Welcome to the Forums.

No idea.

Not any info on teh Jag you be messing with. The members in the related Tech Section will probably know.

Might pay to add the vehicle details, to help us help you.

Good luck.

Welcome to the forums Isaac,

It's a transponder chip which is used to match an ignition key to a vehicle as an additional security feature. As you give absolutely no clue to the MAKE. MODEL or YEAR I can't give you any further detail.

I believe that is a miniature flashlight to help find your keyhole. There may be a door on the opposite side for a battery
