I don't comment on how-to videos very often but I've got to thank you big time for your video. I'd looked at a bunch in order to learn how to repair/replace a broken Volvo key fob. Your progression, lighting, and timing were perfect (all of which no one else really figured out). In other videos, there was voice over that really wasn't that helpful and you did it with only background music. It was great. I'd already screwed up on one attempt and re-ordered another blank and with your help completed it correctly in 10 minutes. You're very thoughtful for helping others like you did. Thanks
@@Daninater I looked a a few videos, I think this is the one that had the best explanation about the key and spring assembly. I did not glue my key back together as this person shows. Be careful not to break the transponder when you move it to a new key fob. I used ticky tac/poster putty/tack-n-stick moldable putty to hold mine in place which allows me to remove it easily if I need to change the fob again, which I did about 8 month after the first one I changed. ua-cam.com/video/ZPw3l0PyztY/v-deo.html
Why did you use the "Remote Maker" machine? Since you used the RFID capsule and circuit board from the original fob, it seems like the Remote Maker machine should be unnecessary, right?
great video. someone has a programmer and figured how to swap it, it was just a matter of time. i would like to order a new case for mine, i can do the swap, but can you just swap the key over??? instead of having a new one cut???
Great video, I spent 10 minutes just trying to open the battery replacement side of this fob. Now I’m stumped....... mine had NO battery, not sure what I need yet.
At :15 you make reference to ID 48 Chip I am assume that this is the transponder chip that you hold in your hand at 3:35. Would the device you are using at :15 allow you to reprogram a transponder chip that was previously programmed to a different Volvo. I do understand that the remote part is at different section and programmed differently. I have 2 Volvo remote keys that were programmed to a prior Volvo (totaled) I owned and still have the pin codes that came with the remotes. I am just curious how familiar you are with programming the transponder section and the remote section of Volvo keys and just how much of my prior Volvo keys I can use on my different Volvo that use the same model number for the keys. My local Volvo dealership just orders them cut and programmed so they don't seem to know.
I have a question what did he program at the end? Cause I have a problem with cylindrical ignition lock itself, could I just swap new key blade from new cylindrical lock to old key fob?
My best guesses here. For the new key I believe he was using the key reader to simply test that the new key worked, ie it had power and all the buttons worked, and the chip was being read. Note when I say new, note the circuit is the old curcuit, or put another way that the key functions after the curcuit board transplant. For your question. In some/most (?) vehicles the Ignition Switch (this is the electrical part) and Lock Cylinder (part with lock tumblers) are separate. If you are having mechanical issues with the key, then yes you could get a junkyard lock cylinder and matching key and then switch out the blade. The security chip and FOB should still work as those did not change. Let me make a much better suggestion. Try to find if you can buy a lock cylinder and have it Re-Pinned to your existing key. Not sure if that service exists, but worth looking into. Or maybe local locksmith can Re-Pin your new or used lock cylinder to match your existing key. And I think the dealer can sell a lock cylinder pinned to your key. This way the key will still open the doors and trunk.
How to move the key over? Why not show us that... The music did not help either, some guidance (explanation) would be better. Do I have to destroy the old housing? My key does not pop out when I press the blank button...Others than that, it's working fine
The yellow button turns on some lights on the car. like "find your way home, lights". Puddle lights (those under the mirrors), parking lights as well as plate lights. Useful if its dark.

Thank you for the appreciation
It keeps us motivated to make more videos like this
What kind of screwdriver did you use? I'm looking all over for it
Thanks brother! Really appreciate you taking the time to make this and put it out there! Worked perfectly.
Really appreciate you taking the time to make this and put it out there! just could not get it. You made it work perfectly thanks
Heck yeah brother this saved me money taking it to a dealership. Thank you!
Thanks for the video. Didn't want to mess mine up so just making sure I was going the right direction. Thanks again and keep em coming!
Great video: thank you! I'd like to know how to transfer the key blade itself from the old fob to the new one.
Doing God's work man keep it up!!!!
Cheers for breaking my key! Now I need to spend £100+ on a new one!
FYI, not everyone can do DIY, do not try this at home, lol
U spend £100 for a new key cover? Or whole key. Cuz if u spend that much money on just a cover ur stupid then
Gracias por el video. Me ha ayudado mucho.. Un saludo desde malaga.
Couldn’t get my old immobilizer out so I had to take that half of the old key by my ignition😂😂
Instead of cutting the blank key that came with the new fob, can the old one be swapped over instead?
Yes it can!
@@o.-.-.---...-..----...-.-. I'd also like to see how the key and spring can be moved to the new fob as well. Do you have a video with that?
@@chrishoman8841 Did you ever find a video for this?

You can just swap the old key into it but you must to insert that little chip to it too!
Thanks - helped me a lot.
Great video, I spent 10 minutes just trying to open the battery replacement side of this fob. Now I’m stumped....... mine had NO battery, not sure what I need yet.
Great video... just the aftermarket one I wound the spring clockwise instead of counter clockwise
My transponder seems to be glued in place. How do I safely remove it. Yours just fell out freely?
Do you really need the "remote maker" machine? Can't you just swap the board and put it into a new fob? Great video
Yes that can be done
I had the same question, thanks!
Could I use a key shell from another similar volvo and reprogram it?
Where can I find a replacement or shop for d repair of may remote . Thank you

Hello I have a broken key for Volvol just like that I’m having problems on how to fixed it😰
How to move the key over? Why not show us that... The music did not help either, some guidance (explanation) would be better. Do I have to destroy the old housing?
My key does not pop out when I press the blank button...Others than that, it's working fine
I didnt even know I could do this! My key wont stay inside my fob and just flops in and out. Its a floppy fob lol. Might need to do this
Boa noite amigo..como faço pra programar o controle novo ?parou de funcionar o controle..aí comprei um novo.mas não sei como programar
What does the yellow button do my key fob won't work is their a way to reprogram it ?
The yellow button turns on some lights on the car. like "find your way home, lights". Puddle lights (those under the mirrors), parking lights as well as plate lights. Useful if its dark.
Hi! Is it possible to change buttons functions? For example open the mirrors outside.
paks ifluection you need an CFE unit for your vehicle. It’s Volvo only and plugs into the ODB port giving you a ton of different functions
where can man buy or what is this broken lamp name
Can you tell me how works your remote maker kd900 ?
