I ordered a OEM Key with a remote off line, i got it programmed to loc/unloc, and i will take the key to get cut in a couple days.

So heres the question:

How much does it cost to have the immobilizer chip programmed to start the car?

I have heard from free to $60.00, so whats the real anwser?

I have a 07 scion tC by the way.

 

I work at a dealer we charge $97.00

 

toyoguy .. so how is this key programming done.. does it really have to be taken in to a dealership ?

 

just for programming!?!?!? i was told 45 from the one here?

 

Depends on the labor rate and how much time they charge to do it. we charge $97.00 an hour and 1 hour to do. All dearlerships are different because all labor rates are different and times charged are different
