Last Saturday, I was working my 1526 Mahindra and got off of it and for the life of me, I can't find my key. I can't remember what I did with it. It's not hanging where I always put it. It's not anywhere where I normally might leave it. I've checked my pants pockets. I've checked the trash cans. I've checked everywhere. It's just like they've vanished in thin air. Is it possible to order another key from Mahindra? Right now, I'm dead in the water until I get another key.

I’m not 100% on Mahindra but a lot of tractor brands only have one key. So the chances are high the dealer will have it.
When new, they should have given you two keys. My second key didn’t have all the plastic though. Check your files.
Lastly the key doesn’t “lock” anything out. So in a pinch the ignition can be switched by doing a little home rewiring.

Dealer should have given you 2 keys. Mahindra and everyone else has several types of keys but they fit multiple models. There is a guy in Hawaii (ebay...heavyequipmentkeys) who has all you want and a much better price too. Look at the pics w/the posting and compare. He listed a key fitting 4 tractors and mine was not one of them but looked like the pic. Exact match. I bought from him 2x.

Each Mahindra series has it's own key so your 1526 has the same key as other 15 series tractors but it would be different than my 26 series key.

Maybe & maybe not. There is more than 1 style key but not many. I was also told cab & ignition keys are different. I bought ignition keys that fit a 2810, 3510, and 4110 and mine is a 2538. I took a chance by looking at the pic.

NO ! hahaha Ace is the place I went to first. Everybody now uses these computerized key makers. That blank is not in the system so he and everyone else including a locksmith set me packing. The dealer wanted $22. so that wasn't happening. I tried ebay and lucked out.

Your 2538 is different. Try Bills Tractor. About $8.

This is the key to the OPs tractor..
