The 2016–2017 Tundra uses the same key setup, so everything on this page applies to those years too. The full picture is on the Toyota Tundra key guide.

2017 Toyota Tundra: key facts

Key type: Transponder chip key
Push-to-start: No
Transponder chip: Varies by trim — we confirm by VIN

All keys lost: We can originate new keys on site

G-to-H boundary years: transpondery.com lists the 128-bit H chip from 2016, Southern Lock lists G-chip keys through 2017, and UHS lists TOY44H from 2017 — we identify the chip from the blade stamp or a key reader before cutting.

Same key system as the 2016–2017 Tundra

Toyota kept the Tundra's key system unchanged across 2016–2017, so everything about replacing a 2017 key — blanks, programming, and what happens if every key is lost — matches the rest of that run. The full year-by-year breakdown lives in our Toyota Tundra key guide.

What drives the price is the key type, whether you still have a working key, and where the car is parked. There's more on Toyota programming in general on our Toyota key page.
