Default Weird problem with security and lock system

Neither my key fob NOR the key will lock or unlock the doors anymore. Neither the in dash or trunk lid button will open the boot and the in dash button will not open the fuel lid. Also the reversing sensors no longer function.. No warning lights and everything else workds fine. The battery is good and I can't find any bad fuses

Any ideas ?

The only thing I can suggest is go out and do a few miles. The electrics on Jags can be temperamental and often sort themselves out after a few good miles of driving even when the battery is fully charged.

Do the top and rear quarter windows function OK?

It may be helpful to have the car scanned by a system cabaple of reading the Body (B-prefix) and Network (U-prefix) diagnostic trouble codes. Most generic scanners can only read the Powertrain (P-prefix) codes. You need either a dedicated Jaguar tool or a higher-end scan tool like an Autel, Launch, AutoLogic, or possibly a Snap On.

Cheers,

Don
