How to open the Mini Cooper with the remote control key

Model: Mini Mini F57, F56, F55, F54 - Years 2014-2023
Part: Key

The doors of the Mini Cooper can be opened and closed conveniently thanks to the appropriate buttons on its remote control. However, if the remote control does not work, such as due to a low battery, we can still access it thanks to the physical key. To do this, we must first remove the physical key from the remote control by pressing the release button and remove it from its housing, then use the key to pry under the door handle to detach the plastic cover that hides the lock as shown. on video. Once this is done we can open and close the car using the key and the lock.
