Spare key???

[Jackhartjr]

Before anyone says search for it, I have, the answers are not clear.
I have purchased a 2013 RT Limited.
I only have one key.
How do I get a spare made that will also start it please?

I believe you hafta get it from a dealer. It hasta be programmed to your Spyder.

Buy the key from your dealer, take it to the hardware store and have it cut like your existing key, then take it back to the dealer to have it programmed to your bike..... Jim

Afterthought..... Make sure when you take the key to the dealer for programming that you take the bike too. They need both after the key is cut for the lock. When I got my second key, I just rode the bike while going between the dealer and the hardware store..... Jim

I was actually able to buy the key, have it cut, and have it programmed for my 2012 RSS all at the can am dealership. No problems. But, before you leave, check both the existing key and the new key to make sure they both work. When I had my new key programmed, it terminated the programming for the original key. I had to go back and have them do them both again.

Out of curiosity, how much will the dealer normally charge to program the key once cut?

I bought my key blank from the dealer, had it cut, then back to dealer for programming. The dealer did not charge me any extra for programming. Guess they were happy to pretty much empty my wallet at the cost of the key blank..... Jim
