key fob

A keychain (also key fob or keyring) is a small ring or chain of metal to which several keys can be attached. The length of a keychain allows an item to be used more easily than if connected directly to a keyring. Some keychains allow one or both ends to rotate, keeping the keychain from becoming twisted, while the item is being used.

A keychain can also be a connecting link between a keyring and the belt of an individual. It is usually employed by personnel whose job demands frequent use of keys, such as a security guard, prison officer, janitor, or retail store manager. The chain is often retractable, and therefore may be a nylon rope, instead of an actual metal chain. The chain ensures that the keys remain attached to the individual using them, makes accidental loss less likely, and saves on wear and tear on the pockets of the user.

    Is there a key combination to remote open the charging port door?

    Hi, This may be ridiculous, and I can't see anything in the manual. Several times when I've had the key in my back pocket, I've received a warning that the charging port door is open when getting into the car. The first few times I presumed I hadn't closed it properly, but I paid particular...

    HS PHEV - Automatic boot not opening/closing properly.

    So after 3 months of trouble-free motoring it seems I have the first glitch with my ‘new’ HS PHEV. When opening the boot this morning using the key fob I noticed that it did not fully open. I have it set to the highest setting. I loaded the boot and pushed the button on the car boot to close it...

    missing emergency key

    Our key fob battery went flat and we had to use the emergency key to get into the car. When I replaced the batteries in both fobs I noticed there was only one emergency key. Has anyone else found this in their key fobs ? Car is a 2023 phev.

    Window operation with keyfob

    I am sure on my MG 5 I could operate the windows with the key fob. I may be misremembering. But the S5 definitely doesn’t have this feature which is annoying. Is it a feature and I am doing something wrong or is it not?

    Potential Fix for MG4 Not Being Available in the App + Build Your Own Automations [Home Assistant]

    I think it’s a common issue for most MG4 owners that the car enters some kind of deep sleep mode where you can’t pull information from it anymore and therefore can’t, for example, preheat the car. My solution (when this happened to me at home) so far has been to go to my kitchen window with the...

    MG4 easy to steal?

    On my street there have been a few cars stolen, I also hear with the right skills and equipment it is possible to hack or somehow steal? Is the MG4 difficult to hack? What can be done to prevent or at least reduce risk?

    This evening I thought I may have knocked one of the buttons on the key fob in my pocket, so I pressed the lock button again on the key fob and noticed my hazards started flashing. I though this may be useful if trying to find a car if it flashes a couple of times, but it seemed to keep going...

    Anyone ordered a 'spare' or second 'Blade key' for their second Key Fob

    As it says on the title - My second Fob doesnt have a blade key in it - a) Should the second fob have a Blade key within? b) Anyone ordered a spare/second if they didn't have one - Was that easy ? c) Would a key cutter be able to replicate my original one or is it a MG specific job
