How to fix the problem of the key getting stuck in the ignition of the Nissan Qashqai

Model: Nissan Qashqai J10 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Key

In this video, you will see how to resolve the issue of the key getting stuck in the ignition of a Nissan Qashqai using a set of thin diamond files that gradually file down the key that has broken inside. Keep in mind that this may prevent the steering lock from activating and could also affect the central locking. However, there are other methods: by inserting the key into the lock and pushing it a bit more, you may be able to push it further in and then extract it along with the other key. This occurs due to the spring that compresses to allow the second key to enter: indeed, by pushing on this spring, it is possible to release the broken key as well.
