Scoobyvelvia Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Hi, I have an existing Isuzu key for my ignition, but need to make a copy so that other family members have keys. Does anyone know of a key cutter than could do this in the Northampton area? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As John says they are all the same as the one's for JCB's. I got my spare this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyvelvia Posted October 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Thanks for the quick replies. I am amazed. Having done a quick Google search, you are correct. It seems my boat can be started by any old JCB/Izusu key. Mad...!! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the ultimate solution but that is why you often see boats (including ours) with a pad-lockable flap to cover the panel. Relatively easy to overcome but one more step to get past.

tosher Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Slightly off topic but is it ok to squirt a few drops of WD40 down the barrel of the ignition switch to lubricate the contacts??? (Isuzu engine panel). Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Isuzu engine panel). Thanks. WD40 into the key aperture will not reach the contacts which would be far happier without it anyway. A quick squirt will however lubricate the locking barrel and can only do good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob18 Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 This sounds like the modern equivalent of the old FS1 key that fitted just about everything that came out of Dagenham or Cowley for many years. And most agricultural vehicles for many years after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
