where the fuck is willis, mi? I have 11tybillion keys for every tractor, or peice of heavy machinery imaginable from when I used to work at a farm equipment dealer in the service department.

 

why do that just go get another key at the local lowes or home depot . there is nothing special about the key LOL

 

willis is south of ypsilanti, mi

 

I don't know about John Deere, but every rider I have had took the same key. I believe they say indak on them, and you can get them at meijer I think.

 

The switch has INDAK stamped on it. I'll try Lowes, HOME DEPOT AND Meijers. My frist thought was to pull the switch and run to Tractor Supply but the damn swith has 2 red and 2 white wires connected to a small circuit board.

 

Try The Home Depot on Mich Ave and Canton Center I think they sell JD mowers. If that doesnt work try Coldwell equipment on Belleville south of Mi ave about 1/2 mile east side of the rd, I think it was bought out by Wolverine equipment.

 

If it says indak you can get the key at Weingartz.........or Ive got a few.

They are a common key.

 

The thing that sucks about JD is there are only a few dealers around any more. YA you can buy that cheap stuff at Lowes or home depot. But if you have a real JD you'll pay hell getting parts. I have to drive 40mins to the nearest dealer but they close at 2 on sat and closed on sunday. And they are only open till 5 rest of the week. So if something happens on sat afternoon i am shit out of luck till next sat.

 

they are the same key across brands. you will find you can even start it with a flat-head screwdriver. The keys really are not keys at all.

 

I would check your kids diaper. Should show up no later than tomorrow.

 

I bet you lost it not your kid, always gotta blame it on the kid.

 

You know if I blame the boy the wife thinks its funny. If I lost it, the wife thinks i am idoit

 

I start my John deere with my airens snowblower key, it is just a standard indak key.

 

An Indak key is an Indak key. Nothing special because its on a JD. They use that key on most every piece of outdoor power equipment. This is a lawn tractor right? When you get into the bigger tractors they use "keyed" ignitions.

The indak is a standard key.........only one "key code". As stated before, you can start it with a small screwdriver. There arent any pins inside the cylinder.

 

Now that I googled this.........there are two types of Indak keys that could be in a John Deere.

But again........both of these keys can easily be bypassed with a small screwdriver. The key isnt there for theft protection, rather as a saftey feature.

 

My switch looks like it takes a reg style key. I tried a small screw driver and it will not go down into the switch- looks like the key needs 2 groves in it one on either side. I ran to lowes they had a JD key but it is for those cheapies that they sell. They have a completly differnt switch.

 

Winegarts eqipment / Badder Brothers / Local JD dealer. /Most have a indian key One size fits all. Take your neibors its Prob yours in the first place.

 

John Deer

Any key that fits will work!! I lost mine and searched every where then someone told me any key will work and it does. Wouldn't you know it I found the key right after cutting the grass.

 

there's like 3 keys JD lawnmowers use, just go buy another one
