Forget the heat.

Get access to a sturdy Vice with nice flat jaws .. Get a few sheets of paper/thin metal sheets to adjust where and how much you need to clamp and use your common sense.

This is a 10 minute job, tops.

Basic science, metal is a good conductor (of heat) and the amount of heat required to make the metal portion soft is more than sufficient to melt the plastic portion.

Re: Bent key - Now what?

I see that there are two types of transponder chips for toyota

1. 4D67 chip
2. G Chip

Is there any difference between these two. Are they interchangeable?

I mean can I program a new 4d67 chip and use it in place of existing g chip ?

Experts suggestions here will be of great help

Thanks for the reply. This is for fortuner.

The Key has G printed on it(junction point of plastic and metal)

Without noticing I have ordered 4d67 chip at aliexpress.com.

So now I need to cancel and reorder g chip. 😕
