BMW was founded in 1916 and has a history of more than 90 years. Introduction to BMW: BMW is the abbreviation of Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, founded in Munich, Germany in 1916, appearing younger compared to Fiat, Ford, Renault, and Rolls-Royce. However, in the 1930s, it produced the world's best sports cars and luxury sedans, recovering from the destruction of World War II and the financial recession of the 1950s. BMW's Development History: In 1922, BMW developed its first motorcycle engine. Although it was not adopted, it set an important direction for the company. Later, at the Victoria-Werke factory in Nuremberg, they produced a 500ml air-cooled horizontally opposed twin-cylinder motorcycle engine designed by Max Friz, which was installed on the revolutionary R-32 motorcycle. Its power was transmitted to the rear wheel via a driveshaft instead of a chain. The R-32 set the template for the classic BMW motorcycles. In 1924, BMW launched the R-32 into the market, and it quickly achieved success.

Why can't the car key open the door?

The reasons why the car key cannot open the door are: 1. The remote key is out of battery; 2. The car battery is out of power, or there is strong signal interference around; 3. You can use the hidden mechanical key inside the remote key to open the door. If the mechanical key also cannot open the door, it is a door lock malfunction. If the car battery is out of power, the car's sensing system will naturally fail, resulting in malfunction. In this case, the car needs to be recharged. A common issue is the car key battery running out of power, leading to malfunction. Generally, the battery life of a car sensing key is about 2 years. If the battery is dead, the door cannot be opened via sensing. For cars with a one-button start, if the key battery is dead, you can only use the spare key inside the sensing key to open the door.
