    Default Kubota RED keys

    just been offered the job of cloning loads of RED keys for a national plant hire company. Apparently they get a Kubota tech to fly up from London to do them all red keys losts on these plant. £1000 a pop.


    I suggested cloning the red keys before they go missing. the black key here is 4D so assuming red keys will be too.


    Anyone seen transponder case blanks for this type key?
    anyone had success in cloning red keys?
    Pic of same type black key attached:

    I had a plant hire company approach me in London for 15 spares buty they didnt get back to me .
    But my investgations lead me to belive you can Add Keys with the red master like other systems and the Blanks were an easy cross reference from another manufacturer .
    Bit Vauge but hope it helps a little .

    from what i remember the red keys are not used for anything but programming more keys

    i dont think they even start the damn things

    it is a literal programming key

    then the user keys are added with the red key

    if all lost ive seen the starter replaced matched with a set of keys\
    The thanks button is HERE looks like this --->>> THANKS

    This sistem can be bypassed
    There is a video in your tube it takes less
    Than 5 minutes doing so
    Is ridiculous the price
    The charge for red key and programming 1000 pounds
    Two black keys this is not security
    Is a good way to make money for kubota plus there are problems as sometimes the red key will not be recognised and won't be able to reprogram black keys.

    Your absolutely right, easy add black keys with red key. All machines keys are same, generic part. Lost all black and red keys is a nightmare.

    your also right, red keys don’t start them just a programmed black key. Not on excivators. Coded solenoids on fuel pump and hydraulics. Not easy to bypass.

    Not a a five minute job...
    cant be bypassed by some guy off YouTube ?! Immobiliser cuts off fuel pump and hydraulics. Don’t post unless you know what your talking about.


    UPDATE to original post. There’s no way to get blanks for these, so found another original solution: got some other Kubota black key and drilled the rivets out to remove the transponder. (2 half’s of key case are held together with that rivet) installed a 4D carbon cloning chip and cloning did the job by looks of it. Will see when the plant guys will test them out. Waiting to see if code rolls on red keys after use. I’ll report what I find.
