1 Answers
Car keys can still be used after falling into water, as modern car keys are designed with waterproof features. If handled promptly after getting wet, they can continue to function. Here is extended information about car keys falling into water: Do not activate immediately: Avoid pressing any buttons on the remote immediately to prevent short-circuiting and burning out the key's chip. Instead, disassemble the key to cut off power, dry it with a hairdryer, and then test it. Precautions for using car keys: Do not leave spare keys inside the car, avoid placing them near electronic devices, keep them away from metal objects, avoid dropping the keys, and protect them from high temperatures, moisture, and direct sunlight.
