Hello guys!
Got a 2007 Lexus GS350 in the shop with unknown past and "no key detected" condition. Has B2289 code "key collation waiting time over". Got two locksmiths before trying to program the key without any luck. Then car got in my hands. No ignition, no crank. I checked all wiring from Certification ECU to Power Source control ECU. Both ECU's have good power supply and LIN communication( checked with scope). When you push start button you can see good square wave signal at Certification ECU what makes me think Power Button and Power Source ECU both working, transfering signal to Certification ECU.
Actually, I am more diagnostic guy rather locksmith but decided to do program keys by myself. I have Tango with basic software. I have J2534 Cardaq3M Plus. I have VVDI Prog. I have Autel IM608 Pro( it's claimed to do immo reset and learn new key if you have master key). Ready to buy any additional subscription to finish that car.
I was surfing several days on forums and across internet but still have following questions to make sure :
1) What kind of SLK Emulator I should buy?
2) Should I buy a corresponding maker to that Emulator?
3) Since I have Pass Thru device, does it make sense to buy Toyota Plus?
4) When I tried to read the key Tango says: "transponder not detected". Key blade fits driver's door lock. Does that mean failed key? If yes, what key I should buy: new or used one?
5) Is there any opportunity to do not remove ID Code Box to program it? It's buried under the dash and would be pain in the ass to get it from there, need to remove whole dash and air/conditioner box...
Thank you all for attention and appreciate any input.
