Wow this video really saved me!!!... I left my keys in a bag of gifts with my 19 yr old grandson... We both drove back to our respective homes which was an hour and a half away in different directions!!... That's when I discovered I didn't hv my keys!!!....once at home my spare key had a dead battery at 1:30 in the morning!!!... and I have to be in work at 9:00AM!!!... So he'll overnight the keys and I'll have them in two days and I don't have to spend $40 bucks for 2 days for an Uber or locksmith!... Tks sooo much for this video!!!...

Is there a mechanical key for the 2024 Kona?

[@Eroc_419]

❤

[@thesetruths1404]

My 2011 Sonata has a fob slot in the middle storage console to put the fob in. Is this the older style?

[@fixandplay826]

I’m not sure exactly what you mean about a spot to put your fob

[@thesetruths1404]

@@fixandplay826 2011 thru 2013 Hyundai have a slot to put fob, sort of like how a USB card inserts into a computer.

[@dootdootington386]

Funny. It didn't work pressing with the key, but worked when I put it on the steering wheel for a second.

[@clyde19788]

i lost my keyfob cover and just have the valet key. can i still use it to turn on the car?

[@fixandplay826]

It’s worth a shot. Try it and let me know

[@alannahamilton259]

Anyone know how long this works for ? My fob was run over by a car today, just my luck, but it starts when I hold the key to the button. Will this work for the next week until I can replace it ??

[@fixandplay826]

I bet it might work forever!! It’s just inconvenient to do it all the time

[@meganarmstrong6482]

This does NOT work forever!!! My car started when I did this once, and then it didn't work again until I changed my fob battery

[@paulettefondren4986]

I'm stuck and listened to your video. I opened car with the key and followed directions but the car still won't start! Help!

[@fixandplay826]

Did you depress the brake while trying to start the car?

[@RobertPopp-ci5zx]

Sorry founle thimbs up

[@Nunya773]

How to get code reader to work? Car knows no key is in. Where is the keyhole?

[@txlady1049]

This happened to me last week. Car wouldn't start, got the message Key Not Found. Pressed the start button with the key fob -- nothing happened, car wouldn't start. We called Hyundai assistance, who sent a tow truck.The driver jump-started the car, and the key fob has been working fine ever since. Anyone else have that happen?

[@fixandplay826]

Sounds like your car battery was dead

[@yusuffolaoye7749]

After replacing the key fob battery,is still saying key not detected

[@fixandplay826]

Make sure installed the battery correctly

[@SundayNightGames]

doesn’t work if it’s completely dead lol :/ like non of my dash lights are on or anything

[@fixandplay826]

Your car battery is probably dead

[@amnasouai3]

my car wont start even if i press it with the key

[@fixandplay826]

Did you depress the brake while you were trying to start the car?

[@davidplotkin5173]

I have lost the fob but have the mechanical key (they came apart). Can the mechanical key alone start the car? I have 2014 Santa Fe sport with push button start.

[@fixandplay826]

Sorry, the car will not start without the fob. The mechanical key only lets you get in the door or trunk

[@blacktornado5212]

[@iamyoungcashnosleep1562]

Yeah this cap. He must be paying all yall. Man if it’s dead it’s dead ain’t no starting that junt Oml. Unless it get a surge of energy from somewhere that shi will not work. Already tried that in plenty cars

[@ggmochie2615]

Didn't work. Car start button said "On" but the car was not on

[@fixandplay826]

I’m sorry it didn’t work Did you press the brake when you tried to start the car?

[@ggmochie2615]

@@fixandplay826 Yes. I think it was a loose connection on the car battery - we noticed while jump starting it that a bolt was loose. Let's hope that tightening that loose bolt fixed it!

That sounds like it could be the culpret
