Default trouble with incontrol

I've successfully linked my incontrol account to my car. The end of the registration process asked for a PIN and when I put in a PIN it said, "input contains reserved characters." How do I get passed this?

Has to be a four digit number. Is that what's causing the error?

It seems to be. I picked a number and then tried various others when the original didn't work. Same error message.

Uninstall the app from your cell phone. Then reload it and make certain you are using the right app. There were a number of them when I loaded mine.

Also PIN should be 4 digits and no duplicate numbers right next to each other.

ps: it appears they cleaned up the apps...there's only one "Jaguar Apps" app on the app store now.

I tried that but the problem is with the set up website. It doesn't recognize any PIN I try. I was hoping this was a common problem that would have had a known work around.
I'm likely going to have to contact the dealership.

Did your. Dealer register you or did you register yourself?

This might help you if you haven't seen this PDF before...
