Hello,

Currently I have the red master key and 1 normal everyday Black key for my xtr. I would like to get another black key to have as a spare. Can i simply buy a blank one off ebay and take it down to timpsons along with my existing black key to get it duplicated? Or is it not as easy as that? Would i have to get it programmed or anything like that?

Cheers

Yes you would need the key programmed.... but if you ask me how I'd have to go away and read the manual !

You do need the red key to program a new black one, you probably know that already though.

You could start by getting the blank cut to shape, then worry about getting it programmed ??


<edit> It's a 6 step process, not too difficult, but I can't cut'n past from the manual, so I've attached it here

Thanks!

Hmmmm ok, nothing is ever quite as easy as it seems! There is a dealer at the end of the road who might be able to help out with programming.
They are only a couple of quid so no huge loss if it goes a bit pete tong!

I think that you need to go to an official Yamaha dealer to have the new black key activated, phone and ask them.......
