    Nice!
    I cut open the key for my e39 (diamond key), that was pretty hard. Had to change the case as the border or seam of the housing was in poor condition. But at least it works and looks new. :-)

    I washed my e 90 key and I split it open on the groove with a flat head and hair dryer it for about 15-20 seconds until it was almost hot and then it worked completely fine

    What part will i need to transfer in order to clone this onto a working fob. I have a key which is draining battery fast and it has been checked by a key guy and am hoping he has done all this and returned it back with issue still occurring....

      I don't know the answer, but I tried cleaning it gently by hand with an alcohol swab and it didn't work. I guess I'm about to buy an ultrasonic cleaning machine.

    Hi, I have a key fob with the same situation. After I wiped the corrosion residue off, it appears the buttons are firing based on current reading but it cannot unlock the car.
    I’m think of using an ultrasonic bath to give a shot, any suggestions? Thank you!

      Hello! you can try the ultrasonic bath! but there is a big chance to be compromise!

    I have similar problem. Key got washed in washing machine. However, after changing battery, it works perfect for a few days and then battery dies. Any suggestions on how to fix? I’m good with microsoldering so can try to repair. Please help with any instructions. I’m subscribed! 😊

    what causes low battery for the remote on the dashboard ....despite it's not?

    • @MOvidiu
      @MOvidiu  2 года назад

      Usually is the battery , even if it is ''new'' to you , it can be an old stock , or extremely rarely the remote control have a problem .

    • @lou007
      @lou007 2 года назад

      The car battery? It's a bit old but no warnings yet!
      The key battery I measured it with multimeter shows 2.8v !!!

    • @MOvidiu
      @MOvidiu  2 года назад

      We are talking about the Key battery , and if it shows 2,8 volts is not good !! it need to have at least 3V normally 3,2...3.3!

      The key is an inert object, like your wallet, phone, and TV remote control. You, the user, need to think and manage the placement of your stuff ! I know it is frustrating when they get damaged or lost , but you are responsible for them!
