DESS Key Failure

[billybovine]

Got my chip today; now all I need is a break-in service to be reached! :thumbup:
(It'll gvie me the opportunity to throw everything at the dealer, with instructions to, "Make some Magic Happen!"

)

So Bob you are building a key by using a Crypto TP12 chip. If I understand correctly this is not a clone but a BRP like key. Why did you not just buy a BRP key?
Now if you are correct and the 2014 BRP key uses the TP 12 chip then a clone can be made using a TPX3/4 chip.

I'll be sure to let you know if this idea crashes and burns or not!

Dealers want $47 for a key for the 14's. :yikes: Tom :trike:

 

[Bob Denman]

I've got about $17 bucks invested in mine so far...

If it works! :yikes:

UPDATE: I got this new chipped keyblank cut for the RT today... the lady in the hardware store cut it for free! :thumbup:
Normally; you can start the bike with an unchipped key, if you hold the smart key up against the switch...
I tried it with the unprogrammed new key... and got The Orange Screen of Death to scream "Key Error" at me... :yikes:
Could it be that it was ignoring the real key, and just seeing that an umprogrammed dummy was in the switch?
I was hoping that the real key would trigger the "all systems go"! command; it didn't... :shocked:

It's like two people talking to you at the same time. You can't understand either one.

Hmmm Bob does your other half know you are wasting money on useless items? :shocked::roflblack:

:yikes: In my defense; it's NOT chrome! :2thumbs:

So a key without a chip will act differently, than one with an unprogrammed chip? :dontknow:

Maybe I am confusing things here. Correct me if I am wrong.

I thought that your new key has a TP12 chip. If so it is already setup to send a code every time it gets a magnetic pulse from the antenna in the ignition switch. So is your existing BRP key. So 2 keys sending their codes at the same time. That's a problem. I least that's how I understand it.

 

[Bob Denman]

It has the chip, but is awaiting programming.
I believe that your statement explains what I experienced; thanks! :thumbup:

So now you have to get your dealer to program your Spyder to accept the codes the new key is sending out.

Got the "EBay key from China today... There's not really much that's useful on the package...
I've decided to keep this key as a "dummy" for opening locked compartments...
The Aprilia one that came from Hawaii; will get a pass by BUDS, and see if some Magic happens! :thumbup:
