There used to be someone on here that was reflashing ECUs for key issues on 100 series. Does anyone know or remember who that was and if they are still doing it?
Thanks in advance

If my search led me to the right person is was @Mauser . DM'd him on the the and haven't heard back. And his profile doesn't say when he was on last.
I ended up using this guy and he's sent the keys back Saturday. This is also the same day he got them.
Emailed him my issue and since I had the key and didn't have to buy one from him he just had me choose the 1 key option in the "Mail In Keymaker" drop down.
Asked him to remake my former key back into a master again and if possible add two blanks I also sent. Not sure if you need to choose the right one or not since the Toyota and Lexus ones are the same price and kind of the same thing.
(I apparently deleted all the keys in the EEPROM when trying to program the wireless clicker...
)Should just have to plug the ECU back in and it should be good.
Will update when I get it back in.
Mauser hasn't done ECU's for a few years. There's plenty of local locksmith's now that have the ability to do it.
Exacly what I figured.

Thanks folks,,,
Update: Got the ECU back and good to go.
Plugged it back in. Insert key and start. (Didn't wipe/virginize the ECU/EEPROM, I had the guy reinsert my transponder code off my old key)

I guess I can leave this here for anyone interested in DIY

Yep, the only reason I didn't do it myself is because I suck at soldering.
But if you do it yourself it can be done for the cost of the equipment.
