This worked on my Jaguar 1998 Vanden Plas. I couldn’t believe it. Bought a fob from eBay after losing mine on a trail, and now I have a working key fob again! You rock! Love your thorough, clear explanations
I used this method and had several problems. After several attempts (6) I was successful!! Pulling the high beam the added times would not start the program mode. Trying several times at varying speed to pull the lever was not successful until I went very fast. Then, THE FIRST CHIRP WAS ANYWHERE FROM 3 TO 5 PULLS. I was successful pressing my new remote after the first chirp and again 3 more times, then pressing the original remote (not in the ignition) once. After 5 chirps, I turned the key off and removed it. Both remotes now worked!! Be persistent. I suspect my car was cantankerous!! Thanks Robert.
This worked on my 2004 XJ8. The existing key fob lost its programming when the fob battery died. Adding a new fob battery did not help... so reprogramming was the only option. Thanks so much for doing this video!
Hi Rob, thanks for the very informative lesson. I have an XJ8 like this one. the original fob just stopped working. I got another 3 from the jaguar graveyard and thanks to your advice, I finally got one to work. Here is a tip to pass on. On these older cars, it's worth checking the keyhole to make sure the little gate in there is fully closed. (a little WD40 helps) If it's not fully closed, the car will not enter into program mode. Now I need to adjust the hand brake shoes, have you a video. Thanks. Peter,
Robert I remember you were showing a Jaquar rear light proble. I had similar problem my dashboard read check rear lights I was ready to go to Jaquar not wanting to because of knowing crazy bill. So what I did was go to auto zone store before going in store I stated checking bulb one was very badly rusted after changing bulbs no more check rear lights. I was very happy. Robert keep on the good work.
Followed your directions to the letter and...no good! Tried again, and again and again...nothing.. Then, I thought, "Gee, maybe I put the battery into the key FOB transmitter upside down?" "Nah, No way, I could make a dumb mistake like that..." So, here is my apology. Sorry, I was wrong in doubting your video instructions. They worked perfectly with the battery in correctly. You have saved a lot of folks money by not having to go to the dealer to program their remotes. Thanks
Thanks for showing opening the remote for battery replacement. Even though it's pretty obvious to pry it open, it was reassuring to see it done so you know it's okay to keep going when you get the little resistance on the initial pry. I did not have to reprogram the remote after changing the battery, but I'm glad the instruction was here if I needed to!
Robert thank you for your u tube information I will trying it today I am keeping my fingers cross. I have not seen you on u tube foe a while last time I saw you you were not feeling well, so glad you are well. Stay well you and the family. Keep on doing a great job with helping all of solving our car problems., I appreciate it.
Robert, if you were around here I'd take you ought to a nice lunch with all the money you saved me. Bought a mint 2004 XJ VDP with 2 nice remotes. They started flaking even with new batteries and one quit working. Upon opening them up, the switches were gummed up with finger oil and I had to disassemble and electronic wash the circuit board in Marine Contact cleaner, alcohol, and Caig DeOxit D5. Finally the switches worked loose after all the green slime came ouf of them. Washed them some more and air dried all the cleaner. Buttons were now freed-up moving nicely in and out. Washed the buttons rubber sheet and cases in the sink with water and soad and an old toothbrush. All parts air dried and reassebled with new batteries. With all buttons working crisp and nice, I thought good to go, but still one remote did not work and the other flaked 1/2 the time. Then found your video and tried your sequence, but my car (04) acted a bit different (there is no red LED light by the shifter), It took about 6-7 high beam flashes after key was turned to "1", I think the horn sounded instead of a chirp, and then I did one remote and then the other and turned the key to "0". So there was no need to go through 5 key pressings to exit. Immediately both keys work perfect, all buttons do what they are supposed to do. Unlike the video key, I have the integrated key switchblade stype shape D key remotes. Thanks again! Save a trip to the dealership and who knows how much money. Up for a six-pack?
thank you Robert the guy from e bay where I bought remote said I ordered the wrong remote. He said I can exchange or return I might exchange. Thank you again.
