How To Fix a Flip Car Key and Tension the Spring

Is your flip key not opening anymore? Here is a quick and easy guide on how to tension the spring inside your remote.

We used a Hyundai key to demonstrate but the process is the same for most flip keys.

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!

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