Missing Tailgate Key

My case on my 2017 is like Sammy Sosa Said! I was given two key fobs, and a dedicated tailgate key! All of mine work on the tailgate and that's the way they should have made all these trucks . . . Every Year!

 

No, if the key in the fob works there's no need for an extra key to keep up with.

 

Hahaha.... AT probs...!

 

How do I get my fab to lock my tail gate?....

 

How do I get my fab to work on tailgate. I have 2017 tucoma sport with tech package.

 

1.Take key out of Fob.
2. Put key in tailgate lock.
3. Turn Key to lock/unlock.
4. Remove key from tailgate and put back in Fob.

 

Perfect answer!

 

I have a 18' trd sport and the fab key on opens the door and the second key only opens the tailgate and the glove box. I am hoping I can get copies made for both of these keys at a local hardware store. Has any one had any luck getting any luck getting copies of these key made by an outside source (other than a dealer)?

 

Well just to add another data point. My 2018 off road came with two key Fobs and a tail gate key in the glove box, all three keys lock the tailgate.

 

Mine works in my tailgate

 

I think I got my code. Either of these two.

 

@DoggerDave

The number that is cast into the body is not likely your key code. It is probably a mold number.

Your key code is the B5DAA.

 

The key inside the fob doesn’t work? I thought that worked on the tailgate and glovebox.

 

Nope. Mine is a 2016 with push button start. The door key is a laser cut key and the tailgate key is different. Going to check the bag with the tire change tools and hope for the best!

 

Yes at first I thought it was the 4 digit number but was thinking the same thing when I took the picture and realized it wasn’t stamped in to the casting. My eyes are not as good as they used to be!

 

Mine works.



Maybe after a certain while, Toyota decided to make the keys all the same.

 

Yeah they smartened up after the first year I think!
Lucky you!

 

Well ain’t that some bull.

 

I just wanted to say thanks for this thread

I've been using the key flob key for a long time but worry it will stop locking into key fob. I went to dealer ask if they can make me a copy they said no but did not mention I should have a dedicated key or they could order one

Thanks again found my key
