If you need a duplicate of the vehicle's ignition key, you must consult a specialist who can not only create the mechanical key cut but also programme the key itself. Essentially, this involves storing the code that allows the vehicle to start (immobiliser) within the new key. This operation can sometimes be done at a bench by reading the code from the original key and then writing it into the new one, obviously with the help of appropriate equipment.

In some cases, it is necessary to read the code directly from the engine management unit via the diagnostic port.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
