Actually I really do think this will save a great deal of money for so many bm owners. Thanks again.

Think of all those perfectly good key fobs just sitting there not being used! ​@@HouseandCarHacks

I have a 2012 BMW X1, came back from holiday and had a battery warning light for the key on the dash. Despite driving 600 miles in 2 days it didn't charge fully, so I parked the car on the driveway, connected a 12v AGM battery charger to the charging posts under the bonnet, had my grandad park his car behind mine and then left my car unlocked, with the key in it and ignition on overnight.
Sure enough, key has worked great since then. Might help some people who have a driveway, I'd never do this if I didn't have a drive. But with that said, you can always take the physical key out, leave the key in the car and then lock the car with the physical key from the outside. But I wouldn't advise someone to do that.
Blocking my car in with another car on the drive seemed the safest way to do it :)

I've heard of that method too, good call, but I reckon this cordless phone charger idea is a real winner. I wonder how many tens of thousands of keyfobs have been replaced unnecessarily?!

Best key fob video I've ever seen, well done ❤😂

[@HouseandCarHacks]

Thank you! 😃

[@ashmclure8263]

Just to let you know that I got round to trying this and it worked on two of my three keys! Can't thank you enough!😂😂

Do you want to sell a charged spar? Lol

[@nathangardner3229]

I just brought a old 1 series didn’t even know you about the fob so thanks 👍🏻

Hope it helps, thanks for commenting

@@HouseandCarHacks well I just brought a wireless charger on eBay for a £5 hopefully will keep it at optimal performance? 🔌

[@speedydriving777]

Really good info, a first for youtube I think. Do you think this would work with any cordless phone charger?

[@HouseandCarHacks]

I can't see why not as the tech must be very similar. thanks for commenting.

[@poinsettias]

Thank you so much will try now

[@HouseandCarHacks]

I hope it works for you. Try different positions if it doesn't work first time.
