I have had the same key switch issues. Dealer changed it out a few months ago and problem resumed after a couple of weeks. Is the parts list that was provided still valid or are there new part numbers? I read on another board that there was a new key switch part #5011011 to replace #5010164. I have a 2018 G2 300 with the vertical key switch panel and kill lanyard separate from the key switch. I want to make sure i get the most updated key switch from the dealer this time. THX.

Code 180 means something is restricting the throttle plate movement or something is causing a stiffness in the operation. That means you should contact your dealer if all 3 caps are in position
