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.

    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?

    Re-Locking a Locked Car

    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

    Smaller Key fob?

    Does anyone know of any smaller key fobs on the market? Or any DIY / 3D Printed options? All I need is the fob and maybe the unlock button, but I can live without that really. And I defiantly don't need the silly back-up key. That can stay at home in the safe or in my man purse ? I've tried...

    MG5 key fob skin

    My MG5 key fob button was pressed by another set of keys in my pocket and the plastic button broke off.

    PHEV - Key Fob not working after battery replacement

    I’ve just replaced the key fob battery but it’s not working. The battery (tested with my meter and is the correct voltage - i.e. not flat) is in the correct way round, there‘s been nothing damaged within the key, and the spare key works fine (so it’s not the car). If it needs re-pairing, does...
