Trying to program a spare key - where's the key code on my TVS Scooty?

Hello! We've developed a VIN-based tool to help you get your key code for the TVS Scooty. Check it out here: VIN Key Code Generator.

I’ll try this and update how it goes with my TVS Scooty.

Trying this on my TVS Scooty later. Will report back.

Will this work for older TVS Scootys? Mine's a 2009.
