Keyless Entry Remote Fob Programming Instructions for the 2007 Scion xB

Important Note: These steps apply to programming the remote (keyless entry) functions of a remote head key. If your key includes a transponder chip, the blade must be cut and electronically programmed by a qualified technician. If it is a non-transponder key, only the key blade needs to be cut—no programming is required for the ignition portion.

Step-by-Step Programming Procedure:

  • Step 1: Ensure the key is removed from the ignition.
  • Step 2: Open and unlock the driver’s door. All other doors, including the trunk, must be closed.
  • Step 3: Within 5 seconds, insert the key into the ignition and remove it twice.
  • Step 4: Close and open the driver’s door two times.
  • Step 5: Insert the key into the ignition again, then remove it.
  • Step 6: Close and open the driver’s door two more times.
  • Step 7: Insert the key back into the ignition and leave it inserted.
  • Step 8: Close the driver’s door.
  • Step 9: Turn the ignition ON, then OFF without starting the engine.
  • Step 10: Remove the key from the ignition.
  • Step 11: The door locks will cycle (lock and unlock) to confirm the vehicle has entered programming mode.
  • Step 12: On the first remote: Press and hold both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for approximately 1.5 seconds. Immediately after releasing both buttons, press and hold the LOCK button for 2 seconds.
  • Step 13: The door locks will cycle once to confirm successful programming. To program additional remotes, repeat Step 12 for each one. If no additional remotes are being added, proceed to the final step.
  • Step 14: Open the driver’s door to exit programming mode. The process is now complete.
