Hi Elijah,

Most vehicles requires specific tools capable of immobilizer programming and these tools are not the basic category scan tools and are expensive.

For Toyota vehicles with immobilizer incorporated into the PCM, there is a manual way of doing it, without any scan tools.

Do you know how to manually bridge the OBD-II to get the MIL blinking? This is usually referred to as test mode.
