Which Scion Key Do You Have?

Scion was sold from 2004 to 2016 and used Toyota key systems throughout. Most Scions use chip keys, and some later models came with remote head keys.

Chip keyMost Scions use this cut key with a transponder chip in the head, so the blade is cut to your locks and then the chip is programmed to the immobilizer before the engine will start.
Remote head keyOn this style the lock and unlock buttons sit right in the key head, and both the transponder and the remote have to be programmed before the replacement works completely.
Separate keyless remoteSome Scions came with a chip key plus a small separate remote on the key ring, and we can replace either piece individually without replacing the other.

Make a Spare Before You Need One

Making a Scion spare while you still have a working key is fast, since we can add the new key to the car using the one you already have, but once all keys are lost the job means originating a key from the lock, which costs considerably more. A spare is one of the smartest car keys investments you can make.

Owning a Scion in Las Vegas

Scions are popular with students and first time owners in Las Vegas, and many are now passed down in families or bought used with only one key. If you bought a used Scion with a single key, get a spare made soon, because desert heat also wears out remote batteries faster than most owners expect.
