I believe the dealer can reprogram your fob in 5 minutes or so to re enable the remote all lock feature.

 

You may already know this but i just learned that the buzzing in the dashboard you hear when you get in your car is a fan that circulates are over the humidity sensor so that when you turn on your climate control you don't get a rush of hot air.

 

Is there no DIY way of programming in the window function in the keyfob?

 

Since this Jag was developed during the Ford era,
I had to try programming one of my wife's old (2007 Mustang) key fobs... well it worked like a charm
Now it only works for the Lock/Unlock function + the Boot release, but it did save me buying a FOB elsewhere

Cheers

Just found out... the red button turns the headlights on, making for a safe walk up the drive...

 

Good for you then lol

 

I have an 02 and the global close function works with my keyfob. All windows and sunroof close. I have to hold the lock button for about 2 seconds. The function is described in the manual.

 

The other thing I found out from this forum is how to disable the auto locking feature. i don't like having all the doors lock when I start driving.

 

I wish my Jag would drive itself and shoot missiles and make awesome hamburgers so I don't have to drive to lunch.

 

I wish mine had another six inches of legroom in the back, an ice bucket, refrigerator, & a selection of Gins & Tonics...

 

LOL.... I always wondered what that was!

 

should've gone with the xj in that case

 

I asked my dealer about this when I got the car and he told me that it was supposed to be nearly silent but that over time the module got dust in it and it made noise. He replaced mine under warranty and indeed it was nearly silent. Apparently it is activated/deactivated when you open the door. If you turn off the car and exit but leave the window down and go out and stick your head inside after about 15 minutes, you will not hear it. Open the door and get in the car and lo and behold, it is running.

 

Makes sense. Mine was buzzing. I first sprayed some air and then sprayed some WD 40 and the fan became silent. Not that the sound was overly irritating or anything. It started the buzz recently and looks like I nipped it in the bud!

On another note. I didn't realize an iPad fits quite perfectly in the center console and if you're using the Apple case it stays in place even on a bumpy ride.

Hi Aluni2230,
Mine too has a quite loud Buzz....
Please tell me, exactly where did you spray the WD40 - so that I too may be rid of that pesky buzz.

Regards,
Larry

 

Hi Tarheel72,
I have just initiated your described 15 min test.... to see if mine actually stops too?

will advise on outcome shortly.

Regards,
Larry

 

First sprayed compressed air through the tiny vents near the steering for a good 30 secs or so. Then inserted the WD 40 into the same vents very generously as far as it would go. I have no idea if that is a bad thing but it sat there overnight and my buzzing is gone. WD 40 also fixed squeaks in my center arm rest. Just sprayed all the plastic latches etc.

 

Nope, mine is still buzzing - after 15 mins.
will continue to monitor this (give it another 15) and check again

 

OK so I checked mine and the windows go down when you hold the unlock but they don't go up

 

YES..... mine stopped after 20 mins Yeah !!

Now then, I wonder where I left my can of WD40....

 

I am finding a new feature every day in my2005 X type VDP.
