How do you program keyless remote 2005 corolla?

Answer 1

I just did this myself for my 2005 Corolla and it worked PERFECTLY! If it doesn't go into programming mode the first time, just keep trying, it'll work. Same thing with the remote. It rejected it the first couple times, but I got it right after a few tries. It's all about the timing. I'm super stoked that I found these intructions just now cause the Toyota dealer wanted $120 and for me to leave my car there all day.
