Programming 2001-2005 RAV4 Wireless Remote Transmitters
These are the steps for programming the 2001-2005 remote to your vehicle.
Please, make sure that you first carefully read all the instructions beforehand, in order to familiarize yourself with the procedures and timings.
Begin with the driver’s door opened and unlocked and the key out of the ignition.
1. Insert and remove the key from the ignition switch 2 times within 5 seconds.
Within the next 40 seconds:
2. Close and open the driver’s door TWICE.
3. Now insert the key into the ignition and remove it.
Within the next 40 seconds:
4. Close and open the driver’s door TWICE.
5. Close the door.
6. Insert the key into the ignition.
7. Turn the ignition switch from “Lock” to “On” and back to “Lock” again, at intervals of about one second to select the
desired mode. Such modes are:
1 time for ADD mode.
2 times for REWRITE mode.
3 times for CONFIRMATION mode.
5 times for PROHIBITION mode.
8. After selecting the mode, remove the key from the ignition.
9. To confirm your mode selection, the power locks will now cycle “lock” to “unlock” a number of times corresponding to your key cycles in step #7 above.
If “Confirmation” or “Prohibition” modes have been selected, then opening the door will complete the procedure.

10. For “Adding” or “Rewriting” modes, do the following steps within 40 seconds of the Door Lock confirmation:
A. Press both, the transmitter Lock and Unlock buttons at the same time between 1 and 1.5 seconds and then release them.
B. Now, within 3 seconds, press the transmitter Lock button for more than 1 second and then release it.
If the transmitter has been successfully programmed, the power locks will cycle “lock” to “unlock” once.
If there are problems with the transmitter or the procedure up to this point, the locks will cycle twice. If this occurs, please verify that you have received the correct transmitter, and then repeat the procedure from the beginning.
C. If you want to program multiple remotes, just repeat steps A and B with each one.
11. Open the driver’s door to conclude and close the programming mode.
I hope that helps 🙂
