    Default Interesting..!!

    gotta ask..is it the spyder key..?? Roger is right, tapping it and lubing it should help. There is an issue with the ignition switches on the 14's some need replacing. Hope the jiggle and oiling helps...

    Default

    BRP would not ship my RT from the factory until they checked and/or replaced (if needed) the ignition keys because there were several reports of the keys sticking. I don't think there was a recall, per se, but an "update" notice sent to all dealers about the key problem.

    Hope you don't have to wait long to get it fixed and back on the road.

    Here is the thread that discussed the sticking keys:

    Default key is out

    Thanks to my Son he got the key out after playing with it for 10 minutes of the ignition and I sprayed or flooded it with Houdini 4 way lock lubricant. Now it goes in and out like a hot knife in butter.
