You my friend are a LEGEND 👍. Both of my fob keys died on me in as little as 3-4 months 😤 but I can happily say that your tutorial is absolutely SPOT ON! Thx 🙏
Works perfectly 👍🏻 thanks. Couldn't get it to work to start with. But just needed to go between positions 1 and 2 a bit faster. Then it worked without any problem.
Great, it feels a bit of an odd thing to do, but that what they decided to do and once you hear the ping you know you have done it right. Easy really as long as you know :-)
Worked like a charm. I thought some module was broken as both remote keys stopped working. Seems i only needed to pair it again. Big thank you for this.
Tried programming keys some time ago ,no joy. tried again today worked no bother. brilliant, local garage thought it would need sorting via. main dealer. I think first time did not turn key fast enough.Your instructions must have saved me a fortune, being Scottish born and brought up in Yorkshire, that`s important Thanks again.
Very help tutorial. However, I was wondering which key is in the ignition. The original or a new blank? I bought a new blank from eBay and want to try this. Thanks again
Good question, The original key has a transponder in the top key part to work. What I am programming in the video is the bottom part of the key, if you want a whole new key to work it needs the transponder chip programming to the same as your original one. This can best be done at a local locksmiths that code transponder keys.
I put the new 'buttons' end onto the old 'key' front end - just split both keys in half like you do when changing the battery (no need to expose the circuit board - just separate the two halves and swap them), swap new 'buttons' half for the old 'buttons' half. Chuck the old buttons and the new blank key bit. Pair as above, cleaning up the ignition lock with WD40 and exercise first (do it, necessary).
Like I say, just swap the new 'buttons' half of the key fob in and attach it to the front half of your old key fob (which has the transponder in it) @@HatBoyHarvey
These can be tememental at times. The little microswitches fail either by the sodered joints or the button gets clogged with use and stopspressing. These can be replaced (ebay etc) if you are good with a soldering iron,but new boards are available on the internet and shoud work by pairing it, ebay has some. I have found that the battery contacts have to be just in the right place when you put the fob back together and may need a few "goes" to work, I have had this a number of times.
Hi, my lock button has always been problematic. I have to press it very hard to make it work. Unlock and boot open OK. Panic/Courtesy light never worked. Took key apart, new battery but had same issue. Used some contact cleaner on the switch buttons as they were full of verdi grease. Got the panic light button to work then it didn't. So broken or cold solder joints probably. Is it worth trying to resolder the tiny buttons? Can you buy the printed circuit boards? Im in New Zealand and the car was an import from Japan. 3.0L AWD Sovereign Auto 2005. Doesn't have an alarm system interestingly. Not sure if thats market specific or if its been disabled?? Anyway I understand the frequencies are market/country specific?? How do I know which one to buy if they are available?? Thanks
Hi, you need to find the VIN code for your car and then decode it to find what frequency the car is set at. Most are international at 433Mhz, but The Jaguar Parts Catalogue shows the 2005 X-Type Key Fob for Japan as 315mhz. Search online to decipher your VIN is the safest for you. Then the replacement key parts are cheaply and easily available on Ebay; I've used those a number of times and they are easy and work. you can buy new buttons, but it is fiddly and not worth it as I say the whole board and key is cheap. Hope this helps. Oh, by the way I am publishing a new Jag video this Sunday so you may want to tune in for that one :-)
I just looked it up online and the first 3 numbers SAJ denote Jaguar and the 4th digit denotes the market. If this is K then the car is made for Japan market A is rest of world.
Thank you other videos did not say to take the key out then press the buttons then reinsert. The only said to press buttons after audible beep. I was about to return new remotes. Thank you so much all programmed 😁😁😁
I have the same car but auto. My spare key randomly got stuck inside ignition, finally got it free by wiggling it. Im using my original key again and it still feels like it could get stuck again.... will this programming of they keys again possibly fix this?
Something not right there, all I can suggest is that perhaps the fobs are faulty, make sure the fob batteries are new and the car battery fully charged. You can get new key fobs off eBay, easy to program, well I say easy, but yours is not working, but worth a try. I'm not aware the pairing is different on early x type models, but I don't know. Try turning the key back and forth quicker and/or maybe more than 4 times, try 8 times.
Hi Great video! thanks! Dumb question though, do you know is this is for a 2nd hand key (such as getting a key from a wrecker) or a new key on ebay? Someone help with my query?
As long as the fequency is the same it can be programmed like this, but the transponder from another car will not work until that is programmed to the car by an auto locksmith or dealer. The actual flip key part can be purchased as a blank off ebay and cut, but this needs a specialist cutter for these keys.
Same here. My 2008 X-Type 2.2D SE would only go into key pairing mode with the driver's door open, not closed. But then it worked fine and I now have a working spare key fob.
@@HatBoyHarvey can i just buy a jaguar x type key online and pair it with my key i have now like you did in the video? I have 1 key and i want to have a second but i don’t want it to be expensive en stuf like going to dealership For programming wich i don’t understand since you can just do it so easy like you did
@@HatBoyHarvey ok thanks last question, after pulling the original key out the ignition do i only press the new key button or do i first press the original one en then the new one?
Hi I solved it. I did just like on movie but it doesnt work at the end as it is showed here. So I drove a car a little and then stopped. Then doors started to work properly from the key closing and opening as previously.
You need to check the state of your main car battery. If the doors didn't work after you paired them, then it is likely that there wasn't enough power to actuate the locking motors which did work after the car was driven charging the battery enough for it to work. If the battery is in good order then it would most likely have been an electrical connection intermittent glitch such as corrosion/bad contact somewhere. Glad you have your car up and running again :-)

No, the mechanical part of the key is completely separate to the electronics.

@@HatBoyHarvey Thanks so very much!
Do you need to cut the key to match?
The key doesn't effect the pairing electronics.
unfortunately doesnt work for my x-type 3.0 V6 2005r. any thoughts ?
Tried this several times with no luck then tried with door open and it worked ,mine is an 04 x-type estate if this is of any help to anyone else.
Thanks for sharing that :-)
Same here. My 2008 X-Type 2.2D SE would only go into key pairing mode with the driver's door open, not closed.
But then it worked fine and I now have a working spare key fob.
Unfortunately it doesn't work for me. The second key starts the engine as usual, but the fob does not work (battery checked - it's ok)😐
Sounds like you need to buy an new key. They can be had for very little online, ebay and work, easy to program, just like the video -)
Will this work on a 2009 jaguar x type 2.2d automatic ?
Same car, same key so it should be the same.
@@HatBoyHarvey can i just buy a jaguar x type key online and pair it with my key i have now like you did in the video? I have 1 key and i want to have a second but i don’t want it to be expensive en stuf like going to dealership

@@VintageVelocity99 it works with one key.
