Installation / DIY Guide
Replacing your key shell is a straightforward DIY project. Heres a simple guide:
1. Gather Your Tools: You'll need a small flathead screwdriver (or plastic pry tool) and your new key shell.
2. Open Your Old Key: Use the screwdriver to carefully pry open the seam of your old key case to split it into two halves. Remove the battery and the green circuit board.
3. Transfer Electronics: Place the circuit board and battery into the corresponding slots in the new casing.
4. Swap the Key Blade (If needed): Use a small pin or paperclip to release the pin holding the key blade in the old case and insert it into the new one.
5. Snap It Shut: Once everything is in place, firmly press the two halves of the new casing together until you hear it click closed.
6. Final Test: Test all buttons on your car to make sure everything is working perfectly.
