Is your flip key not opening anymore? Here is a quick and easy guide on how to tension the spring inside your remote.
We used a Hyundai key to demonstrate but the process is the same for most flip keys.

I was waiting for when you said "and for those keys that don't have a screw....." 🤣

The ones that dont have a Screw- theres a battery cover on the back of the key u just pull off and the Battery and screw is underneath

Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial video! It works on my keys. I have searched this tutorial in my native tongue without results but finally i'm here. Great!

Great video! The first time I closed the key shell, I didn't realize that I needed to stretch the spring in order to let the flip work. That was really helpful!

Omg, saved me. Opened it up, and the spring popped out. Didnt lose it. Thank you so much !

I just bought a 2022 Toyota with that type of key. It doesn't have a screw. How do I open it? It won't spring out all the way. 💁🏼‍♀️

I was able to get the part open where the battery is but I couldn't the other part open where the key and the spring is

If yours does NOT have a screw you can just turn the metal piece counterclockwise and seat it.

Hello, i don't find the blade expand smoothly when i press the button, should i spray the blade with WD-40, what would you recommend me please?

@RemotePro1 2 жыл бұрын

Using WD-40 is not recommended in case this goes onto the circuit board of the key which can cause damage. If the key is not flipping is generally due to a bent spring which will need replacing.

Sorry to hear that, i recommend taking it to a locksmith

@tracycooper2856 Ай бұрын

I have the same. There's definitely tension in the spring now but pressing the button doesn't cause it to flip up. I have definitely tensioned the right way as the key flips up when I take the plastic pieces apart again.
