Lock Cycle Confirmation: At this point, the door locks should automatically cycle (lock then unlock). This indicates that your 2007 Toyota Yaris has successfully entered programming mode and is ready to learn the new key fob.

Programming Confirmation: The door locks will cycle once again to confirm that the key fob has been successfully programmed. If you have additional key fobs to program, repeat step 12 with each fob. If you are finished programming all your key fobs, proceed to the next step.
