How To Fix a Flip Car Key and Tension the Spring

[@nayandave2651]

It's so easy, I can't believe I couldn't figure it out. Thank you so much for this video, guys!

[@myolamanagement4114]

Just recently had an issue with my key. Such a big fright. This video really helped a lot. Thanks for your assistance 🎉😊

[@AngieHernandez-oe6ki]

This is the exact video I was looking for, I thought i had broken the spring and was going to have to buy a whole new key. Thank you for the explanation.

[@VinylGolfHammers]

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

[@rydeordieforever5364]

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

[@afakethrum]

When the fob is facing you, push on the release button and turn counterclockwise. It will release the button. Remember the position for smooth reassemble process.

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!

[@michaelgoff1799]

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

[@mugentuner]

Excellent bro.. I saw some variation vid of putting this back together and it was really bad. Yours was a life saver

[@zahirmoosa2257]

This helped so much thank you...three years later😅but a good 'to the point' video... appreciate it

[@michaelloong85]

Thank u, i fixed my key... just wandering around when i no idea how to fix the spring n found this useful video.

[@Shamap37]

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!

[@MrStolenpictures]

Dunno why I put up with my floppy key for so long. Thanks for the quick vid brother.

[@tammydonahue3709]

Thank you so much!! I have a new key fob and old and thought I'd just switch springs...Then both were not springing up. 😂 Awesome video!! CHEERS!!

[@RobertZrinski]

Great tip!

[@RemotePro1]

Glad it was helpful!

[@labrownzalabrownza194]

Thank you bro❤️❤️

[@Jen.E]

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. 💁🏼‍♀️

[@PaulHainesNJ]

I ran into the same issue and it took a while to find the answer. You need to take the battery cover off first. In the right-angle corner of the key ring there's an indentation for a flat screwdriver. Use that to pop the cover off. Remove the red rubber covering the battery and pop the battery out. On the back of the Toyota flip key fob there's an oval Toyota logo sticker. Carefully peel this off and the screw is underneath it. Take the screw out. At the bottom of the fob where the battery cover was, you'll need to again use a screwdriver to pop the bottom open. Then follow the rest of this video. Reassembling, the cut part of the spring fits in a little notch that you'll see. By the way, the Toyota Fob takes not quite 1 rotation to tension. In reality, my tension was fine but there was so much dust and dirt that the key was getting caught. There is another video I found. Though a bit bad because its not zoomed, it did help. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYW2aYF_e5eVers

[@Jen.E]

@@PaulHainesNJ Thank you

[@marco8004]

Thanks you helped me a lot

[@memeLocks256]

Thank you 🙏 😢

[@hungry_girl211]

Very usefell ❤❤❤

[@djssmom04]

Great video My key now has tension however it doesn't stay shut. But at least it's still opens

[@megan4475]

I had this issue when I wound the tension with two rotations, so took it apart again and just did one rotation when setting the tension and it's perfect now.

[@winnielee5864]

Very useful, thank u😊

[@hassaninstyledirectltd8880]

Fixed my key watching your video, many thanks.

[@cincar2225]

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]

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.

[@crissokelly7927]

can u do a battery change as well thanks

[@RemotePro1]

Here it is! kzbin.info/www/bejne/inaqonirjpqJg5o

[@B4IRUTUARU16]

[@guriudyahaan5373]

Thanks bro

[@miansalman1083]

Thanku soo much sir

[@jeremywaters1185]

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

[@siddharthsingh1833]

Thanks💫

[@OzzyJT]

It just won't click fully together any ideas?

[@M.Wsikani]

I have problem my 2 keys is not good the cover is broken top cover

[@carampange2472]

Muchas gracias amigo.

[@steveedmond9362]

I don't put much tension on it. Just a half turn is all i need

[@eddielangran]

Thank you

[@ALXMARTIN]

Mine didn’t explode when I opened it and I couldn’t get the button out of the key, now it’s worse.

[@bruhmandude555]

Ive got one that dosent shut all the way

[@vladyakovlev7079]

[@donmanner3155]

Great 👍 it help to to fix my key fob. Thanks a million.

[@VickiSalter-x5o]

My key won't stay in

[@willianvargasr6119]

Genial

[@dparkertex]

did every thing in this vid and still wont flip up

[@RemotePro1]

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

[@tracycooper2856]

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.
