Flip Key modification.

[taccord12]

lol way to bring back and old thread but i've just done the conversion on my 09 Euro keys with the ebay one that longers bought. Have the same trouble as him, the key doesn't turn... other than that the indicators doesn't blink anymore when i lock and unlock, but it can still unlock / lock. wonder why it's like that...



edit: ok for some reason the indictors are working now and the key seems to fit all the way in instead of half way, but it still wont turn what so ever... i think i just need to get a better lock smith to get it fixed?

Been there done that with my rb1 flip key.

That's locksmith's crappy job to cut the key blade. The third locksmith i went to finally could do the job. Ended up ordering 2 additional key blades from ebay seller to get it working.

Find a decent locksmith to do the job

dont do it if you have an 09+ -_-

I did the one on ebay. You either use the one they seond you and program it to open your car or you use your oem one and pull apart your key and use the standard one.

Make sure you put the little magnetic immobilisor thing in with the key when you do it lmao .. oh and also, dont go to a shonky key cutter coz they had to redo mine 4 times to get it right with the length and tip of the key

sorry ! wrong facts, confirmed it works with 2009+ Euros just have to modify the inside of the plastic shell a little to fit the remote part inside the shell (the same model as the one longer has, 3 button honda flip key bought from Ebay).

btw,on our owner manual page 138, it said south african model comes with a retractable key, I am wondering what are the chance to get the OEM one from South Africa?

kryptonite, where can u put the immobilser chip into the new flip key housing?
I purchased http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-F...ts_Accessories
from ebay as well.
It is for my 06 euro.
I've done all the things like chips transfer etc.
it works fine except i dont know where to put the little magnet like immobiliser chip as there seems to be no room available to put it.
Cheers

^^ open the red circle part carefully by unscrew two screws. do it slowly as inside contain a spring. you will see a slot once the metal part removed and immobilizer chip slot in the plastic round part attached with key.
