Everything You Need to Know About Keyless Keys

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Key

Video tutorial

Many people wonder if keyless keys are secure, and many still prefer the traditional key for greater reliability. Let's clear up any doubts.

One concern is: if the battery dies, how do I get into the car? There is a mechanical solution, as there is a physical key inside, called a "blade", which is used to open the door. The driver's handle is split in two, and there is a small pin at the bottom of the smaller part.

Insert the key from below, and you will find a lock under the plastic cover where you can insert your physical key to open the door. To start the vehicle, you can place the remote, even if dead, on the steering column (or on the ignition button), and the vehicle will start anyway.

But remember to change the battery afterwards.