Robert I had problems with my 2000 xj8 Jaquar dashboard saying check rear lights well after making an appointment but cancelling thank goodness I could just imagine the cost I went to check all my bulbs after one breaking and seeing the rust I went to auto zone changed several bulbs with the help from guy in store no more check rear lights saved money & cancelled my Jaquar appointment. I did watch you working on a Jaquar in regards to lights but I believe it was more involved I also remember a 600.00 approx. on cost. Thank you again.
Thanks, Robert. Your procedure worked like a charm for my 2000 Jaguar XK8. You covered each step thoroughly and your directions were easy to follow. I will Subscribe, Like and Share.
You are very welcome. I remember you were showing a Jaquar trouble with rear lights. I had similar problems I made an appointment with Jaquar did not want to because just thinking of high bill amount. Well I went to auto zone I started taking bulbs out one had a rusted base ended up breaking well after changing three bulb., guess what no more check rear lights, I was so happy, I cancelled my Jaquar appointment ASAP.
My newly acquired 2000 XJ8 : I just took the FOB apart to clean due to delayed function, to my surprise it had 2 batteries stacked on top of one another(a first in my past 308 ventures lol). So now it's dead in the water after re-assembling, I'm assuming it must be programmed again once the batteries have been removed, oh the joy lol. With my last 308 seems I remember a website that sold used FOBs already programmed & ready to go, wish I could recall that site. Anyways Robert DIY, I'm back with another toy lol. Thanks for your info. sir.
Phew, this sorted me out after my XJ 2004 X350 had been sat for a couple of months and the battery had gone completely flat. After charging the battery, all was good, but the alarm remotes just didn't work for some reason :-( I used your method and it sorted me out, but I failed half a dozen time before I got it to work. I found that the timing of the high beam flasher pulls was critical; too fast or too slow and nothing happens. I was delighted when I found the right frequency and got those chirps 🙂
Good video, Robert....nice and slow and very informative. I watched another guy on TH-cam and he didn't show the button pushing sequence on the remote as you did. This really helped!
Thanks the high beam flasher method worked like a charm. Only issue I had was that the chirp is so quiet. Could barely hear it in the shop with other cars running.
Thank you for the hard work you do on posting and sharing your videos. Please keep up the good work even though some of us forget to give thumbs up. Godbless you
Great video, I have one working key fob and one to program, do I still need to flash the lights 5 times ? you said something about the program not completing if the car thinks there will be 5 remotes ?
Hi Robert, thanks for your help! I’ve entered the program mode with no problem but after that when I start pressing my new remote I hear 2 churns and the process doesn’t complete (the shift light doesn’t turn on). I’ve a 2001 XJ8
Rob I always watch you on u tube you are very informative with knowledgable, but I still ca not get remote to work I will try again tomorrow on my 2000 xj8 Jaquar. Thank you.
You'll need a level 2 OBD-2 code reader to figure out what has tripped the code. Then fix the offending issue. Could be any of the air bags or a seat belt.
Thank, you for you're video. I, own a 2004, X type 3.0 jaguar I'm having the same problem but this is what I did. I, sprayed some starting fluid in to the air box then the jaguar stared up so I think my problem is a bad electric fuel pump because my friend that I got the jaguar from was just driving it
Worked successfully on my UK model (RHD) 2002 XJ8. Note however, it didn't enter the program mode with the first key I used in the ignition (tried flashing routine 3-4 times) but did first time with the second one (both full black not green valet keys).
Hey Robert I have a 2012 jaguar XJL and my key fob stopped working and I can’t afford to take it to a dealership could you please give me any tips on how to fix the key fob it’s self
Robert thanks for your reply after tomorrow I had enough of tries if you know what I mean LOL. I bought on e bay used of course. Time to return. Thanks again.
