I once tried a Nissan xterra key on an EOD and it opened. I was shocked |

RazaqMB: Stock Honda key cylinders won't open except it has had a malfunction or there's some other issues wrong somewhere. The EOD you refer to is even more secured than a camry. Even 98 model pencil light Camry, you can't unlock the door using another Camry key except its locks are picked. Even the barrels slots for keys aren't the same in both cars 3 Likes 1 Share |

I've seen a baby benz started with a fork through its ignition. I did a Lil research and found out the culprit is having too much weight dangling on your key ring in the ignition as it causes the ignition key to rub off the thread pattern in the ignition, in the long run..You'll figure almost any key can open your ignition. So... Ladies if you're fond of putting your whole house key and that teddy bear on your key ring, remember it does more harm than it looks cute. And for the gentlemen and guy men(my category) . I know you hate to scamper for opener everytime a profusely perspirating Odeku is standing on your table hence you carry one on your car key ring cos it's hard to forget your car keys , the best part is it's even more frustrating you rush to open the Odeku and the opener bends, we all know nothing makes a man motivated to drink than that crisp "Ptshh" sound hence you invest on a more original which is heavier. So ladies and gentle GUYmen, I hope I have been able to convince and not confuse you that having more weight on your ignition transforms your ignition to an ASHAWO key. In other news... Did you hear someone was banned for just strolling and posting a rare cassava ... Just strolling and cassava ooo 7 Likes 2 Shares |

This can happen to any brand of car or ordinary lock. The frequency with which a key is inserted into its key hole the more the wear of the key cylinder. At a point, Amy key with a similar structure willopen the cylinder. Let's try this exercise. Most Hondas have averagely 3-5 key cylinders. The most used ones are driver's door and ignition. The least used is the interior truck lock. Since its the least used it's usually the one on best condition. As a matter of fact and experience, my mum's 96 accord's original master key doesn't lock and unlock the trunk release lock but the copy we made when the car was new is the only key that works on the trunk release. The original key is worn and worked on my friends 86 accord when he lost his keys but the copy of ours didn't. Basically is just wear and tear. When I cut a new key shell for my 03 accord, the new cut refused to open the trunk and trunk release but after another month of wear, it eventually worked. My friends 08 accord key shell was cut over 6 months ago, till today, that key only manages to enter the door cylinder but has never worked on the trunk release. The old one does smoothly. That's why I always encourage using remote entry which will maintain the good condition of door cylinder to reject buglar keys and reduce vulnerability. 2 Likes |

PaperLace: Kinda true. Imagine you're being stalked/followed like the gif bellow, then you bolt to your car to make a get away only to start searching for the ignition key among the numerous keys, at this point one is tense to compose him or her self.

BlackJo: I disagree totally with you. All through out the ownership of Japanese cars, I discovered only your fob which is programmed to your car can open your car. It CANNOT open another car. Intact, if you have two Toyotas with fobs, press the unlock button simultaneously, NONE of the cars will respond. No beep, no chirp no door lock or unlock. Besides, your fob can only work on your car as long as its been married to your car Transceiver system. Basically, Toyota use Radio Waves which have unique sets of codes reprogrammed into the Transceiver each time you press the button of the keyfob. These codes always change at each press of the remote and hence its called rolling codes. Go read more on Toyota key fob and rolling codes. The only reason why your key fobs operates another fob is maybe the two cars use a cheap chinko aftermarket keyfob and transceiver system. Every keyfob produced by Toyota always Complies with Rule 15 of FCC laws which states that "they may not cause harmful interference, but may receive interference even if it will result to undesirable operations". 4 Likes |

adanny01: Until the battery starts messing up. Happened with my dad's 2001 Toyota Camry. I tried to unlock it sometime ago, on my way home, it didn't budge. Had to use the key... then the bloody alarm went off. I started answering questions no one asked... "it's my car, I'm not stealing it". Even the spare remote didn't work. After so many attempts, I finally got the alarm to shut up! Personally, I wouldn't recommend Remote Controls. No, thank you. 1 Like |

PaperLace: You should see my mum's car key. FC Barcelona Keyholder, attached to a Bank Keyholder, attached to the house keys, with the key to the generator house. My dad, on the other hand, only has the house key, and a bottle opener (don't ask). |

kingreign: You don't have to totally disagree or agree with me man, what I said happened actually did happen. Your keyfob theory is cool though. Sometimes my remote just blinks my indicator lights without opening the car. .... ended up using the key. Hell I didn't even know my car had an alarm system after almost a year of usage until it blared in my face when I tried to unlock the car through the rolled down window while standing outside . Been trying to repeat the same feat just to hear it blare again. ... but the car no gree o. Sometimes I just wonder what new thing I'll find out. |
