How to make a duplicate, copy of a Lada Vesta, XRAY key


In modern cars, the ignition key also has buttons. It has its own battery and needs to be changed. One of the Lada Vesta devices is a three-button engine ignition control panel with a flip key. On the Lada Vesta, the key controls the central locking, as well as the locking device of the luggage compartment. Since it is a flip key, it means it needs a special case, read our article in detail about this device!

How to open a Lada Vesta with just a key

Lada door locks are locked using a central lock. If the main Vesta remote control is lost or discharged, it will not be possible to simply open the car. Surely, you have already noticed that the door handles do not have external locks. Therefore, to open a car door using a simple opener, you must first find where to insert it. The lock cylinder is located in the same place, in the handle, only it is covered with a plastic cap in the color of the body.

If the main ignition key of the Lada Vesta is not functioning, look for the lock plug on the driver's door handle on the right. Visually, it seems to be separated from the entire handle. Find the technological hole at the bottom, insert a screwdriver or any available object into it (however, if opening the machine is not so urgent, we recommend that you use special plastic spatulas so as not to scratch the paintwork of the handle or door). Remove the plug using a "pull" motion. Now you can use the spare blade to open the lock mechanism. The above method is used with a working battery.

In case the battery is discharged, there are two options. The first is to charge the battery. The second is to use the key to open any door except the driver’s door.

Reviews

Positive
1.Nikolai Asmanovich , 42 years old (drive2.ru): two years have passed since the purchase of the car, there are no comments on quality or functionality. I was surprised when I found out where the core of the keyhole is located.
2.Vitaly Gennadievich , 46 years old (prom.ua): during three years of active operation of the technical device, he replaced the batteries in the standard key fob once. Never used the spare one.
3.Vasily , 29 years old (autotoday.com): last winter I used the spare key once. The batteries on the key fob are low. I replaced them with new ones myself, I didn’t contact the service department, although the car was under warranty service.
4.Sergey Vasilyevich , 41 years old (rozetka.ua): I didn’t know about the purpose of the tag on the spare key, I already wanted to rip it off, but my comrades held an educational program on the topic: how to open the door with a Lada Vesta key.
5.Svyatoslav Kirillovich , 39 years old, (avtoflit.com): in the third year of operation of the technical device, I learned how to use a spare one. I was a little surprised by some things.
6.Gennady Arkadyevich , 40 years old, (autotoday.com): two years have passed since the purchase of the car, the key fob is functioning properly, there are no complaints.
7.Vasily , 33 years old, (drive2.ru): the key fob has already driven 75,000 km and works without any problems, the original batteries are installed.
Negative
8.Stanislav Nikolaevich , 39 years old (prom.ua): the fact that a spare key is included in the kit is good, but it does not solve the problem with an open trunk. The workshop said that the manufacturer plans to eliminate the defect by changing the program code in the firmware of the on-board computer.
9.Petr Nikiforovich , 43 years old, (avtoflit.com): he fixed the problem of an unlocked trunk on his own, contacted a service station, and bought an additional mechanical drive. Now the trunk lid is locked independently of the car interior.
10.Kirill , 32 years old, (drive2.ru): I installed a sound siren on the lid drive, I think it will scare away an ill-wisher if he opens the lid. Not the most effective way, but the least expensive.
11.Stepan Timofeevich , 50 years old, (autotoday.com): bought the car second-hand, the previous owner independently installed the drive on the trunk lid. It's not practical to carry an extra keychain, but it's reliable.

How to lock a Lada Vesta with a key

You can't just lock a car with central locking using a key. The lock cylinder is located only on the driver's side, the remaining openings are closed centrally. You should be able to perform a simple manipulation, which we will describe below:

Open the driver's door; Find on the center console in the cabin a button with a picture of a door and a key (above the interior temperature controls); Press this key for five seconds (a single press will lock the doors for a short period of time due to the fact that the driver's door is open); Make sure that all doors are locked; Leave the car, close the driver's door mechanically. Where can I get a spare key?

This is where the spare tip tag comes in handy. It is by the number engraved on this sticker that your dealership selects the appropriate opening element. Not only will the tip be made, but the remote control itself will be coded according to your system. For Lada Vesta you can choose several different ignition control panels. Therefore, you can order yourself a new DPU without losing your regular one.

Please note that Lada vesta opening devices may be different. Depending on the vehicle’s configuration, you can see forms ranging from a regular mechanical key to a folding key with DPU. The variety of types suggests the ability to make spare keys yourself or contact any key master. In order to make a new kit, you need:

Purchase a blank for a specific Lada vesta model (otherwise the size will not fit); Copy the tip pattern (by removing it from the body or removing it from the mount); Program the chip to synchronize with your alarm system.

Exercises for men

There are hundreds of ways for men to pump up their pectoral muscles at home. The most effective are exercises with a barbell, as well as special exercise machines.