@@RobertDIY thank you very much for your reply Robert! I meant to say the lock button inside the car doesn’t work. I keep pressing on it and it makes a small click sound but doesn’t unlock or lock the rest of the doors. The remote only turns the light on and makes a peeping sound!
Robert it was just replacing several new bulbs. Now I am having problems with my remote I bought on e bay. Was in the car for around 20 minutes not working I'm trying your u tube one more time today. Only programming one remote. Unfortunately went bought used car I was only given one remote. Take care.
@@RobertDIY thank you. I have to find something or someone. lol!! it won't even start now. replaced the ecu, ecu computer to get the brakes to work. Endless battle with that car. LOL!!!
Hey Robert, thx for your great video. I followed your video step by step but it my car is still not fixed. My Jaguar is 2005 XJ6 x350 3000cc is it appropriate for my car?
@@jackycheung412 It worked on my 2004 X350, but you need to experiment with the timing of the high beam flashing pulls. I found thatdoing four pulls in less than two seconds worked, but any faster or slower did nothing :-S
I have this car and it seems to be stuck in valet mode , the remote will not open the trunk and the truck bar inside won’t either , I need to use a key . Do you think reprogramming would help this or is there something else we can do?
Hey I have a issue my headlight dosent flash the high beam I check the relay and fuse almost everything still don’t see the red light turn on on programming mode but I hear a beap when i press the remote but new dosent sound it looks like is not getting on program mode
Thanks for the video Robert. One question regarding the key remotes; do they have distance issues ? Meaning if you have to be that close to make the remote to work ... I own a 2000 XJR & 1997 XK8. I do not have remote for the XJR but shopping to get one or two. I do have remote for the XK8 but it gives me a hard time to put it to work. I replaced the battery but still having problems to open/closed the locks. Any recommendations where to buy them for both vehicles ? Thank again !
Great video! Good easy to follow instructions and good views of each step. I also liked the introduction to the key system. I found that it was easier to have the drivers side door open and the trunk (boot) open while I was doing it so I could hear the chirps. I just bought two OEM keys and now need to get them cut at the dealer but I guess they have to be programmed as well. Any videos on programming a new key?
Great Video. LIke you were mentioned when you program one remote the other one stops working. So you mentioned press the button five times for one remote. Is it press the button 10 times for two remotes?
Hi Robert I had a mechanic work on my car and he replaced the security and locking module and then told me that my remote wouldn't work anymore, can you help how can I solve this problem Thank you in advance. I love your videos, you have helped me many times!
the lock works. when i press the ted lock botton it locks an horn beeps but when i press open botton it doesent work at all so i have to stick key in door turn it to open what should i do to fix it to open lock.
Hi Robert, My car s type 2003.I try to re- program my key after change new battery,but nothing work.I only have one remote key.Its possible the receptor from the car not work? Can you please advise. Regards, Acu.
works!!! does anyone know what causes a fan like noise even when the ignition off? when i remove the F99 fuse it stops! but then i have not interior lights it also works sun roof and trunk light, the noise is coming from dash round steering or maybe the fuse box?
Pavee piper How long does it run? Check your owners manual, some cars have a fan that runs for a little while to rid the car of moisture. It should not run to long, or the battery will drain.
Hey Robert .. I have a 1999 XJ8 Sovereign in Africa ... question ... can any remote be programed? or does it have to be the original Jaguar remote that came with the car ?
hello Mr. Robert i have a 2001 jag xj8. How can i replace the signal light controller and the gear shifter housing. I know that these parts are expensive . Any suggestions as to where I can buy these parts at a reasonable price. The signal light controls many electrical functions and the gear shifter housing will allow me to get the car in gear. Thanks in advance
Robert I have a question please. I went again to my car to,program remote I'm ok up to 2 cherubs turn key to me leaving in then press the remote on bought on e bag doesn't work I even pulled out key pressed remote twice still doesn't work, would you know why not programming. Thank you
+Laurna Calabrese if you don't hear the chirp from the horn, indicating that the car has entered into the remote programming mode, there is a problem with the car.
