Hi there and TIA for the consideration! I have a 2011 Volkswagen Routan that wouldn't unlock this morning with the key fob. Thinking that it might just be a low battery on it, I went ahead and unlocked it using the manual key and attempted to start the vehicle. It was at this point, I knew I'd messed up lol. Of course, it won't start, nor release the key. I've scoured different troubleshooting sites for a solve, and tried a handful of things, and nothing has worked yet. My next step is to try to get the fob opened up enough to squeeze the old battery out, and the new one in, but with it being lodged in, there wouldn't be a lot of space. So! Feel free to leave any tips, resources, roasts down below, it's all appreciated.
