Default keys

Hello everyone, I bought an XJR without remote control or key. I managed to get two new keys, but without a transponder.
What needs to be purchased to start the vehicle, the keys work but nothing happens, the doors work, but not the engine.
Thank you very much for your help, sorry for English, I use google translate

Keys will have to be programmed to vehicle using a proper scan tool. Dealer software or autologic will do it. you may have to have towed to dealer and have keys programmed to work with car.

Your forum profile says you have a XJ6 -- X300 XJR???

what is the vin number (vehicle identification number):

Vehicle V.IN.# : Vehicle Identification Number, usually found at the bottom of drivers side windshield.




Here is the weblink to the Jaguar VIN decoder webpage:

Jaguar VIN Decoder

Here is a weblink to the 1996 Jaguar XJ (X300) Drivers Handboo PDF file:
