Are you certain the battery is in the right way round?

Thank's to everyone who replied to my question regarding my smart key fault,
After contacting a main jaguar dealer, i found out that just below the battery terminal inside the smart key, there is a small contact that can be "flattened" when closing after putting in a new battery, this tiny contact should be standing up so it makes a contact to the two half's when closed or you won't emit a signal.
This has now been rectified, so a big thank you to all who helped and to the jag dealer in Wolverhampton who spotted the error.
