How to Replace a Jaguar X Type Key Fob
The Jaguar X-Type was a luxury entry-level car that was manufactured and sold from 2001 to 2009 by Jaguar. It was a front engined, all-wheel drive vehicle that was sold in estate and sedan body types.
Like a lot of modern cars, the Jaguar X Type uses a key fob that's programable. It can be programmed without special equipment by a locksmith.
What is the Jaguar Smart Key
Jaguar Smart Key allows you to lock or unlock your car by using a smart key fob. It has a number of added features that make daily driving easier and more comfortable.
Jaguar offers two types of Smart Key Systems: standard and Display Key. Standard Smart Keys provide the same functions as a traditional key like locking and unlocking, as well as remote start. However the Display Key includes a small LCD touchscreen with a color display that shows various information about the vehicle such as status updates for the engine, navigation, and more. It is also a simple and quick method to control basic functions within your car, like turning on the headlights, or activating panic alarm.
To use your Jaguar Smart Key, simply go to your vehicle and place the fob in your pocket or bag and it will sense it. Pick any door handle to unlock your XE when it is within range. Once inside, press the start button to begin your engine and then put your foot on the brakes to start driving around Rumson and Colts Neck.

How do I program a Jaguar Smart Key?
If your Jaguar X Type key fob is beginning to lose charge, it might be time to replace the battery. This is a problem that occurs frequently for drivers who use key fobs often or participate in outdoor sports. It's not as difficult as you think. It's also a great thing to do if you're planning to add a second key fob to your vehicle.
Jaguar X Type key fobs have a small battery that is easily accessible and you can replace with the standard CR2032 coin cells. They are available at most pharmacies and home improvement stores. Slide the chrome cover of the key fob to reveal the key made of metal. Use the emergency key blade to separate the body of the fob and then put in a new CR2032. Be careful not to touch the top or bottom of the battery, as this could lower the life of the battery and cause corrosion contacts.
After the key has been replaced the fob will have to be programmed. You can do this using the OBD port of your vehicle. Remember that all keys must be reprogrammed in order to work and that keys previously programmed won't work with your vehicle. To program the new key fob connect the newly programmed key to the OBD port and follow the on-screen prompts.

The Jaguar key fob can be replaced by sliding the chrome cover, then releasing the blade for emergency keys, and then prying open the body.
