SUBJECT: XT COUPE SPEED ALARM KEY SWITCH
The key used to turn the Warning Speed Alarm on has a number stamped on it. This number allows you to make a duplicate key using a Curtis key cutter with a #19557 Cam Assembly for the proper tooth cut and a #19682 Carriage which holds the key in position on the cutter.

Should this key become lost or misplaced, the key number may be found on the cylinder of the speed alarm switch itself. In order to gain access to the key number:
1) Turn the ignition switch to its OFF position.
2) Remove the driver's side lower cover located beneath the steering column by removing its four (4) screws. (See Figure 1).
