Ford C Max - Video tutorial

Model: Ford C Max MK 2 - Years 2010-2019
Part: Instrument cluster
Operation: How to start the Ford C-Max even if the key is not recognized or is low on battery.

In this video, we see what to do if our C-Max does not recognize the key: if when we start the vehicle it tells us that no key is detected, the way to start the car is to place the key in the steering column, in the housing that we see in the video, where it can read the chip even if the key is low on battery or if it has some connection problem. At the same time, we turn on the start button and the vehicle will start anyway, because that is the emergency slot and it is specifically designed for this situation. So there are no key recognition problems, as we will always have the possibility to start.

How to reset the TPMS light of the Volkswagen Polo 2011

The orange tire light indicates the presence of one or more tires with an inflation pressure below the recommended limit. All this is easily solved by inflating them correctly or replacing them in the event of a puncture. After carrying out these operations it is necessary to reset the warning light and therefore also the sensor in order to have new reading data. All you have to do is start the car ignition and then fully open the glove compartment on the passenger side. Locate the two buttons in the right corner and press "Set". At this point the reset is complete and you can turn off the ignition.