If you don’t have a simulator, you can improvise - use pull-ups or something similar. We attach the spring element to the wall, stand with our back to it and pull the elastic bands towards ourselves, without bending our arms.

If you press straight, the external intercostal and serratus anterior muscles are built up. If you move your arms to the sides - deltoid, pectoralis minor and pectoralis major muscles. This is considered to be one of the most effective exercises to quickly build up your chest muscles. Calculate the number of approaches and movements based on your own capabilities. At the initial stage - at least three approaches of 20 times.

Exercises with a barbell should be performed very carefully, especially if there are injuries, back diseases or any diseases of the internal organs. It is optimal to perform the bench press starting with a light weight. If you don’t have a barbell, you can practice with dumbbells according to the women’s course. Starting weight from three kilograms, three approaches for each movement 20 times.

All these recommendations on how to pump up your pectoral muscles at home are a starting point. You can easily supplement the course with suitable exercises yourself. The main thing is not to forget that the body easily and happily transfers the load from the chest to the spine and that excesses and experiments can only begin after two weeks of training.

How to disassemble the Lada Vesta key - to replace the battery

The door control system requires energy to transmit a signal. The locking mechanism only needs a small amount of power, so the available charge of the included battery lasts for a long time. However, its resource is not eternal. When it is completely exhausted, an unpleasant situation may arise - you will not be able to open the car. It's better to avoid this.

A slow response to the command, in comparison with the normal operation of the unlocking remote device, indicates that the battery is about to discharge. Replacing the battery in the 2180 key fob occurs according to the following scenario:

  • Using the button, pull out the blade (if it is inside the case during disassembly, there is a high risk of damaging the board);
  • On the right side at the bottom of the plastic housing of the remote control, find a technological hole, insert a flat-head screwdriver (or other similar object) into it;
  • Fix the remote control with your hand, move the screwdriver down;
  • After the body begins to separate into two parts along the seam, carefully open the control panel;
  • Using tweezers (screwdrivers), hook the CR2032 battery;
  • Replace the dead battery;
  • Assemble the body - carefully snap it along the seam, starting from the side of the discarded tip.

Where to get a spare key

Based on this, it is possible to do it yourself.

  • There are blanks available on the market. You need to know the car model, otherwise the board will not fit in size;
  • The second stage will be copying the tip. If excluding the fasteners from the body is not enough, the product itself is disassembled, and then the blade of the Lada Vesta ignition key is sharpened;
  • Finally, to complete the work, the chip in contact with the alarm should be programmed. Craftsmen who know how to operate a soldering iron have no problem performing such an operation.

In some configurations of Lada XRAY, Vesta, Largus, Granta, Kalina or Priora cars, an ignition key with a built-in remote control (factory alarm) can be used, which controls the central locking. If it stops working, first try changing the battery.

If the issue of opening doors is quite easy to deal with, then the question of how to lock a car with a spare key may confuse some owners. The fact is that only the driver's door has a key; all other doors are locked with the central lock, but this case also has a solution.

While in the car, open the driver's door, then hold down the central locking button shown in photo “3”

Pay attention to the word “Press”, because if you simply press the button once, the central locking will close and immediately open, since the driver’s door is open

In general, after pressing the button, it will behave the same way, but if you keep the button pressed further, the central lock will lock the doors again and will not open them. After the operations have been completed, you can safely leave the car and close the driver’s door mechanically as shown in photo “4”.

But this case is not the worst, because as you already understood, with the help of a central lock, you can quite simply lock the car, but what to do if you need to close a vehicle with a dead battery? In this situation, the central locking is no longer our help, because it simply will not respond to the press of a button.

In order to close the car, you will have to resort to a little trick: open any passenger door and look at the locking mechanism, you will see a small cavity, which is indicated in photo “5” with a red arrow. If you insert any flat object into this cavity, such as a key or a screwdriver, and press this object down, as shown in photo “6”, the door will lock, after which all that remains is to slam this door and repeat these steps with the remaining passenger doors, and the driver’s The door can be closed the old fashioned way through the key holder.

Cases


The plastic body of the control panel is fragile, like other switchblade bollards. If dropped from human height, the ignition control panel may break. A special case for the Lada Vesta key can save the remote control from scratches and damage.

The case for the remote control is a silicone shell of different colors (green, red, orange, yellow, blue, transparent, black). The rubber of the cover is soft; upon impact, it absorbs the kinetic energy of contact. At the same time, the presence of the shell does not affect keypresses in any way.

There are many manufacturers and stores where you can buy such a case. You need to look for a department with car accessories or place an online order. The price is small - from 100 to 300 rubles.

A modern ignition control panel is a convenient device that gives respectability to the owner. If you treat it with care - protect the case from damage, replace batteries on time, do not ignore existing problems - it will serve you for a long time and reliably.
