Hello ! Glad to find some info on the FOBS.. I have 2 fobs, non-working, for my 97 xj6L... I was told to put new batteries in them and reprogram them. Would you or anyone out there have the correct reprogramming directions for this? I think I remember seeing them online once before. Everyone here seems to say "reprogram" like it is EZ but if I remember it requires a lot of steps... any help would be most appreciated... thank you!
No. I doubt that I’ll work. A few posts up in this thread a member posted the .pdf to Jaguar service procedure. I even remarked on thanking that person for posting. The Saab key fobs the buttons are backwards though....no biggie. I even took one Of mine apart and moved the rubber buttons.
also when you program, the order in which you do so corresponds with driver numbers? Like the first fob is driver 1 I think? For the seat and column memory system. So if it’s all working and you unlock with the fob that corresponds to your saved memory numbert....it should start moving or already be done when you get to the car. If another driver had moved things.
I am really hoping this can help me with my 97 XJ6 too.
Can I ask how you programmed the fob? I have just read another post from another owner who listed the following steps. Are these what you used?
open the driver side door
pulling highbeam lever and holding
put the key and move to i position
and release the highbeam lever
and quick flash highbeam 4 times
and you can hear horn once
after sound press lock button each key fob which you want to setting
(also you have to press lock button which in key box)
and remove the main key from key box
you can hear the horn twice.
Finish self setting your jag key fob.
Hi Jayne, I was never able to reprogram my fobs... I plan to do this very soon and have found a local jaguar service person to help me with this. I will update when I know more.. good luck,, Dee
Hi Motorcarman! This manual for reprogramming the FOBs .. it says for a 1995-96 model. Will this work on the 97 xj6L as well? thank you so much! Jagicon
