Thank you for this video. It was the best one that I found very helpful. You did a great job with the close-up to see what is being done

Every-video disassembling the fob people struggled and make it intimidating . You made it look easy‼️thank you.

Thanks mate, just bought a new VF key shell online and did the change over watching your vid. Just went down and tested it on the car and it worked perfectly.

Thanks, saved me $90 labour charge, only had to pay $10 for the case.

The video doesn’t SHOW THE MIST IMPORTANT PART. What is the correct position for the cam inside the key lock mechanism? How is it clocked? Can’t get mine to lock when stowed away.

Finally, a 7 year old video that shows the most effective process of switching out a key fob !!

This was the best video among several that I looked at. The only problem was that the nubs on the button that make everything line up for the key, did not line up in order to just use the old key with all of the other new parts of the new case. I used a Dremel tool to file down the inside slots on the case to finally get things working, to use the old key & button in the new case. The case was advertised to fit my model year, but it wasn't a 100% match.

Thank you so much for this video. This was the best ever. You made the process so understandable. I couldn't understand why others wanted to pop the pin out of the blade instead of just swapping it out. Thanks especially for the razor blade tip. Before watching your video, I was going to skip the frustration and just pay for it be done at the dealership. But because of your video I know I can "do-it-myself!"

The only person to open key without breaking it.

This was very helpful, thanks for showing us how to do this, your awesome IM Group!

[petemc]

Thanks. The spring location was what puzzled me. All sorted now.

[CBens-qsyj]

Thank you so much for taking the time to film this video. Of all the videos I viewed, your video was the most helpful😁Now I can get back to getting my life all the way together.

Oh P. S. - that alarm sound is like music to my ears.

Goo video, Vauxhall dealer Arnold Clark in Hanley Stoke on Trent wanted between £300 and £350 for a new programmed key fob.
I got 2 off Ebay for £7.30 and followed the video instructions, I now have 2 new keys for £7.30 not £600 or £700!

Just did this to 2 remotes for a 2014-15 (not sure which year exactly) Chevy Sonic, that glue on the factory remote made this 10 times the job it needed to be, I cut along the sides like shown in this video and even cut along the bottom (down where the fake chrome key ring ting is) and I got the bottom to pry apart but it still snapped halfway up the battery cutout, I tried prying inside the hole the key head spins in like this video showed but couldn't get anything to budge there, what I ended up doing after the bottom half of the back broke off was I took some very small flat head screw drivers and I slipped them in the groves where the 2 pieces of shell are glued together and used a hammer to carefully drive them toward the top of the shell and was eventually able to break enough of the glue bonds to get the circuit board to fall out.

Top 1 best video . Best recommendation I can give is where gloves . Human sweat can ruin the mother board and will have to end up getting a new key wish is 300$

Greetings from Slovenia. Did you manage to extend the range of the battery with this method? I can't find any conclusion. When I look at the graph in the movie, I see that after this experiment some cells have a slightly lower voltage than before.
Do you still have this Ampera at the moment?

[DJapan]

I don't know what MAP is but this looks the same as my Chevy Sonic fob, with different buttons. I was wondering if using a razor would help in the other videos I watched. Apparently it does!

[zethginex]

Thank god you exist god damn nice video.

[davidarnold]

This is a great video. I have done everything as instructed; at least 8 times, I have tried this. But for some reason, despite my attention to detail, my key constantly sprang out! I do it as explained meticulously, I spin it twice, but my key never stays in the locked position? I must be missing something subtle here, or perhaps my shell is just flawed?

You are a genius 👏 🙌
