This guide explains how to safely disassemble the BMW BCP key inner shell using the Yanhua Btool BCP Key Cutting Kit.

2. Align the LOGO button of the key with the inner column of the key clip.

4. Align the limiting hole with the limiting pin.
5. Close the clip and secure the key tightly.

Step 2. Cut the Back Side of the Key Shell
1. Start cutting from the far right side of the key shell.
2. Align the left edge of the blade with the right edge of the slot.
3. Insert the blade into the gap.
4. Gently strike the blade with a hammer.
5. Stop when the blade reaches the locking notch.

Next:
6. Place the blade into the blade clamp.
7. Tilt the blade at approximately 20° and align it with the weld seam.
8. Strike the upper-right part of the blade to cut along the weld seam.
When the cut reaches the fixture groove, switch to a scalpel to continue.

Scalpel operation:
  • Keep the blade facing right.
  • Insert the tip vertically into the groove.
  • Move the scalpel horizontally so the back of the blade presses against the left bevel.
  • Tap the scalpel gently with the hammer until the blade reaches the bottom of the shell.

3. Strike the blade gently to cut the weld seam.
4. When reaching Area 3, remove the blade.
5. Reinsert the blade at an angle aligned with the weld seam.
6. Continue striking the blade to complete the cut.
