Toyota Yaris Key Replacement

Toyota Yariss have been on Dallas–Fort Worth roads since the 1999 era, and across 3 key generations this model has used 1 different key system — transponder (cut). Whichever yours is, DFW Keys 4 Cars cuts and programs it at your location, 24/7: spare keys, lost-everything replacements, fob programming, and lockouts. Call (214) 717-6398.


About Yaris Keys

The table below is our verified key reference for the Toyota Yaris — model years, key types, and the transponder/immobilizer family each generation uses. Generations overlap at boundary years, so we always confirm the exact part by VIN before dispatching.

Security System & Immobilizer

Toyota’s immobilizer evolved through four transponder families — Texas 4C on 90s cars, the 4D67 “dot” chip, the DST80 “G” chip, and today’s 128-bit “H” chip — before the Smart Key System brought push-to-start proximity fobs. Each family needs different programming procedures, which our equipment covers end to end.

On the Yaris specifically, the immobilizer families we see are: Texas 4C (non-crypto), Texas 4D67 “Dot” (DST40), DST80 “G”. A key that is cut correctly but not programmed to this system will turn the locks and never start the engine — programming is the half of the job that matters.

Which key does your year have?

  • 1999–2005: Transponder (cut) — Texas 4C (non-crypto) (TOY43)

  • 2012–2018: Transponder (cut) — DST80 “G” (TOY43/TOY44)

Toyota Yaris Key FAQ

I lost the only key to my Yaris. What now?

We come to the vehicle, verify ownership, cut a new key from the VIN, and program it on-site. No tow, no dealer wait — this is our most common Yaris call.

Will a hardware-store copy start my Yaris?

It will open the doors and nothing else on transponder-era cars — the chip inside the key must be programmed to the immobilizer, which is the part we do curbside.

My Yaris is older — do you still stock keys for it?

Yes. We carry blanks and chips going back to the 1999–2005 generation (transponder (cut)), and a code-cut fresh key usually turns a worn lock better than any copy of your worn key.
