I needed a forklift part and wasn’t sure which one fit. They asked for the model and serial number, got back to me quickly, and made sure I ordered the right one. Really helpful.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this ignition lock cylinder work if my key has an immobilizer chip? A: The mechanical cylinder is a direct replacement; the remote key shell is an empty housing. You must transfer the electronic module from your original key to the new shell for the immobilizer to function.
Q: Does the key blade need to be cut? A: Yes, the included key shell comes with an uncut metal blade that must be cut by a locksmith or dealer to match your ignition pattern.
