    Driving this KW 2013 T660 and since I got put in it I have asked the employer and other drivers but nobody knows. I got the keys given to me and there are two keys one is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch shorter than the other one. It doesn't open the side boxes or doors or even start the truck. Not the glovebox either any ideas? Someone said there is another locked compartment but if there is one I can't find it.

    Random key the previous driver kept from a truck they had prior? Are there any numbers printed on the key (e.g., "G250", "P0500", etc.)?
    The longer key shafts are intended for the T680 and other models which use tumblers recessed into the dash and doors, although they'll work fine for models which don't have that (such as the T660), so long as they're cut correctly.
    I think it was up to 2011 that the T660 had a separate key for the sidebox, and it wasn't compatible with the key they used for the cab doors and ignition. But a 2013 should use the same key all around. Only way there'll be an extra compartment is if it's a company add-on.
    If it possible that this key was from the previous driver for something like a kingpin lock or glad hand lock?

    Possibly. No numbers on it and the cuts are nowhere close to each other.
