Use a hard plastic object to push de part he says to push,keeping de the other part fixed on a hard surface like a table.hope that helps,take care and don't injure yourself doing that👍

Thanks for the excellent tip, Did you manage to get it open?

Use a pair of curved scissors and put them in the hole and use them to lever it apart. Just worked for me

Well done on helping, we see lots of these keys destroyed and still not open! Easier when you know how :)

The clever people at Renault didn't make it very clear. But when you know how it's not too bad. Glad it helped :)

Completely agree with you, Arian. That was me as well.. :) Thank you Car Key Man!!

Hi, yes this is a proper puzzle if you don't have the instructions! Well made though and once you know how, not too bad to do. Thanks for the feedback :)

That's great Julie :)

It's a really tricky key to open if you don't know how, glad it helped and thanks fro watching ;)

Well done, this is a bit tricky and you need strength, so you've done well

You're very welcome :)

You're very welcome, thank you for the kind words :)

Thanks for watching Christoper, glad it helped :)

That’s great Annette, these are a tricky key to open, so I’m pleased it helped. Hope life in Sweden is good, my son has just had a trip to Abisko!

Thanks Arthur , yes once you get it moving it's not too bad. Glad it helped

I let half the key rest on the edge of the table, and the other half outside. Then I pushed down the key and it opened in an instant. Thanks!

Hi Tim, what a stupid idea eh! You just need to get into the boot, a lever under the seat would be a step forward! Thanks for watching and your feedback :)

Only just realised this today morning 🤦🏾‍♀️

Hi Paul, it's quite tight, but it just needs levering out

Great stuff Mateus, really pleased it helped :)

You're welcome, hope life in Poland is good!

You're welcome, pleased it helped :)

Hi, thanks. Yes this is a bit of an unusual key and the urge is simply to force it apart. Really appreciate your feedback :)

Hi natalie, yes a strange way to undo this key, but glad it helped :)

Most peope struggle with these, well done :)

Yes that's correct Diogo

@@TheCarKeyManoh ok it's just it isn't much easy too find that specefic model in local stores these days, but I will buy online. Thanks for the quick response and continue with excellent job!

That’s great news, never been to Croatia, where do you recommend for a city break ?

@@TheCarKeyMan for the first time, probably any place on the coast

That's great, these are a bit frustrating if you don't know how!

Hi Phil. if you open it up and put into a sealed container of dry rice, you may get away with it

I know, this key is tricky for us sometimes too, so glad it helped you :)

Thanks Andrew :)

@@TheCarKeyMan ñññññññ los

This type of key needs to be ordered via chassis and coded using diagnostics

Hi, have you seen this video we made? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qpuIZqWSz5vLl58.html

Niec one, glad it helped :)

You're welcome, thanks for the feedback :)

Hello. This is a common problem. The back of the lock normally breaks. The door panel needs removing to diagnose the fault. Take the door lock out of the car and see if it works out of the car. The simplest way to sort it out is with a new door lock.

@@TheCarKeyMan i will try to do what you've told, thank you very much.

Let us know how you get on

You're welcome Maria :)

You're welcome, these are a nightmare to open if you don't know how!

Hi, no not after a key battery change

Hi, sorry I'm not sure what your fob is like, we don't use them, so haven't seen one

You're welcome samuel. glad it helped you :)

Yes Wim, thanks for the information

That's great Diego, thanks for the feedback :)

Hi, sorry I'm not sure

Hello, no, there's no programming needed

@@TheCarKeyMan thanks

Thanks!

Hi Alexandra. Ok, so do you mean that the key doesn't turn left or right?

Yes, it works on the ignition ( to start the car ) just fine, but not on the doors, and it scares me because if one day my key batteries run out, i won't be able to unlock the doors.

The usual reason for this is that someone has replaced the ignition, because the original one has gone faulty. Or maybe the door lock has been attacked with a screwdriver and replaced with a random lock. Does the ignition key fit the fuel cap?

Yes, it fits the fuel cap and the ignition to start the car, and the key that i have is like the one on this video, if i click the button it unlocks automatacly, it simply doesn't lock / unlock if i try to stick the key in the section of the doors and try to spin, it doesn't spin... so if 1 day i run out of batteries on my key, i won't be able to open my car.

Ok, it sounds like the lock is broken, or someone put a new one in and lost the key ( this is very common) You just need a key made to it ( a good Auto Locksmith can do this ) or a new lock fitted

You're welcome Tomasz : )

They are very tight, but it’s the only way it opens, honest!

Glad it helped Stefan :)

Hello Rayaan, sorry I missed this. Do you still need help?

@@TheCarKeyMan Yes I do, thanks

You're welcome, they can be a bit of a problem to open if you don't know how..

You're welcome Fredrick :)

Great question....with these keys it shouldn't make a difference, so don't rush

@@TheCarKeyMan ok thx for getting back to me

You're welcome Dawid, glad it helped you .

There is one last way, do you still need help?

@@TheCarKeyMan If you could help me with this, it would be awesome. My fingers almost have blisters from pushing and it is hardly moving (just about half a mm I think)

You're welcome, thanks for watching :)

You're welcome, thanks for watching :)

Yes indeed.....thanks for watching :)

You're welcome Mika, glad it helped you, they can be a bit tricky to open

Hi Dylan. Did it work before you changed the key battery ?

You're welcome, thank you for watching :)

You're welcome Angelo :)

You're welcome :)

Oh no! they are so tight, I hope you recover soon! thanks for watching :)

Push against something hard, like the edge of a table: my hands are quite strong but I couldn't exert the pressure enough to split the key on my own.

Hi, A couple of things. Have you ever seen the key button working? Is it a car you''ve had for a while?

There isn't a separate thing to do after changing the battery, it should just work. Does the button inside the car that does the central locking work?

Hi i am in the exactly same situation. like Emma above. i can not start my car after i change the battery. but i can unlock the car from the kew with the new battery. any tips @The Car Key Man

You're welcome :)

Hi, it should just work ;)

You're welcome :)

You're welcome :)

Hi, did it work before you touched the battery?

Thanks :)

Hi Matilda, are you in the UK?

Hi Dean, do you mean the battery is flat in the key or the car?

@@TheCarKeyMan hiya basically it still works but randomly decides not to. I got in it this morning, solid red light and the van started 1st time. I then went for diesel at the petrol station and when i returned to the van, i inserted the key and... flashing red light so didnt even bother trying to start it. Weirdly i have to lock the doors, unlock them again using the key and if i do this 4 or 5 times the red light eventually recognises my key and solid red light. Its annoying as hell because if im with a customer at work and im sat locking and unlocking my van theyll be wondering what im doing haha. But it sometimes takes 4 or 5 goes before the light finally goes solid red. Id happily take the immobiliser out as its driving me mad.

@@TheCarKeyMan also just to add. I have a spare key but that 1 didnt have a battery so i changed the back part of 1 key fob and added it to the other that has the battery and it still is intermittent which makes me think it wont be the key as neither works 100% of the time. Is there a way to check the chip myself?

@@TheKDRmusic Hi, what year is it? and model

@@TheCarKeyMan 2006 kangoo

You're welcome, thanks for the feedback :)

Thanks Jaster :)

Makes you mad if you don't know how with this key!

yet I had to use a vice to push it apart. my key has had a rough life at the edges and did not want to slide by hand. Or maybe I have something with exaggerated large tools for small jobs when I become emotionally unstable.

Hi Jenni, they really are so tight. There's no other way that I know to open them I'm afraid

Hi Steve, yes I agree, I will try and add this technique on

Thanks for watching :)
