security lock module

I had the security module on my '05 go a few years ago. Everything worked fine but the remote key fobs. When I took it apart, it had some water inside. At that time the car was still under a warranty and the Jag dealer in Buffalo, NY told me they wouldn't cover it and it would cost over a grand for a new module. I went to another dealer and no problem, it was covered. (real question is where did the water come from - the trunk was and still is dry).
I was told there are batches that they had to go by. Not everyone would work in your car, but you had a number range that would. I saw a pdf on this thread, which is probably how it worked, but I didn't have time to read it.
Good luck. After I had mine replaced, no problems at all.

Hi Keith,
Had the same problem, remotes would not work, everything worked with key. As you, tried everthing, even got our electronic tech guys at work to check it over, but to no avail, the SLM just would not accept a signal.
I could not find a secondhand one so bit the bullet and I got a new SLM through a local indepenant Jag dealer, watched while he changed them over and programmed the key fobs and bingo, everything works.
Whole job took about 30 mins, an expensive part and cost about £400+ in total to fix, but glad it's all working and anyway my P & J is worth it. Hope you have better luck

Just a update on my SLM problems. I have ordered a new SLM from a well known main dealer who offered me a very good price, fitted and programmed.
It turns out that all XK,s from my year on [2003] have exactly the same SLM and they are programmed by the dealer.
I would like to say a big thankyou to all who tried to help and an even bigger one to H20boy who offered to get me one in the USA.
Just hope it works when they fit it,and I will keep you informed.
Regards
Keith

I've also read it must come from a Convertible or your roof pump will run continuously.
Here's TSB 418-03 on module compatability:
Attachment 32529
The market is programmed at build stage which suggests a US module can be reprogrammed for a UK vehicle.

How can I find out if the SLM comes from convertible to avoid the problem with roof pump???
