Wet SmartKey

dead_eye · 07-06-2004, 01:53 AM

Are these things designed to get wet? The buttons and such look watertight. I ask because I fell into a friend's pool the other day with my keys in my pocket. I can still start my car and lock/unlock the doors.

take out the metal key. use the metal key to remove the back cover. you push in the plastic piece with the key, while sliding out the end of the key. heard to explain, check the owners manual, i know it says it in there.
