I took my 2007 FJ Cruiser car key to Ace to copy!

Question

They told me the car key does not have a chip in it. I was surprised and checked my manual and no montion of a chip. Since this is a newer car shouldn't it have a chip in it? Also, what's the ID number that comes with the keys, I thought that had something to do with the chip??

Answer 1

not all new cars have a chip in the key and as far as i know that number with your keys is so if you loose your key you can go to the dealer and they can get you a replacement key.

Answer 2

I have an '07 FJ Cruiser TRD SE, the key does not have a chip.
