- Hi, this video will show you a problem we found with this broken Ford Flip Key that will not flick out anymore.
We had to break the case open to find out what was wrong, and then we re-cased the key
This is shown with a link to an earlier video from last year.

Your the key master!!! My key was not working properly and all it was, was the little pin sticking out! Pushed it back in and it's like it's brand new!!! Thank you😊
That's great! Thanks for the feedback :)
YESSS RIGHT LOL THAT WAS BUGGING ME FOREVER

Thanks to your video I found that I had the same problem with the pin sticking out. A quick push with my nail and it’s working 100% again. Brilliant ❤️
Great stuff, such a silly little fault. Glad you got it sorted :)
ok but the
"strong design ford engineers, well done~ , a marvelous piece of engineering there "
absolutely sent me lmaooo
I try my best....
I had the "protruding pin" thing, too. I was assuming the mechanism was gummed-up somehow, with pocket lint. Thanks for saving me from pointlessly opening the case.
You're welcome Rick, this is common on many different keys ;)
Many thanks for the video... the pin was sticking out and hung up the key... simple fix !!!!
Great stuff, yes we see this often. Glad it helped :)
Absolutely brilliant! Pushed the pin back in and presto, works like a charm. Thanks!
That's great Douglas, such a simple little fix! Thanks for watching :)
Thanks for this. I had to push the pin back in on my key. Much appreciated!!
Hi Jon, yes a really simple little fix, thanks for watching and the feedback :)
thank you, had a problem with both my keys, after looking could see the pin slightly out, pushed it back in works fine, crazy flaw in manufacturing
I know, we see this a lot! Thanks for watching :)
Thanks man, pushing the spring worked for me. Thanks a ton
That's great, thanks for watching :)
Fixed my key thanks to you!! Thanks for the video
Great stuff Dan, thanks for the feedback :)
Same thing was happening to mine. I got a pair of needle nose visegrips and just pinched the pin back in and it worked great. Thanks for the tip.
Yes quite common this little problem. Glad it helped :)
Pin pushed back and now it works!!!! Cheers guys
Great stuff Richard, such a silly little problem but quite common :)
thank you, i found the pin for my kia was sticking out and pushed it pack in with a fork and that fixed it
Watch out for the pin moving again. With both Kia and Hyundai keys a small crack appears and it lets the pin move.
Both of the keys to my Ford Focus estate 2014 have this problem even though I only use the car once a week. Rubbish keys. Thank you for the video
Hi, yes they are terrible. Glad it helped and thanks for watching :)
Many thanks, as always the Ford user guide was hopeless!
Glad it helped Stuart :)
Adjusting the pin worked!
Great stuff, really pleased it helped :)
Steve wie immer Daumen hoch
Ihre Unterstützung ist immer willkommen, Boss, danke
Gotta show how to open it!
Hi, here's a video we made on how to change the battery and case on a Ford Custom key. We don't recommend you reuse the case as the are originally glued together. Hope it helps.

Mine had the same little broken off bit.
Thanks for the feedback :)
I just removed the small piece of broken metal and re-assembled. Then i ran a bead of liquid cyano all round it. Seems to work ok.
Nice! Saved you needing a new case!
Hello car key man !! My ford flip key isn't closing. And it's becoming very long. Can you please help me fix it?
Difficult without seeing it, sorry
very good
Thanks :)
I got two of the replacement key fobs put the first together easily then on the second got ahead of myself and put the back cover on without putting the battery in, the writing inside where the key sits it says to press down, but I'm not sure where it means.
Hi, from memory there is a small tab that need pressing in. You'll find it if you flip open the key and look on the battery cover side , in the space where the key blade folds into
Is there a way to convert an old non-slip tibbe key to the newer style b max flip key as shown in this video?
Hi, I'm sure ebay will sell kits for these
LOL IT WAS THAT PIN LOL.... I TAUGHT IT WAS NORMAL THANKS
Such a little pin causing so much trouble ;)
Can you do Ford ranger 2011 px key, very similar to this one however it doesn’t have a screw. Cannot figure it out. Thanks
Hi, well the original keys do not have scres as far as I know, they are all glued, or plastic welded together. It's only the replacement cases that have the screws
Do you have a website to order replacement key fob cases? My 64 plate ford transits key fob has started being funny sometimes it works and unlocks sometimes it doesent work so you have to use the key being in a trade the central locking fob is a time saver so I’m figuring I need a replacement case as it’s the type where the battery is soldered in :/.
Hi Brian, we used to sell the cases and fix the keys. However, we've found that even when the battery is changed and the case changed, some of the time the buttons still don't work, and we haven't found out why. My advice is to splash out on a new key from a good Auto Locksmith
What she had to call the AA bevy she could not manually fold her key back to start the car
Can anyone please explain why the keyfob / key I have which is almost identical to the one on this video does not fit the one and only door lock on my vehicle? I assume the key is in case the battery in the fob dies, but I can't open the door with it and to me it defies all logic!
Hi Dale, if your key blade doesn't fit the lock, it can only be one of three things
1. Your key blade is a different shape to your lock
2. Your key blade is worn
3. Your door lock is faulty
I think you need a local expert to help you
Where can I get that mini pin?
They come with a Ford blade, we get them from the dealer.
Is it possible to open case without destroyin it?
Saw your other video, thanks.
No worries, glad it helped :)
What if they has actuallu broken. Like its attached but broken off lol
Hi Samantha, sorry just seen this. It's quite common for the blade to snap, did you get a new blade fitted?
Mine just isn't staying closed.
Hi, it could be the mechanism inside, which means you need a new case. You can do this yourself buy you'll need to file the blade down to make it fit in the new case I expect. Have you seen our video on this?
There's no video
and here I was thinking they would shown how to pull the key apart.... well disappointed ... why make a video and then don't skow how to pull it apart???
Hi Laurence, we do have a different video showing this, did you find it?
@@TheCarKeyMan No, couldn't find it (too many). How about giving the link in the video itself or here in the comments please.
Jesus show us how to open key ffs
