This may have already been posted somewhere…but it’s worth a re-post.

Poking around the internet, as usual….I stumbled across a couple videos.
I did some searching and found a Jeep Wrangler/Gladiator video.
If your key fob is dead or damaged…how you can start your vehicle.

Below is the Wrangler / Gladiator video


Here is one of the original videos (If you’re interested). Similar content…., you may want to research how this works for your non-jeep vehicles.

I switched to a Threedom fob. The hardest part is getting the little passive chip out that allows it to work with a dead fob battery.
