It's probably time to replace your Jaguar X Type battery if you notice that the key fob is losing its charge. This is a problem that occurs frequently for drivers who frequently use key fobs or play outdoor sports. This procedure is simpler than you think.

Jaguar X Type keyfobs come with a tiny battery that is easily accessible. You can replace it with a standard CR2032 battery. These can be found at most home improvement and pharmacies. To begin, slide the chrome cover off of the key fob to reveal the iron key. Use the emergency key to separate the body from the fob. Insert a new CR2032. Avoid touching the bottom or top of the battery since this can reduce battery life or corrode contacts.
After the key has been replaced the fob will have to be programmed. This can be done with the onboard diagnostics (OBD) port on your vehicle. It is crucial to remember that all key fobs need to be reprogrammed at the exact time, and that any previously programmed keys will no longer function with your car. Connect the newly programmed keys to the OBD port and follow the instructions on the screen.
