I have a massive problem, the remote for my ZZE122 is not working (even with a new battery) and after searching the forum for over 1 hour, I have discovered that I have a slave key which does not unlock any of the doors either. Is there a way I can get into my car without breaking any glass? Can I get a master key cut from my slave key? Please help....

Im not entirely sure of the locking mechanism, but I'm assuming if you're handy with a coat hanger you should be able to get it.. or get road assistance out to do it for you.

After that I'm pretty sure that you can go in to the Toyota dealer, or get Toyota out - or they subcontract someone - to recode a key for you - presuming you provide them with sufficient identification and proof that it's your car, of course.

The slave key will still unlock the doors and work in the ignition to start the car. All it won't do is allow you to add/ delete new keys and remotes or work in the glove box and boot lock if you have one. The best way to see how your key has been coded into the cars immobilizer is when you stick it in the ignition and turn the car on see if the security light goes one straight away ( Master) or stays on for a second ( Slave) Also if you have a remote key it will be coded in as a Master.

If the key isn't working in the door it could be a couple of things.

First, it could be the wrong key, did that key originally work in the door, have the doors been rekeyed or was the ignition rekeyed and that is what you have? ( It's probably not this one)


Secondly, the key is worn and the lock is un lubricated which is why it isn't working. Lubricate the lock with Inox or WD40 to flush the crap out of the lock, try your key again with gently wiggling it, if it turns with a bit of a wiggle your key is worn. To fix this get a new one CUT TO CODE!, not have a copy done and the local cobbler where they trace all the wear onto a new transponder key, get it done properly.

Worst case call a Auto Locksmith, don't waste your time with the dealer, they will get you to tow it in and if they can't get into it with the key guess who they call.... a Locksmith :)

I'm not sure if the key has ever worked in the doors as I have always used the remote. I tried it in both front doors and even the boot and still No luck. I will try again tomorrow when it is light and let you know.

Good news. I sprayed the passenger and drivers doors and let it soak in for a few minutes, then sprayed again and gave the key and almighty jiggle in the passenger side, and it unlocked and let me in. I still can't unlock the drivers side, but it lets me lock it but at least I can get in and drive the car again. Thanks for all your help

      Brake issues

      BTW forgot to mention that there is no shake in the steering wheel. The 'shudder', really hard to describe but almost like brakes on and off. Cannot identify front or rear or both. Got me totally miffed.

      Brake issues

      Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes. Also was somewhat intermittent. Having over 100k on the clock a lot which were done towing a big van, I thought I may have warped a disk. Checked them with a dial gauge but no useful info. Bit the bullet and replaced all 4 with new slotted rotors and pads from DBA. Huge difference in braking. However the shudder has return almost with a vengeance. Thought I fixed the problem when I disconnected the ECU for another unrelated issue. ECU is remapped, car went in limp mode and could not clear it with the scangauge. Problem not fixed and I am lost as to why this is happening. Plan on visiting Berima Diesel later on this year to have the injectors checked and I'll get them to look at the brakes if I still haven't figured it out. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you

      200 series won’t shift past 4th gear

      Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Having read some of the replies, to the best of my knowledge there is no such thing as a minor remap. Toyota in their wisdom have the software in the ECU such that it cannot be downloaded, modified and reloaded. It has to be a complete reload, either stock or modified. All you fellows disconnecting the battery is a good and simple way to try and reset everything but similar results can be achieved by simply disconnecting the ECU. That's the big plug in the firewall passenger side. Meanwhile I may need to start a new topic for the following issues I am experiencing: Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes.

      G’day from NSW

      G’day All just got a 2012 (old shape) Corolla Ascent Hatchback Auto. Needs a few things done, it was my Dads who just passed away. Going to install pioneer head unit (basic one really) as a start, then maybe upgrade speakers but I’ll see how the oem ones go, I’ve read I’ll need at least 50w ones for the pioneer. Front inner plastic guards are a bit trashed along with bumper bar, just need to neaten it up a little. cheers Sparky

      Head Unit Replacement for 2010 Toyota Corolla Hatch

      G’day TGA, hope you got this sorted, just about any 2 din would fit. I’m putting a pioneer one in but I’d like to know how to pull the trims apart to fit it 🤨 Every video shows the sedan with a different gearshift with short trims to remove but those 2 lower side ones are 1 piece on the hatch and I’m struggling. Do I need to remove console box to start removing those side piece. Any help cheers Sparky

      Landcruiser 200 GPS

      I am sure many owners of Landcruiser 200s have had the same experience as me where the GPS has led me into the wrong roads. I’ve had two Landcruisers, a 2013 model and currently have a 2021 model. Both vehicles had/have poor GPSs. Even Toyota personnel agree with this. so I am considering replacing it with an after market unit. I don’t want one which relies on mobile phone connection. I am looking at a unit sold by Brummstadt. The link is https://www.brummstadt.com.au/products/toyota-land-cruiser-200-series-2016-2022-premium-head-unit-upgrade-kit-radio-infotainment-system-with-wired-wireless-apple-carplay-and-android-auto-compatibility I would appreciate any feedback from any owner who has taken this step. thanks, Bob See https://www.brummstadt.com.au/products/toyota-land-cruiser-200-series-2016-2022-premium-head-unit-upgrade-kit-radio-infotainment-system-with-wired-wireless-apple-carplay-and-android-auto-compatibility
