🔑 Original Lishi 2-In-1 Pick and Decoder HU43 — Toyota / Lexus
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📦 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The Original Lishi 2-In-1 Pick and Decoder HU43 is a factory-original Lishi
tool built for the high-volume Toyota and Lexus market. It combines a tension
pick and a bit-reading decoder in a single stainless steel instrument —
letting locksmiths both open the lock and originate a new key without
swapping tools. The HU43 keyway covers a huge installed base including
Toyota Camry, Corolla, Tacoma, Tundra, 4Runner, Highlander, Sienna, RAV4,
Avalon, Prius, and the Lexus IS, ES, GS, RX, GX, and LX family. Whether you
are decoding a driver door lock, ignition, or trunk, the HU43 2-in-1 is one
of the most-used tools in any locksmith's daily set.

🔧 PROGRAMMING
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚠️ No programming required — this is a mechanical pick + decoder tool, not an electronic device.
📖 How to use: Insert the 2-in-1 tool into the lock cylinder, apply light
tension with the pick end to release the wafer stack, then read the bit
depths (1–3) across the 8 tool spaces. Translate the readings to a cuts
code, then cut a new key blank (TOY43 / HU43 blank) on a precision
key-cutting machine.
🏭 Recommended: Use a quality code-cutting machine such as HPC CodeMax,
Silca Quattroplus, Advanced Diagnostics MXP, or Xhorse Dolphin — paired
with a genuine Toyota / Lexus HU43 key blank for the best results.
⚠️ Most Toyota / Lexus vehicles from 2001+ use transponder keys. After
cutting the new mechanical key, you will also need to program the
transponder chip (H-chip / D-chip / G-chip depending on year) using a
compatible immobilizer programming tool such as Autel IM608, Xhorse
Key Tool Plus, or Advanced Diagnostics MVP / T-Code Pro.

❓ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Q1: Is this an original Lishi tool or a knockoff?
A: ✅ This is a 100% genuine Original Lishi 2-in-1 tool, sourced directly
from authorized Lishi distributors. Every unit ships with an authenticity
card and Lishi serial marking. Beware of cheap "Lishi-style" copies on
other marketplaces — they do not read the same and will damage locks.
Q2: Which Toyota and Lexus vehicles does the HU43 tool work on?
A: ✅ The Lishi-T096 covers Toyota Camry, Corolla, Tacoma, Tundra, 4Runner,
Highlander, Sienna, RAV4, Avalon, and Prius (2001–2017), plus Lexus
IS, ES, GS, RX, GX, LX, CT, HS, and Scion tC, xB, xD, iQ — all vehicles
using the HU43 keyway.
Q3: How do I know if my Toyota / Lexus uses the HU43 keyway?
A: ✅ Check the metal key bow (head) of your existing key. HU43 keys are
typically stamped with "HU43" on the bow, or you can compare the cut
profile to a Lishi reference chart. If you have a transponder key, the
plastic head will usually have a code stamped on it.
Q4: Do I need a working key to use this tool?
A: ✅ No. The 2-in-1 design lets you pick the lock open first, then decode
the bitting from inside the cylinder — no working key required.
Q5: After I cut the new key, do I need to program anything?
A: ⚠️ Yes — most 2001+ Toyota / Lexus vehicles use transponder keys
(H-chip, D-chip, or G-chip). You will need a separate immobilizer
programming tool (Autel IM608, Xhorse Key Tool Plus, Advanced Diagnostics
MVP / T-Code Pro, or equivalent) to program the transponder chip into
the vehicle. The Lishi tool only handles the mechanical cut.
Q6: How long does it take to pick and decode a HU43 lock?
A: ⚠️ For an experienced Lishi user, typically 2–5 minutes per cylinder. If
you are new to Lishi tools, allow 30–60 minutes of practice on a junkyard
door lock before attempting a paying customer's vehicle. Watch the
official Lishi training videos for the HU43.
Q7: Does this work on the newer Lexus smart-key systems?
A: ⚠️ Yes for the mechanical emergency / valet key blade — the HU43 reads
the emergency-blade keyway on Lexus smart-key fobs. However, you will
also need a smart-key programmer to add the new fob to the vehicle's
immobilizer.
Q8: What's the difference between HU43 and TOY48 / HU100 Lishi tools?
A: ✅ Different keyways for different Toyota / Lexus generations:
• HU43 — older Toyota / Lexus / Scion (2001–2017 most models)
• TOY48 — some 1990s–early 2000s Toyota trucks and Lexus
• HU100 — late-model Toyota / Lexus (2018+)
Match the tool to the stamped keyway on your existing key.
Q9: How do I maintain the Lishi HU43 tool?
A: ✅ Wipe clean after each use, store in the included vinyl pouch, and
keep the tension pick tip free of debris. Original Lishi tools are made
of hardened stainless steel and will provide years of service with
minimal maintenance. Do not lubricate the pick area — it can attract
dust and grit.
