Hey everyone, let’s walk through cutting a Fiat SIP22 blade using the Xhorse Key Cutting Machine – the Condor Mini Plus II. This key is used in most Fiats from around 2005 onward, so it’s something you’ll see often.
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Select the Key Profile
On the CondorII, go to:
Automotive → Brand/model → Fiat → Fiat 500 → SIP22.
- Clamp the Original Key
Use the M5-B Clamp and align the key shoulder. Make sure it sits flat and secure.
- Decode the Key
Tap “Decode Key” on the screen. The machine reads the cuts-quick and accurate.
- Load the Blank
Insert your new SIP22 blankthe same way. Clamp it tight.
- Cut the Key
Hit “Start Cutting” with default settings. The machine does the rest. Brush off the swarf after-important for conductivity!
- Flip and Repeat
Turn the key over and cut the other side. Same process.
- Test the Key
Once cut and cleaned, test it in the vehicle. Works like a charm!
My Take on the Xhorse Condor II:
This machine is a game-changer. It’s fast, easy to use, and super reliable-perfect for automotive keys like the SIP22. If you’re a locksmith looking for a no-fuss, efficient cutter, I highly recommend it.
