3) Toyota 24-pin smart key AKL cable Support Dismantle And Read The IMMO Box for F15/F18 smart keys, 2019 onwards such as Highlander, Alphard, and Vellfire, equipped with TMLF12 smart box
– Use with X431 Key Remote Maker support to Read Transponder, Generate Transponder, Detect Frequency, Detect Ignition switch coil signal, Generate Remote (Launch X431 remote), and Unlock Toyota smart key, etc functions.
As you can see, the X431 Key Programmer and LAUNCH XPROG3 are tools for different purposes:
The X431 Key Programmer is only used for key generation and detection and does not support other functions;
The XPROG3 cannot be used for key generation, but it supports functions such as key programming and ECU READ AND WRITE.
Both X431 Key Programmer and LAUNCH XPROG3 can be used to activate X431 tools with
X431 Pros Star, Pros Elite, PRO ELITE, Pro3 V5.0 (V+ V5.0), PROS V5.0, Pro3S+ V5.0, LAUNCH PRO5, PRO TT, PRO3 ACE, PRO DYNO, PRO3 APEX, PAD II, PAD V, PAD VII, PAD V (PAD V ELITE), PAD VII ELITE,
X431 IMMO PLUS/IMMO ELITE
*X431 V/ V+ 1.0-4.0/ Pros v1.0 with X-PROG3 CAN NOT ADD extra IMMO software. Please check here for more information.
NOTE:
The standard package of the LAUNCH X431 IMMO tool (X431 IMMO PLUS/IMMO ELITE) includes the XPROG3 tool, but the X431 Key Programmer needs to be purchased separately.
NOTE 2:
The new LAUNCH X431 G5 (not yet available for sale) not only supports the functions of the XPROG3, but can also completely replace the X431 Key Programmer for key generation.
