96 ES300 Keyless Entry Programming???

Help!!
I need the key programming instructions for my '96 ES300. I have them for 1998 but I think they are different 'cause they don't work.

Hello. Did you ever figure this out! I have a 1993 and need the same info?

1993 KEYS CAN NOT BE PROGRAMED

1996 SHOULD BE AS FOLLOWS

UNLOCK DOORS- OPEN DRIVERS DOOR-INSERT KEY IN IGNITION & PULL OUT-LOCK & UNLOCK DOORS 5 TIMES W/DRIVERS SWITCH-CLOSE DOOR-OPEN DOOR-LOCK & UNLOCK 5 TIMES AGAIN-INSERT KEY IN IGNITION & TURN ON THEN OFF ( DO NOT START CAR ) PUSH BUTTON ON KEY FOR 2 SEC.-CLOSE DOOR-OPEN DOOR &PUSH BUTTON AGAIN ! THIS SHOULD WORK , IF NOT MAKE SURE BATTERY IN KEY IS GOOD.

2 Quick Questions. Does this method work for a 1995 ES300? And the second question is: does this work for a key that is not cut for the car? I have a different keyless entry key; can I simply follow this procedure, using the working key to turn the ignition?

Thanks

I believe it should. It does not matter on the cut of the key. I do know that like my year car (1993) has a chip in the key and near the antenna and has to have matching chips to work

Well I tried this method on my 1995 ES300, and I can confirm that it definately will work. I now have 2 master remote keys that work for my car, even though I got them off of a different car, so the cut is totally different - at least the keyless entry works.

Thanks!!!

Hey crazyhorse which year do you have?

NVM, i programmed the key just by following the steps, BUT, to make it clear, when u hear the beep, press the buttom for at least one sec then release, its gonna beep like 3 or 4 times, then after its done beeping, close/open door, then press the buttom again for at least one sec, and then wait 20 sec and try ur key. the key should work....

i got 96 es 300...and just done a 60k maintainese...and its $500 bucks....coz 60k has longer list than 90k...lol

and that maintainese doesnt even include replacing spark plug and $60 for replacing a fog light bulb?....its so not a rip off, its a damn robbery!!
