 What you do not want to see in the washing machine - helicopter
SWMBO put my jeans through the washing machine yesterday. The machine was beeping to start the spin cycle and as she was not around I put it onto spin ,pressed start and looked down to see the transponder key for the CRV just disappearing into the 1600 rpm spin cycle..... I had forgotten to remove it from the key pocket.

15 minutes later I removed the key, opened it up, removed the battery and stuck the rest in aTupperware box of rice overnight.

Reassembled it at midday and it worked fine...but not an experience I want to repeat .I do have a spare key but getting a replacement coded is a costly business.

Anyone done the same? In my defence I am recovering from an opration to remove my gall bladder last week and am not feeling on top form.I could have done without the aggro.
