Part: Key

Video tutorial

In this video, we consider a situation that can occur: having a functioning remote with a charged battery - perhaps you have just changed it - but the button still fails to open the door. Hold down the unlock button while turning the key inside the vehicle.

Keep it pressed in this way for fifteen seconds, then remove the key from the ignition and wait for about five seconds. At this point, pressing the lock button again will allow it to function normally.
