Can I start my BMW with a dead key fob?

If your BMW key fob is dead, you won't be able to unlock your vehicle remotely or, if your BMW has Comfort Access, use keyless entry. However, you can still access and start your car manually.

Take a look at this video to learn this cool trick about your BMW key fob! #shorts

What's great about this video is how succinct it is. All the info you need, not a single word of fluff, perfect for someone who is stuck and stressed.

Am I gonna have to pay $18/ month in the future to do this?

[dabestdakotan]

So how much does that cost monthly, is it more or less than having heated seats

[thekingofgamers]

Do people Not know this almost all cars that have an electronic key have an extra mechanical key

Life saver. Came out club fob wouldn't open doors. Had no clue how to open. 😅

[mhmyuhh]

lol the only reason people are asking wether or not it’s gonna cost money to do this is because bmw is making everything in their cars subscription based, so in a way they’re making fun of the car

I have a 2015 640i, Accidentally washed my key fob. I knew about the key pull, i saw the key arrows a while ago, now i know what its for. Started my car. I was worried i would have to pay the dealership, Thanks😊

[randomyoutuberr]

Thanks man I was waving my dead keyfob over my steering like a mad man.

[dericgee]

Nothing happened when I tried. So I’m going to have the vehicle towed. Thanks for the succinct video though

Question: would the car still turn on if the battery is dead?

We don't have this hole on our BMW, it is from 2015, so, I think, you have to get in an other way.

[albertocastillo]

Oh man, I can see people stealing door handle caps on peoples BMWs 😅

[phillipcollins]

Nothing wrong with the key start from 2000s

It's weird those keys never work on Mercedes. It's like nobody cared to even ever test them at the factory. Figured they'd force you to get it fixed. 🏭
