Like this one?Anyone have a picture of one of those as discussed here?
Presumably so the valet can't disable Valet Mode which is nice. How significantly different is the key cut from the master or are they the same? Definitely want to look into finding a blank and having one cut accordingly.It does not go into valet mode when this key is inserted.
It's exactly the same as far as I can tell. Just no fob buttons. I've only used it twice. Once when I first got the car and was confused as to why a valet key would open the trunk. Then the other day when I re-tested it to make sure I hadn't mis-remembered.Presumably so the valet can't disable Valet Mode which is nice.

If it doesn't have a different cut from the valet key, does the main key use RFID or some other proximity technology to disable the car from accessing Valet Mode in the VDS?

Also, I believe there is an RFID-ish aspect to the keys, as Tesla has to go through quite a process to re-key a car. You can't just make a clone of the metal part.Valet mode is protected by a PIN (entered on the VDS to enable/disable valet mode) and not related to the key.
I didn't think the Roadster had seat occupancy sensors. The passenger airbag is always enabled; hence the note in the manual about passengers under age 12 and the effort required to install a switch to disable it.The only proximity technology that I'm aware of in the Roadster is pressure sensors in the seats to detect posteriors proximate to said seats (for air bag deployment interlock). There's no RFID tech in it that I know of.
Ha. Learned something again. Thanks for clarifying!Just to clarify the issue:
There is no real "valet" key. Just an extra key without the remote. Valet mode is handled strictly thru the VDS as previously stated.
The is no RFID chip in the key. The process Tesla goes thru is just to reprogram the remote.
Any key that is cut to work in the ignition will start the car.
The Roadster is the only car I know that can be "hot-wired" like in the movies using just a few wires-it literally takes 10 seconds. So ALWAYS set the alarm.
And for those of you who only use a 4 digit PIN to disable the alarm-you can use up to 8 digits to make it harder to guess the code.
