Need Additional Key and Remote
Good afternoon all! I purchased an 02 S-Type and am in need of an additional key. It does not have a remote but have found several but am unsure if they will work with my car even though they say for 00-04. Does anyone know if there is a way to know for sure if this remote will work? As far as the key I know I will probably have to go to the dealer topurchase but was wanting to know if anyone knows for sure if you do not have to go to the dealer? I have an 02 Vette and the FOB I was able to purchase off ebay and program myself and wondering if I can do the same with my Jag?
Thanks in advance for anyone's help! Have a great day!

RE: Need Additional Key and Remote
I’m in the same boat, well kind of. We picked up our S-type this weekend from a dealer (not a Jaguar dealer) I only got one key/remote. He was honest and told me that the remote did not work. He even tried an new battery with no luck and I would have to go to a Jaguar dealer to get reprogrammed.Sorry Princess I did not intend to hijack your thread.

This is from a post bo did a while back
"From technical bulletins on jaguartechinfo.com ( I paid for a month of access)
OPEN driver door ( leave open )
Key to position one ( accessory position)
cycle key to position two ( ignition position ) and back to position one 4 times. the system will chime to say it is in program mode. leave key in position one
press any button on the key, the system will chime again.
turn key off.
Close the door
now the remote should work."
Im not sure if this wud work for the s-type, but im pretty sure thats how its done for the X

I took in the S-type today to have my only key fob reprogrammed, as it never worked. I also had a new key cut and new fob programmed. To make a long story longer, I almost dropped $300. However, they did wash the car.[sm=yeahsmile.gif]
For anyone needing an additional key fob, let me advise y’all to get one or two used key fobs off ebay. They won’t be able to use the key, but that can be easily replaced. New key fobs cost about $70. A new key laser cut will cost about $60.

so to program 2 keys and a carwash they charged you about $170, i bet it only took em about 5 minutes to do it too. i think we need ssome techs to come and help us out and tell us the secret of programming the keys

Yup. I know that there is a code. I saw the tech with a piece of paper in his hands, walking towards the car, with the new remote in hand. However I took him about twenty minutes, so it must be tricky.
