Lucky day for me, wife soak my jeans togther with keypouch in washing machine overnight... only realise in the morning.. thought gone liao.. key pouch still in jean on hanger... immediately take, go & try on my car,, lucky latio can still detect key... else donate $$$ to TCM  .. wonder what's the damage for changing at TCM??

Bro, dont be too happy first.  For every electronic components that make contact with water, it is better to open up the cover and ensure it dry first before using it.

But still you have just speed up the internal erosion that shorten the lifespan of your key. 
Theory is same to a mobile phone.

Hi guys, pardon me, off track a bit, where can i find a key pouch suitable for our i-key? Been looking for one but can't find, most are either too bog or small.

Thanks.

Yes, the ikey casing is very well designed. I had mine in the wash and only fished it out after the spin dry cycle.

It worked.

Being curious, I opened it up to check. Completely dry inside.

Brilliant.

Yes they do give away free key pouch when you collect your car. They will either attach the key pouch to your iKey or your spare key. For my case, I asked for an extra key pouch so that I can have one for my iKey and one for my spare key.... :yehyeh: :yehyeh: :yehyeh:

If u r lazy to go down to take, u can actually call up ur SE and ask him/her to send it to u by mail, dats wat i did when i requested for extra key pouch when i duplicate an extra I-key as a spare.

that time i went to TP TCM for servicing and ask them for the key pouch. They ask me to check and get from my SE. End up i went to get a leather key pouch myself during Robinson sales.
