Can the original car key still be used after getting a replacement if lost?

If a car key is lost and a replacement is made, the original key cannot be used. Below are precautions regarding car key usage and an introduction to obtaining a new key: Obtaining a new key: You can directly take the original remote key of the vehicle to a locksmith company for matching, or go to the after-sales service department for matching. If the key is not lost, it can be directly matched. If the key is lost, you cannot directly match a new key for the vehicle; the central locking system of the vehicle needs to be replaced. Release the key immediately after ignition: After the driver starts the car, they should immediately release the key and not keep turning it, as this can damage the engine belt. Frequently placing the smart car key together with a mobile phone will inevitably cause the smart car key to malfunction. The battery life of a smart car key is approximately one year. Depending on the frequency of use, the battery consumption will vary. Using the car key at different distances will also affect the battery drain. Be very cautious when replacing the battery of a smart car key, as any mistake can burn out the circuit board inside the key.