Hi Robert, will this work on a 1999 SType Jaguar.. My original fob ended up immersed in Cola and corroded the contacts...bought a new one of ebay but need to program it....Thanks. Keith.

Hi Robert I had a mechanic work on my car and he replaced the security and locking module and then told me that my remote wouldn't work anymore, can you help how can I solve this problem Thank you in advance. I love your videos, you have helped me many times!
Ok
Does it have to be the master key? Or can it be the valet key that is used to program it?
I do now know. Try it and let us know.
Excellent video very well explained, thank you
+michael stanley thank you for watching.
If I program my new remotes, will my existing keys not work remotely anymore?
I don't even know what kind of car you have.
the lock works. when i press the ted lock botton it locks an horn beeps but when i press open botton it doesent work at all so i have to stick key in door turn it to open what should i do to fix it to open lock.
+Marcell Wright have the remote tested at the dealer or an auto parts store. If the remote is good the controller is probably bad.
This will work if the remote looks different?
I have no idea.
Worked for me on my neighbours Jag but did not get a chirp he's had a new alarm box fitted otherwise it's working fine Thank you.
+James Carruthers you are welcome

An excellent explanation. Thank you.
You are welcome
works!!! does anyone know what causes a fan like noise even when the ignition off? when i remove the F99 fuse it stops! but then i have not interior lights it also works sun roof and trunk light, the noise is coming from dash round steering or maybe the fuse box?
Pavee piper How long does it run? Check your owners manual, some cars have a fan that runs for a little while to rid the car of moisture. It should not run to long, or the battery will drain.
It's the radio antenna. Moter as it closes
Hey Robert .. I have a 1999 XJ8 Sovereign in Africa ... question ... can any remote be programed? or does it have to be the original Jaguar remote that came with the car ?
has to be a remote with the proper frequency.
hello Mr. Robert i have a 2001 jag xj8. How can i replace the signal light controller and the gear shifter housing. I know that these parts are expensive . Any suggestions as to where I can buy these parts at a reasonable price. The signal light controls many electrical functions and the gear shifter housing will allow me to get the car in gear. Thanks in advance
+Armando Perales Not really. Maybe eBay or a Jag forum.
would this work on a Jaguar s-type 2000? or if you know how to do it for this model?
I have no idea
10:13 That looks exactly like a Ford remote circuit board from that era? Has anybody tried Ford remotes?
not to my knowledge.
Robert I have a question please. I went again to my car to,program remote I'm ok up to 2 cherubs turn key to me leaving in then press the remote on bought on e bag doesn't work I even pulled out key pressed remote twice still doesn't work, would you know why not programming. Thank you
+Laurna Calabrese if you don't hear the chirp from the horn, indicating that the car has entered into the remote programming mode, there is a problem with the car.
Good instructions, I'll give it a try
+Lauren Sutherland cool, hope it works out for you.
Great video! Very informative, thanks.
Where is that fan located and how do I switch it off? Some one else said it could be ignition not turning off due to something sticking on?
Pavee piper That is possible. You should be able to turn the fan off with the AC controls. How long does it run after the car is off?
Does this work on 2001 model
It should
Hi Robert, will this work on a 1999 SType Jaguar.. My original fob ended up immersed in Cola and corroded the contacts...bought a new one of ebay but need to program it....Thanks. Keith.
It should. If not, ask the guys on the Jaguar forum.
can this be done on volvo s70 99?
+ZynovFTW Nope, you need Volvo mechanic programming. The mechanic I have here does it for $50.
I dropped my only remote in the water and now is not functioning. Is it possible to to have a new one programmed without a duplicate. Thanks.
Yes.
Excellent presentation
