Transponder Keys

Most Lexus vehicles come with transponder keys that need to be programmed in order to start the car. These keys have an electronic chip that emits an low-level radio signal when it's close to the dashboard or when the key is inserted into the ignition.

If you've lost your key, it's a easy task to reprogram the immobiliser so that the car will never start with that key ever again.
