If your Jaguar X Type key fob is starting to lose its charge, it might be time to replace the battery.

Jaguar X Type keyfobs come with a battery that is easily accessible. You can replace it by using a standard CR2032 cell. They are available in most pharmacies and home improvement stores. To begin, slide the chrome cover off of the key fob to reveal the metal key. Make use of the emergency key blade to break the body of the fob, and then insert a new CR2032. Be cautious not to touch the bottom or top of the battery, as this can reduce battery life and corrode contacts.

Once the key is replaced the fob will have to be programmed. This can be accomplished using the onboard diagnostics (OBD) port that is located in your vehicle. It is essential to note that all key fobs must be reprogrammed in the same time, and any previously programmed keys will no longer work with your car. Connect the reprogrammed keys to the OBD port and follow the instructions on the screen.
