1401D Keys

[jimstractors]

I would like to make up a bunch of 1401d keys, but cannot find a third party key mfg and part # for the blanks. The original Yanmar keys have part # 123243, but these are no longer available. If anyone has had some made by a locksmith, please share the key mfg and their part number with us.
Thanks,
Jim

Ernie has keys but there are 3 different key styles in the 1401

I bought spare double sided keys for a 1401D from the JD dealer already cut.

I bought my spare key from Hoye tractor www.hoyetractor.com, I think it was 10$

They are precut and ready to go.

I bought a key for an F15D from the local John Deere dealer. It used the same key as the YM1500D, YM1301D, and YM1110D. I don't remember the JD part number, but I just took one in to the dealer and they matched it up for me.

I believe it was Hoye Tractor that told me the keys they had may or may not fit the 1401--if I'm wrong,please let me know.
Maybe I'll try the JD folks in town....thanks, Gbrirky and F15downer!

I talked to Aaron at Hoye tractor a couple of months ago. He didn't have the single cut 1401 keys. Also, Anna at Southern Global doesn't have them either. Dave at Dave's Tractors in Red Bluff, CA told me he had a local locksmith that had the blanks, but didn't know the part number. His keys might be double cut and not single cut. Of the 15 or so 1401d's I've sold, all have the single cut key. The 1510d's, 1601d's, and 1702d's I've sold all use the double cut key.

Wind chimes? Great to see a good sense of humor in action.

Ilco TA6 is the blank my locksmith used to make us 1401 keys. Single cut and it works fine.

It seems that there are 3 keys that cover most all of the Yanmar tractors. The 1401 key, the double cut key that fits the 2010 and so on and most all other 3-cylinder Yanmars and the 3-digit F-series key, that also fits Bransons...just in case someone wants to take a test drive.

I am sure there are others as well.

here's a dumb question: I'm assuming single-cut means the key can only be inserted one way into the ignition switch? If so, then mine is double-cut.
Tractorernie, if you have double-cuts to fit a 1401, please let me know.... wyattt@gborocollege.edu
thanks!!!

I think I can be pursuaded to clean out my key sweepers
and send one for free to a yanmar lover in need.
6 years ago I lost my key in the field, while walking back to the shop i found this lamp on a cow pie , well i rubbed it clean & out came this key genie. ......
well you now the rest of the story,
Any how it has been raining yanmar keys for 6 years
So I bought 2 key sweepers to clean them up, and I sell them for scrap metal, and wind chimes
Well I gotta put my bull boots (ahem) I mean my hip boots back on ,its getting deep in here.
Email me for an address ernie@molalla.net <><

JD part # CH12206 fits a JD 850....... AND a YM1700 /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

 

[rbeitz]

Will it also fit a YM1500D? I only have one key and I'd like to get a spare to keep around.

 

[Inspector507]

I have no idea........maybe someone more familiar with multiple models would know.

 

[EFC]

There are three different keys that come in the 1500

 

[rbeitz]

My key says yanmar on it and the number "715" if that means anything to anyone....

 

[jimstractors]

I ordered a box of 50 blanks. These are supposed to be the same as the single cut key (with part# 123243 stamped on it) that all my 1401d's have. These are from a third party mfg., so I hope they work. I will keep you posted.
