I am trying to get my 04 RX330 to learn a new master key. I have one
working master and the new key is already cut. I have tried various
permutations of advice found online, but none of it seems to work.
Specifically, I insert my working master, turn the cylinder from off-on
5 times and leave the key in on. Then I open and close driver door
6x, then I take out old master, put in new key and turn to on. Watching
the blinking light, it never seems to do anything other than blink. What
I expected was that it would go out, and then I open and close the driver
door to finish the programming cycle.
Does anyone have any idea how to do this?
Thanks

Thanks for your reply. I tried this and I still got no dice. When
I go through the procedure, I get the impression that the security
light (the one just below the nav) should stay illuminated steady
and then go out when it is done. Instead, when I stick the new
key in, it just stays blinking as if the key is unrecognized. I've
definately waited long enough. It seems that I do not have the
car in programming mode, but I cannot understand why. I am
wondering if maybe something is wrong with the new key. When
I press the buttons the LED illuminates, so I am pretty sure the
battery is fine. Per the instructions, I interpret the "within n
seconds" to mean that this step should be completed within n
seconds of the previous step. Am I missing something?
Thanks
