Video page overhaul nearly complete

Video page overhaul

We just completed a major video pages overhaul that results in the removal of one page and an attempt at a table of contents (TOC) that made a mess of the whole remaining page.

We did find a TOC generator plug-in that we will attempt to use on another day.

The move is the first step intended at simplifying the site. With so many videos from so many manufacturers and over 1,000 symbols and indicators, the site has become quite unwieldy and likely difficult to navigate for the average user. We hope over time to make the site far more user friendly.

The video page consists of links to some 200+ videos intended to help drivers overcome issues created by dead key fob batteries, including getting into and starting the car and replacing the battery in the fob.

Smart Keys or Intelligent Keys, or Access Keys – or whatever the manufacturer of your chooses to call them – that let you into your car and start it with just a touch use up their internal batteries at alarming rates, catching busy drivers unawares – even though the car had tried to warn you.

Our goal is to help you feel safe – and keep you moving or get you moving if at all possible – rather than leave you fretting whenever your key fob stops working. The instructions for getting into and starting most keyless start cars can be found on our pages – without roadside assistance.

You can see the overhauled video page here. Watch for a TOC in the near future!

Remember that only proper service and repair procedures will ensure the safe and reliable operation of your car. In addition, proper safety procedures and precautions, such as the use of safety goggles, the right tools and the equipment should be followed at all times to eliminate the possibility of personal injury or improper service which could damage the vehicle or compromise its safety.

These posts are for information sharing purposes only, and should not be used in lieu of an OEM service manual or factory authorized service procedure. We are not in the auto repair business nor do we publish automotive service manuals. Nothing we include on these pages and posts has been reviewed, approved or authorized by any vehicle manufacturer.

Technology is always changing and what is current and accurate today may be literally out-of-date and inaccurate tomorrow. And when it comes to the current state of flux in the auto industry, nothing is more true.
