When the vehicle was delivered all the keys and locks matched. Something went wrong in-between?
If you only need a key as a back up, because if is electric, you can have a spare key cut if the locksmith uses an impressioning tool which provides a profile of the key which can then be cut. Have two made, keep one at home and one in the glove box.
You need a new auto locksmith, it should be an easily guessable key cut.
I have a few troubleshooting tips for your #Toyota Avalon key fob.
First things first, make sure it's YOUR key fob (and you didn't accidentally grab your mom's keys!).
Change the battery
Batteries don't last forever, you'll be surprised how often it's just a dead battery! Search our YouTube channel on how to change a key fob battery for your specific year, make, and model!
Wipe the board
The board inside your remote can get a lot more filthy than you think! When the board is dirty it can prohibit the contact to the circuit board when you push down on the button. Simply wiping the circuit board off can make your key fob like new again!
The old car battery reset trick
I know this sounds absurd, but it works sometimes and is worth trying. If you exhausted all of the options above, disconnect both terminals on your car battery for 10 minutes. Then reconnect them and try your key fob. This has worked for many people and I have no idea why. If you do, please comment below to explain.
New fob!
It might be time for a new key fob! No need to dread over the expensive costs of a new key fob, at Keyless Entry Remote Fob Inc., you can get a refurbished one for a very affordable price! You won't even be able to tell the difference. Just search your vehicle make, model, and year to purchase a key fob or give us a call at 402-671-5100.
If the eng. Is cranking over could be spark or fuel or antitheft is enabled is the antitheft light on or is there an aftermarket alarm antitheft device installed on vehicle?if you have a key fob try changing the battery in fob.
There are a few things you can do to get your key fob working like new again:
1) Wipe the board
The board inside your remote can get a lot more filthy than you think! When the board is dirty it can prohibit the contact to the circuit board when you push down on the button. Simply wiping the circuit board off can make your key fob like new again!
2)Get it checked
Go to your local hardware store like AutoZone or Oreilly's. They usually have a RF frequency tester. This little gadget will let you know if your key fob is sending a signal. If it is, you may need to reprogram your key fob to your vehicle

Hi,
Kindly submit the question under 1999 Toyota Avalon section on the website by clicking this link so that the best car experts can view and post a solution to the problem.
well ive never heard of a reset for a fuel pump but if you put your ear to the gas tank and have someone turn the key on (not start) and see if you hear a buzzing sound if you dont then the pump is bad.
