Lost Key YM2220

[Tom_Veatch]

Searched previous posts for any discussion of lost/replacement tractor keys and found one thread that recommended getting a JD 850 key to replace a YM1700 key. I've got the same problem with a YM2220. Will the same approach work here? If so, what JD model is appropriate?

TIA to any kind folk who have an answer.

Here's an eBay listing for a Yanmar key. I bought one and it fit my F15D. He claims it fits many other models...possibly it will fit yours, too. He seems to list a new key every 4-5 days.

I just replaced my ignition switch/lock and got a new set of keys with it, so have a couple of extra used spares. If you would like to send your mailing adddress by private message, I would be happy to mail you one.

Tom, go to your local JD dealer and get part # CH12206. There will be 2 keys in the package. Cost about $ 5.00, don't let the word ( Yanmar ) come out of your mouth while you are in the JD dealership. These keys will not fit some of the YM1700's.

Don't know about a FM3110, but a YM3110 is the same.

Many, many thanks, Norm. The key arrived today and is a perfect fit.

A big thank you to all who came to my rescue on the lost key fiasco. Of course you know what happened. It always does in this kind of case. After I got a replacement key (from Norm - thanks again, Norm), and after the tractor set out through a wild night of rain, wind, thunderstorms, and tornados (none hit us, but they were all around the area), as I was walking out to check the replacement key, a flash of light in the grass caught my eye. Need I say more.

Now, at least, I have a spare.

Thanks again, everybody! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

You're welcome, Tom. I got a spare key from Tractor Ernie a while back, thought I would just pass one along.
