When You Need a Lexus Auto Locksmith
Lexus models use advanced immobiliser systems and smart/proximity keys. When something goes wrong, it’s stressful—and often urgent. Common situations we solve include:
- Lost Lexus keys or stolen key replacement
- Locked out of your Lexus (keys in the car or boot)
- Lexus key fob not working or not detected
- Key won’t turn, steering lock won’t release, or ignition issues
- Damaged, snapped, or worn Lexus key blades
- Need a spare Lexus key for convenience or resale value
- Central locking problems or intermittent remote issues
- Water-damaged or battery-failed smart keys
- Aftermarket immobiliser conflicts and “key symbol” on the dash
If your only key is missing, we can cut and program a new Lexus key from scratch without towing the vehicle to a dealer. For urgent lockouts, our non-destructive entry techniques prioritise your paintwork, seals, and locks.
For general issues and solutions, you can also review our guidance on lost or stolen car keys, broken car key problems, and why a key fob not working might suddenly stop your Lexus from starting.

How Lexus Key Programming and Replacement Works
Lexus vehicles—both traditional ignition and push-to-start models—rely on secure immobiliser technology. Here’s how we approach your vehicle professionally and safely:
- Assessment and Security Checks
- We verify vehicle ownership and your ID for security.
- We identify your Lexus model, year, and key type (transponder, remote, smart/proximity).
- We scan systems using dealer-level diagnostics and OBD2 tools to pinpoint immobiliser status, key count, and any faults.
- Non-Destructive Entry (If Locked Out)
- Wherever possible, we use non-destructive entry techniques to unlock your Lexus.
- We only discuss destructive methods (extremely rare) if all secure options are exhausted, and only with your permission.
- Key Cutting and Pairing
- We cut high-precision, laser cut car keys where required.
- We program new keys or fobs using approved procedures:
- OBD2 key programming for many models
- EEPROM programming for some immobiliser/ECU configurations
- ECU/immobiliser programming to add or delete keys, especially after loss or theft
- We can wipe lost or stolen keys from the system to help secure the car.
- Testing and Handover
- We test remote locking, boot release, and passive entry/start (where applicable).
- We demonstrate operation and provide care tips.
- We supply a clear warranty on new keys and our workmanship.
Dealer-level equipment and up-to-date training allow us to service current Lexus technology (including 2024/2025 smart systems) at your location—often faster and more conveniently than arranging main dealer recovery.

FAQs For Lexus Auto Locksmith Services
Can you make a new Lexus key without the original?
Yes. We can cut and program a new Lexus key from scratch using your vehicle’s VIN and immobiliser data, often via OBD2 or EEPROM methods, depending on the model and year. This avoids dealer towing and gets you sorted on-site.
My Lexus says “Key Not Detected.” What should I do?
First, try a fresh key fob battery and hold the fob close to the start button. If it still fails, there may be an immobiliser sync issue, damaged fob electronics, or antenna fault. We provide on-site diagnostics and car key programming to restore operation.
Are your methods non-destructive?
Wherever possible, yes. We use non-destructive entry techniques to unlock doors and boots and protect your locks and paintwork. If a rare destructive step is required (e.g., severely damaged lock), we’ll explain options and costs first.
How long does Lexus key replacement take?
Many replacements are completed in a single visit. Time varies by model, key type (smart vs remote), and whether keys have to be deleted from the system. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when you call.
Can you delete stolen Lexus keys from the car?
Yes. We can remove lost or stolen keys from the immobiliser so they won’t start the vehicle, then add new keys and confirm the system recognises only your authorised fobs.
Do you offer guarantees?
Yes. Our workmanship and new keys/fobs come with clear warranties. We’re insured and DBS-checked for your assurance.
