Default Key fob

Hi all, new to the forum I hope someone can help.
I have a 2007 x type jag. All doors lock and unlock with the key when you do it through the drivers door, however will not unlock or lock using the remote. So far I have replaced the battery, then the circuit board in the key fob, check the spring loaded flap in the ignition and tried numerous times to recode it, I get the beeps to suggest it has been successful but it still doesn’t work. Last week after reading a thread I removed the RF unit and sprayed it with electrical contact cleaner still no success. I am now out of ideas so any suggestions would be great fully accepted

Welcome to the Forums.

I suggest a re-ask in the X Type (X400) Tech Section.

GGG will see this when the planets align better, and move it for you.

Good luck, I dont have any answers.

Welcome to the forums ghowat,

You've certainly eliminated a lot of the usual possible causes so I've copied your question to X-Type forum for advice from members with the same model. Here's the link to it:
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...ey-fob-279371/

If you haven't already done so, please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Jim,

Blame me for this!

ghowat had Location set as the exact part of Sydney but I amended it to show City, Country for the benefit of members around the World.

Hello,
Once in a while, I have to,"Re-pair" the fob in my Subbie, for what reason I have no idea.
Or, worst case, you need a whole new fob as that one is somehow Dead. I had that happen on a Hyundai once for no particular reason.

I wish you success.
