How do I program a Jaguar Smart Key? If your Jaguar X Type key fob is losing charge, it might be time to replace the battery. This issue occurs frequently for drivers who use key fobs frequently or participate in outdoor sports. It's a good thing that this procedure isn't as difficult as you think. It's also an excellent idea to do this if you're thinking of adding a second fob to your vehicle. Jaguar X Type keyfobs come with a small battery which is easily accessible. You can replace it with a regular CR2032 cell. They are available at most pharmacies and home improvement stores. Slide the chrome cover of the key fob off to reveal the metal keys. Use the emergency key to remove the body from the fob. Insert the new CR2032. Do not touch the top or bottom of the battery, as this could decrease battery life or cause corrosion to contacts. Once the key is replaced the fob needs to be programmed. You can do this by using the OBD port of your vehicle. It is crucial to remember that all key fobs have to be reprogrammed at a similar time, and any previously programmed keys will no longer work with your vehicle. To program a new key fob, connect the new key to the OBD port and follow the on-screen prompts. How do I replace a battery on my Jaguar Smart Key If you've noticed that your key fob's range has decreased, this is a sign that the battery needs to be replaced. The message center could display SMART KEY low battery to inform you that you need a new battery. You can replace a Jaguar key fob battery by sliding the chrome cover to open the emergency key blade and then prying open the fob's body. Slide the key out of the metal and use it as a lever to open the key case. Take the battery that was CR2032 in place and insert a new one with the positive side facing upwards. Snap the case back into its place and replace the chrome cover. After the battery replacement is installed, you can test the key fob to ensure that everything is functioning exactly as it should. If the low-battery warning appears on the new battery it could be due to moisture or oil from your fingers. Try using a cloth that is lint-free to avoid this problem.
