2014 Jaguar XJ Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Out in Fletcher Hills, El Cajon, I got a call from a guy who had already paid someone else before he called me. That is never a fun way to start a conversation.

He had searched for a locksmith, clicked on one of those low-bid ads, and somebody showed up at his place and quoted one price on the phone and a very different one at the car. He paid it because he needed his 2014 Jaguar XJ running. The key the guy left him would physically press into the start button surround, but the car sat there with a key-not-detected warning and would not crank. The fob had never been paired to the vehicle's immobilizer system. He had an expensive paperweight.

He found me through Google Guaranteed and the first thing he asked was whether I was licensed. That is exactly the right question. I gave him my BSIS license number while we were still on the phone and told him to look it up on the BSIS public search before I drove anywhere. He did. Good.

When I got to the car in Fletcher Hills, I connected through the OBD port using a tool with proper JLR coverage, ran the key registration procedure through the vehicle's security module, and paired his five-button fob to the car. All five buttons confirmed. Start confirmed. The whole job took under an hour at his driveway.

The dealer was an option he had already priced before the first locksmith showed up. My number was a fraction of what they wanted and, unlike the first guy, I quoted it on the phone and that is exactly what he paid.
