What is a car key?
A car key is the key to your car. Without it, you can’t start the engine or drive away. A car key may have a small metal U-shaped part at one end, called a “transponder chip.” If your car has this feature, the chip stores your vehicle’s unique identification number, or VIN.
When you buy a new car, the dealership will give you a new key and transponder chip. You need to bring in your old key and transponder chip to get a new one. If you lose your car key, you can usually just go to a nearby convenience store and buy a new one. Car keys usually come in pairs – one for the driver’s side and one for the passenger’s side.
What is a car key remover?
A car key remover is an essential tool for anyone who needs to move a car with no ignition key. These devices are small enough to fit in a pocket and use the leverage of a hammer to break the key off the car’s ignition coil.
There are different models of car key removers, but all work essentially the same way. You insert the tool into the keyhole on one side of the car and use your other hand to strike the tool against the other side of the keyhole, breaking the key off the ignition coil.
How to move a car without a key?
If you have a car with no ignition key, there are a few things that you can do in order to move it. The first thing that you will want to do is locate someone who has a key for your car and ask them to help you move it. Once you have located someone with a key, all of the following steps will need to be followed in order:
1) Make sure that the car is completely off of the ground and resting on its wheels.
2) Place towels or blankets over the front and back of the car so that it does not make any noise while moving it.
3) Have the person with the key turn the ignition switch to “ACC” (automatic) or “ON” (manual) position before handing them over to you.
4) Once they have handed over their key, start moving the car by pushing from the rear tires and pulling from the front tires. Do not attempt to use force when moving the car as this could damage it.
5) When moving the car, take care not to hit any objects or people along the way. Drive slowly and carefully until you have transferred it to your desired location.
How to make a car key out of an old phone charger
If your car doesn’t have a battery, or you’ve lost the key to it, there are a few methods you can use to get around this.
One of the simplest methods is to make a car key out of an old phone charger.
You’ll need:
-An old phone charger
-A Phillips head screwdriver
-A piece of wire about 6 inches long
-Various tools for disassembling electronic devices (soldering iron, wire cutters, etc.)
1. Remove the head of the screwdriver by unscrewing it from the handle. This will give you two flat ends.
2. Strip one end of the wire about 1/4 inch wide and long enough to reach from one end of the screwdriver blade to the other. Twist each end securely so that the wire is covered in plastic and metal.
3. Connect one end of the stripped wire to one end of the screwdriver blade (the “positive” terminal). Connect the other end of the stripped wire to another part of your car with some kind of connector (like a fuse box), or better yet, directly connect it to your battery. Leave enough slack in the wire so that you can easily move it
Conclusion
If your car won’t start, there are a few things you can do to try and get it going. If the battery is dead, you may need to jump it. If the problem isn’t with the battery, you may need to reset the computer or change a fuse. But if none of those things work, sometimes you’ll have to move the car no ignition key. Here’s how:
