If no working key is available, this required access may be missing. In supported applications, the APB112 can take over the role of the key: it captures the communication between the vehicle and key system, calculates the required data and simulates a valid smart key for the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>The designations 46 and 4D refer to widely used transponder families found in vehicle keys. The Autel programming system identifies which supported variant is used in the vehicle.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p><!-- TYPICAL WORKFLOW --><\/p>\n<section class=\"ml24pd-sec ml24pd-case\">\n<h2>Typical Workflow: Toyota Smart Key \u2013 All Keys Lost<\/h2>\n<p class=\"ml24pd-case-lead\">Simplified workflow for supported Toyota \/ Lexus variants.
