How to start a Hyundai Tucson with a dead remote control battery

Model: Hyundai Tucson TL, MK 3 - Years 2015-2021
Part: Key

In this video we can see how to start a Hyundai Tucson with a dead remote control. This procedure only applies to vehicles with push-button start. We are inside the car, and if we try to press the start button, the display says "key not detected". To overcome this inconvenience, we must start the car normally by pressing the start button, but not with our finger, but with the top part of the remote control itself. This way the car recognizes the key code and starts normally; but we must not forget to replace the remote control battery as soon as possible.
