Video tutorial

In this short video guide, you will see how to open the door of your vehicle with a flat remote key battery, specifically on a third-generation Volkswagen Passat. To open the vehicle, simply remove the cover of the lock cylinder by leveraging with something thin like a plastic lever or a flat screwdriver.

At this point, insert the remote key and turn it to the left to open the door; then you just need to replace the remote battery (you will find the tutorial for replacement on our website)!

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
