Jaguar Key Blanks and Key Types

Jaguar keys have changed a great deal over the years, from simple cut keys on classic cars to smart keys with no blade in daily use at all.

FO21. The Ford era blade used on the S-Type, X-Type and some XJ and XJR models.

TBE1. Listed for older XJ, XJ6, XJ8, XJR, XJS, XK8 and XKR models.

UNI11. Listed for classic models such as the E-Type and older XJ6.

Most modern Jaguars, including the XF, XE, XJ, F-Type, F-Pace, E-Pace and I-Pace, use a smart proximity key with a hidden emergency blade. The full table of Jaguar models, years and key blanks is further down this page, along with remote and smart key details. It comes from our trade supplier application list, which is correct at the time of writing but may not be exhaustive.

Jaguar Smart Key Programming

Every modern Jaguar smart key holds a transponder and a remote that are paired with the car. The key lets you unlock the doors and start the engine with the key in your pocket. A replacement smart key has to be programmed to the car before it will work.

Some newer Jaguar models use smart keys with ultra wideband technology to help protect against relay theft, and others use passive entry without it. The right key depends on the exact model and build, so we always check the details before ordering a key. Our technicians programme the key on site and remove any lost keys from the car.

Replacing Lost Jaguar Keys

If every Jaguar key has gone, do not book a recovery truck. We can make a new key from scratch at the vehicle. The blade is cut to the lock, the key is programmed to the car, and any missing keys are removed from the car's memory so they will not work if someone finds them.

Bring your V5C logbook and photo ID to the appointment. Proof of ownership is checked on every lost key job we do.

Most lost key jobs are finished in one visit, wherever the car is parked.

Jaguar Car Key Replacement and Mobile Help

Car key replacement is the job we do most for Jaguar drivers. Whether you need one car key or a full set, our auto locksmith will cut the car key, programme it and test it at the car. A car key replacement from an auto locksmith is usually quicker and better value than a dealer, because the auto locksmith comes to you and the car never leaves your drive. Our mobile team also looks after Jaguar drivers in Braintree and Wimbledon.

Mobile Specialist Help for Lost, Broken and Duplicate Keys

Our mobile technician is a vehicle specialist. If your Jaguar key is lost, the technician will make a new one. If it is broken, the technician will replace the broken blade or remote. If you want a duplicate, the technician will duplicate the key and the remote fob on site. Need emergency assistance with entry to a locked Jaguar? The technician will unlock the door without damage and give you access again.

Remote Fob Problems

A remote fob that has stopped working is one of the most common calls. The technician will test the remote, replace the fob battery or programme a new remote fob, and check that the door locks and central locking respond. If a remote is lost, the lost fob is removed from the vehicle so it cannot unlock the car.

Jaguar XF, XE, F-Pace and E-Pace Keys

The XF and XE saloons and the F-Pace and E-Pace SUVs are the Jaguar models we see most often in Essex and London. All use smart keys, and all are well suited to a spare key supplied and programmed at your home or office.

We also cover the XJ, F-Type and the electric I-Pace, along with older S-Type, X-Type and XK models that use remote head keys. Because Jaguar and Land Rover share key technology, our experience with Land Rover keys carries straight over.

Common Jaguar Key Problems

Smart Key Not Detected

A key not detected warning can mean a flat battery or a faulty key. We can test the key and programme a replacement if needed.

Worn Remote Head Key

On older S-Type and X-Type models, the remote head key can wear at the blade and the buttons. We can replace the case or supply a new key.

Down to One Key

Smart keys for prestige cars cost more to replace when every key is lost. Adding a spare while you still have one is the sensible move.

Jaguar Door Locks, Ignition Locks and Lock Service in Essex

Keys and locks work as a pair. A worn key wears the lock, and a worn lock makes a new key feel stiff. When an Essex auto locksmith attends your Jaguar, we check the locks as well as the key, so the vehicle is secure and the new key turns smoothly in every lock.

If one of the locks is sticking, we will tell you whether a simple service, a repair or a replacement part is needed. We never fit a part you do not need, and every lock service is quoted first.

Broken Key in the Lock

If a key snaps in a door lock or the ignition, do not try to force it out. Our auto locksmith will extract the broken part without damage to the lock, then cut a replacement key on the spot.

Locks After a Break In

If someone has tried to force the locks on your vehicle, call us. We will check every lock, give you access to the car again and advise on repair or replacement so your Jaguar is secure.

Which Jaguar Locks Can We Help With?

• Door locks on the driver and passenger side
• Boot locks and tailgate locks
• Ignition locks and steering locks
• Central locking that no longer locks or unlocks the doors
• Van locks and extra security locks on work vehicles

Why use a specialist auto locksmith rather than a general locksmith? Car locks are not house locks. A vehicle locksmith understands door locks, steering locks, ignition locks and the electronics behind them, and has the tools to open locks without damage. That is the only kind of locksmith work we do.

Fair Prices for Jaguar Keys

We keep pricing straightforward. You get a quote on the phone, there is no call out fee, and the price does not change when we arrive.

The cost depends on the Jaguar model and year, the key blank, and whether you need a remote, a flip key or a smart key. Adding a spare key while we are already with you is the best value of all.

Compare our quote with a main dealer and you will usually find we offer better value, with no wait for the key to be ordered.

The cost of Jaguar car keys comes down to three things: the car, the type of car key and whether you still have a working key. Spare car keys cost the least. Replacement keys after every car key is lost cost more, because the car has to be fully reprogrammed. We tell you the cost of the car key service before we start.

Losing car keys is also a car security issue. We remove lost car keys from the car memory as part of the service, wherever you are in our areas, for cars and vans of every make.

Emergency Jaguar Lockout Assistance

A Jaguar lockout is rarely planned. Keys left on the seat, a fob that has died, or someone in the family who has driven off with the only spare. If you need emergency assistance, call us and our nearest technician will come to you.

We unlock the vehicle without damage, using non destructive entry methods every time, and give you access to the car again as quickly as possible. Every lockout service call should end the same way: the car is open, the area is safe and you can get on with your day. That is the peace of mind our customers are paying for.

What if the lock itself is damaged?

If a lock has been damaged by an attempted break in, we will tell you honestly whether a new key, a repair or a rekey is the right answer before any work is agreed.

The content on this page, including the key blank table, is here to help you understand your Jaguar. Use the links below to read more about each auto locksmith service.
