.

I have tried using the instructions on this page but they are specifically for a 4runner. They do not work for my 04 highlander nor my 04 matrix. Surely the instructions are out there somewhere.

Highlander did not have the RS3200 system.

Here's a link to the correct procedure

The following is a link to instructions on how to program a Scion remote. It works on a 2004 Highlander.

Just wanted to add my personal experience on my '01 Rav4:

I've followed quite a few guides which agree with this one, & had tried umpteen times following the instructions verbatim. It just so happens I accidentally did steps 4 & 5 twice & was the only time the car entered programming mode. Once I figured out what I did, this was a fully repeatable sequence.

In other words, the Toyota TSB instructions is WRONG! Since all of these vehicles are based on the same RS-3200 system, I doubt other models listed would have luck without my "mistake" above. Just don't want anyone else pulling his hair out during the night!

Have you tried this site? I'm not sure if it has anything different but I know they have programming instructions and even installation instruction for full factory security systems.

Hope this is of some help.

I used the instructions for my '03 Tundra and they worked fine.

I followed the instructions posted by mrlajoie for my 2005 Highlander Limited and they worked fine to program a new genuine Toyota keyless remote.

Note that these are the "Add Mode" instructions posted at the website indicated above by Jeff2004.

Thank you!
