Try searching partsfactory.camelbacktoyota got one for $103 and change. Free shipping after $150 (small box only), so buy some accessories like filters

SM-N900P ?

 

These keys are known as electronic transmitters

SM-N900P ?

 

google "mid atlantic toyota parts" and search for the part number in question (89994-47061).

 

just wanted to add another place to purchase a fob. I bought a new smart key online from north hills toyota in pittsburgh,pa for $108 shipped.not sure if non sks key is less.

 

update: program smart key this morning got stuck on step 9, tried a few different ways and now everything works great!! thanks usnavy for the info and your service to this great country.Also thanks to everyone else for all the great posts.Saved me a lot of money! Now i don't have to chase down my wives fob when i use her car."honey do you know where the key fob is? did you look on key chicken,my purse,the counter,on the car seat"ect ect..lol and yes i told her leaving the fob on the seat slowly drains the battery

 

operator error.. i had the order wrong when pressing the lock and unlock button at the same time. My 10 year old misread the instructions and i tried the new fob first then the old one.did that twice then reread and got it right the first time i followed the instructions. lol

 

it sounds all well and good, but I've gotten two quotes here in Boston from Toyota Dealers, and they would still charge between $140-$170 for new Toyota fob. How would you get around that one? The programming part is cheaper....

 

I failed. I replace new battery both.
I thought old fob must be a silver logo key.
Mine isn't

 

2008 with SKS bought used came with one remote with intermittent lock button issues. New key from camelback toyota, could not complete step 9. Checked batteries in both old and new key were low. About 2.8v, new batteries in each still no luck getting new key through step 9. Finally used tech stream software and got new key working. I think it may be the old key lock button that caused the fail? I did get the car lock/unlock feedback in 9a. Oh well at least the new key works!

 

I own a 2006 with SKS. Bought a new (unused, original Toyota packaging) fob off EBay for $105.
Tried procedure B on this thread. Successful up to step 8 but could not program fob using steps 9a-9c. Tried alternate procedure detailed in post 16 of thread referenced on first post of this thread. This reverses steps 9a and 9b (9a - press both lock/unlock buttons on new fob first, 9b-press both buttons on old fob next). This worked with single door lock/unlock cycle almost immediately after pressing lock button only on new fob (9c).
Also, could not get system into program mode in procedure A. Anti-theft light would continue to blink after removing old fob from slot. Solved by opening/closing driver's door faster.
New key now has complete functionality.

 

Wonderful thread, but I have to admit the part that makes me smile is reading "chicken dance." LOL

Two thumbs up

 

I am hoping you can help. I have tried this about 20 or more times and cannot get it to work.
I own a 2004 (Generation 2) with SKS. Bought a new fob from dealer.
Procedure A to start vehicle worked great.
Tried procedure B on this thread. Successful up to step 8 but could not program fob using steps 9a-9c. Tried alternate procedure This reverses steps 9a and 9b (9a - press both lock/unlock buttons on new fob first, 9b-press both buttons on old fob next).
I was unsuccessful. HOWEVER... For the 21st time, I rewrote the directions and planned to try once again.
I wrote thus:
1 DOOR
2 SLOT 2x
3 DOOR 2x
4 SLOT 1x
5 DOOR 2x
6 in SLOT, close DOOR
7 ON,ON,ON
8. OLD FOB OUT
(locks automatic)
9 OLD FOB 2 BUTTONS
10 NEW FOB 2 BUTTONS
11 NEW FOB LOCK
and I had SUCCESS!
So I cannot tell you what I did differently than the other 20 times, but maybe I was faster? My advice would be if it doesn't work, keep trying.
Saved $80 programming fee at a lock smith. They insisted that it was not programmable without their assistance.
Also when I made fob purchase at dealer, I asked if they ever offered discount coupons for parts and they said yes there was one due out in March. I looked on my phone and saw that a 15% coupon was out and he let me use if from the phone. I paid more than some people here ($150 including tax) after my $25 discount but I am happy. A job that could have cost close to $300 cost half of that...THANKS to all who posted

 

I'm impressed by the instruction and all the tips! I bought a new key off ebay for $105 shipped and did the chicken dance. I did have to change the battery in my old fob (it worked well but I put a new one in it because it would stall on step 9 of proc 3). The process worked great! The remote has full functionality. I have a 2005 prius with black key. Thanks so much for all the tips! The cheapest I could find locally with programing was $195+

 

tried 32 times same results with sks,,,all goes well to 9B then NOTHING! i have 2008 with sks, Brand new batteries in both remotes,, i have no idea what to do now,, my wife and son have tried the dance also,,, sometimes it just makes me wonder if all this is not hope an pray!

 

same exact thing for my 08. really upsets me that sks doesnt , new batteries in both , old fob works great, the new silver back will not program for sks,,
