Bypass coded key for 2012 can am 400 outlander xt. Broke the key when i rolled it. Rather not have a coded key .when it broke left me hi and dry. Old style i could have just turn with a screw driver or a couple of jumper wires not this son of a bitch help cant find any wiring diagrams that show what i need to know there got to be a way. Just never have been around that kind of ignition before.peace out power to the people united we stand tall divided we will surely will fall

 

They don't give you a spare on a new ATV like that?

 

Nope they only give you 1. If i would of been thinking at the time i would have got an extra key right then live and learn

 

When I bought my Can-Am that was one of the first things the dealership had to include as part of the deal. A spare key. One guy in our group left his in the ignition and it fell out somewhere between home and where we were riding which was about a 2 hour trip. Can-Am keys cost $60+ to get a copy made. Not sure how to bypass the security system.

 

On a 2012 I would price a new key. You do not want to go in slicing wires and get it wrong.

 

I want to do what ever is necessary to fix my condition. And still remain the integrity of the quad's performance. But i am up for any advise or direction site's etc.

 

A coded key sounds great until you're the one who can't start it. Just go to the dealer and buy another one. Probably have to bring some proof that its your atv if they don't recognize you, might have to do it even if they do. Dealers are going to be very suspicious of anyone wanting a replacement key.

 

If I remember correctly, you have to bring the quad in so they can code the key to the quad.

 

That makes sense too.
