OBDSTAR Program 2024 Toyota Tacoma All Smart Keys Lost

 This guide demonstrates how to perform an “All Keys Lost” procedure on a 2024 Toyota Tacoma with push-button start using the OBDSTAR. The process involves generating a new smart key, programming it via the vehicle’s smart box, and troubleshooting remote functionality.

 

Tools Required

 

 

Step-by-Step Process

1. Generating a New Smart Key

  • Connect the Lonsdor KW100 to the Tacoma’s OBD port.

  • Select “All Keys Lost” mode and place the blank key near the smart start button.

  • Press the brake pedal to allow the system to read vehicle data.

  • The device generates a new key based on the vehicle’s immobilizer information.

2. Accessing the Smart Box

  • Locate the smart box (typically behind the dashboard or center console).

  • Disconnect the factory wiring harness and connect the OBDSTAR Toyota 30 PIN bypass cable to read “immo data” (immobilizer data).
