Product Description
Autel MaxiIM IKEY IKEYHY3T — 3-Button Hyundai-Style Programmable Smart Key
The IKEYHY3T is a Premium-tier Autel IKEY programmable smart key built in the Hyundai keyhead style. If you have a customer who lost their Hyundai smart key or needs an additional key programmed, this is the replacement unit you reach for. Three buttons — Lock, Unlock, Trunk — cover the most-used functions for the majority of Hyundai applications. The included Hyundai-type emergency blade gives the customer a mechanical backup if the battery dies or the system malfunctions.
What This Key Is and How It Works
Autel IKEYs are universal programmable smart key blanks. They are not pre-cut or pre-programmed. You receive the IKEY, and then you use an Autel IMMO tablet — the KM100 is the dedicated programmer, but any Autel IM-series tablet works — to program the key to the vehicle's immobilizer system. The IKEY takes the place of an OEM key blank, letting you do the complete key replacement job in-house without sourcing a dealer-only part.
The IKEYHY3T is classified as a Premium IKEY, which refers to the build tier and shell design. It is styled to match Hyundai factory smart keys so it looks like an OEM replacement in the customer's hand.

Who Needs This Key
This key is for professional automotive locksmiths and NASTF-certified Vehicle Security Professionals. If your shop handles key programming on Hyundai vehicles — Elantra, Sonata, Santa Fe, Tucson, and similar models from the applicable years — and you are doing add-key or all-keys-lost jobs, this gives you an in-stock blank that programs quickly through the Autel ecosystem. You are not dependent on dealer lead times or OEM pricing.
The 3-button layout (Lock/Unlock/Trunk) is the correct configuration for Hyundai models that do not include remote start or panic on the OEM fob. If your customer's original key had a panic button, you want the IKEYHY4TP instead — that 4-button version adds Panic to the button set.
Programming Workflow
The IKEYHY3T programs via OBD connection using any Autel IMMO tablet. The recommended standalone device is the KM100 (45), a 5.5-inch wireless programmer that includes the Bluetooth V200 adapter and comes with two IKEYs in the box. If your shop already owns an IM508S or IM608 PRO II, those tablets handle IKEY programming as well using the included XP200 or XP400Pro programmer.
Programming steps are guided on-screen. You select the vehicle, choose the key programming function, and follow the tablet prompts to bind the IKEY to the vehicle's IMMO system. The emergency blade cuts to the vehicle's key code using standard locksmith equipment.
What Is Included
- 1x IKEYHY3T Programmable Smart Key (Hyundai 3-button style)
- 1x Hyundai-type Emergency Blade
CR2032 battery not included. Autel IMMO programming tablet not included and sold separately.
Comparing Hyundai IKEY Options
Autel offers two Hyundai-style IKEYs:
- IKEYHY3T — 3 buttons: Lock, Unlock, Trunk. Use when the vehicle does not have a panic function on the OEM fob.
- IKEYHY4TP — 4 buttons: Lock, Unlock, Trunk, Panic. Use for Hyundai vehicles with a factory panic button.
When in doubt, check the customer's OEM fob for the button count before ordering. Both carry the same Premium tier designation and use the same Hyundai-style shell and emergency blade.
