If all the buttons work no real risk breaking the good one confirm all the buttons function before starting.
Thanks for reply, right so try the steps first on the working key followed by the non working one?, as some vids i see people start with the non working one....

I have driven the car with the non working (much newer condition key as was kept indoors as spare) but only for a few hours, read on some forum that it takes much longer to recharge if dead, like 30hours?

checking video the caption about make sure all doors are shut is clear then it says first lock all doors with central locking button(not too clear so lock door whist in car with central locking button in console?) if so this is not included on other vids, others vids just say unlock car, close doors and do steps
