Xhorse Condor II Cut a Fiat SIP22 Key Blade

 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:

1. Select the Key Profile
   On the CondorII, go to:
   Automotive → Brand/model → Fiat → Fiat 500 → SIP22.

2. Clamp the Original Key
   Use the M5-B Clamp and align the key shoulder. Make sure it sits flat and secure.

3. Decode the Key
   Tap “Decode Key” on the screen. The machine reads the cuts-quick and accurate.

4. Load the Blank
   Insert your new SIP22 blankthe same way. Clamp it tight.

 

5. Cut the Key
   Hit “Start Cutting” with default settings. The machine does the rest. Brush off the swarf after-important for conductivity!

 

6. Flip and Repeat
   Turn the key over and cut the other side. Same process.

 

7. 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.
