How to Get Pin Code for 2025 Toyota GT86?
Problem:
Working on a 2025 Toyota GR86 with Lonsdor K518 Pro. Need to add a key, Does anyone know of this the same as the other Toyota rolling code procedure? Will the 3rd party calculate this for me?
Solution:
2 Ways to get pin code:
1.) Provide rolling code to 3rd party to get pin code.
2). Provide the rolling code to Lonsdor engineer to calculate pin code.
Supports 2021- GT86 add key by OBD.
Supports Lonsdor LT20 smart key.
Menu path: Toyota/Select from vehicle/Asia/GT86/2021-/PEPS (CAN)
How to get the pin code from Lonsdor?
It is recommended to provide an on-site video when providing code calculation services, in order to verify whether it is truly a total key loss situation. Please pay attention to the following 3 points:
1). The instrument cluster (the cluster must not be illuminated).
2). The center console (the center console should indicate it is not in an active/operational state), which is typical of a total key loss scenario.
3). The OBD port should only have Lonsdor K518 device connected, with no additional data collection equipment attached.
Send the rolling code to us after payment, then Lonsdor engineer will calculate pin code.

Write 2019 Range Rover Lock RFA Initialization Data by Keydiy KD-X4
Replacement of Locked SPC560B60L3 Microprocessor for a 2019 Range Rover: Virginization and Writing of RFA Initialization Data using Keydiy KD-X4.
On models from that year, the SPC is locked; you cannot read from or write to it. You have to swap in a new one in order to write the data and proceed with the programming. This is a scenario typical of All Keys Lost (AKL) situations on Range Rover vehicles.
The choice is between replacing that specific microcontroller or replacing the entire RFA module.
Swap it out for a virgin unit.
Write the data, then pair and synchronize the system to ensure everything is fully functional.

HK001: for Hyundai and Kia only
NK001: for multile brands
2. Functions
HK001:
1). Generate Hyundai Kia smart remote
2). Copy Hyundai/Kia NCF29Ax smart key.
3). Unlock Hyundai/Kia smart keys
HK001:

Program 2023 Lexus GX Smart Key with Autel IM608 or Lonsdor K518?
Problem:
Lexus GX 2023 all keys lost situation. The owner tried to back up immo data with Autel IM608 and g-box failed. Then he does reset immo box but when he tries add key, learning failed.
Error when back up immo data:
The current smart main ECU software version number is not supported.
Solution:
TMLF12-1 (FCC ID: NI4TMLF12-1) is a smart key immobilizer model manufactured by DENSO used in various Toyota and Lexus vehicles. It typically operates on a 314-315 MHz frequency and is used for 8A-type knife keys and push-button proximity systems.
As Autel said, this ECU software version is not supported by Autel IM508/IM608.
Try other devices.
User feedback:
Autel failed. Lonsdor K518 pro working fine.
Programmed by lonsdor reset immo.
