You can't. It's a BROKEN key. All you can do is put the same addons on it.

Broken key does not open the hatch, that's the point, it's broken.

OK, Thanks for the answer.

It can reveal the killers aura if you put the add on it

Yes but with different functions than the map

if you use 1 add on it can be used to reveal survivor auras (find your team mates)

if you use another add on it can show the killer aura

Here's how the different Keys work (They all count as types of Skeleton Keys btw):

- Broken Key: 10 seconds of use, no special abilities
- Dull Key: 5 seconds of use, can be consumed to open the Hatch
- Skeleton Key: 30 seconds of use, can be consumed to open the Hatch

Add-ons can be added to any of the three Keys.

Skeleton & Dull Key without add-ons can open the Hatch
The Broken Key can't do anything without add-ons

[Relssum]

The skeleton key was always so rare that by the time you acquired one, you had Milky Glass and Weaved Ring. Consequently, the other addons were getting ignored. With the addition of the dull key and broken key though, a player can use the lesser addons on the broken key and experiment more with a skeleton key.

Broken key is the best way to make a killer waste a perk slot. Bring a broken key and watch in glee as the killer puts on Franklin's.

[Mad Doctor's Cat]

The Broken Key has one use and only one use in DbD: punishing survivors who use the perk "Plunderer's Instinct". And boy, does it ever. I remember one particularly spicy match in which I got to three chests first, hoping to find a really nice medkit or toolbox, and every single one of them contained a Broken Key. Wow, thanks!
