Question 1

I lost all my keys to my 2020 Range Rover. Can you still make a new one?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all-keys-lost on a 2020 Range Rover is doable, and it's a job we handle on site. The process involves authenticating into the vehicle's immobilizer and key management system using JLR-specific diagnostic equipment, re-establishing the security baseline, and registering fresh fobs from scratch. The emergency blade also gets cut to the vehicle.

This is one of the more involved jobs in the mobile locksmith world. The 2020 Range Rover uses an encrypted communication path between the fob and the immobilizer, so the tooling has to be capable of speaking that language properly. Dealers often quote significantly high figures for all-keys-lost on this generation and may request the vehicle be flatbedded in. We come to you in Alpine and handle it where the car sits. Plan on roughly one to two hours on site.

Question 2

Does my 2020 Range Rover have to be towed to the dealer if I have no working keys?

Accepted Answer

No. A mobile locksmith with the right JLR-capable tools can do all-keys-lost right where the vehicle is parked. Dealers will often tell you to flatbed it in, and Range Rover owners on forums have documented their vehicles sitting at dealerships for extended periods waiting on parts, scheduling, or module orders. We come to you in Peutz Valley or anywhere in Alpine and handle the job the same day in most cases, no tow required.

Question 3

How long does an all-keys-lost job take on a 2020 Range Rover?

Accepted Answer

On site, plan for one to two hours. The 2020 Range Rover's security architecture requires a proper diagnostic sequence with authenticated JLR tooling, and some of that process has built-in timing you can't rush. It's not a quick plug-and-play job, but it's also not an all-day affair when the tech has the right equipment and knows the platform.

Dealer timelines are a different story. Forum threads are full of owners describing weeks-long waits, parts arriving incorrect, and vehicles sitting undriven. The on-site mobile route cuts all of that out entirely.

Question 4

My 2020 Range Rover shows a key warning on the dash even though the fob is in my hand. What's going on?

Accepted Answer

This is one of the most common complaints I see from Range Rover owners online. A few things can cause it.

First suspect is always the fob battery. A CR2032 that's low but not fully dead can cause exactly this: the vehicle sees the fob intermittently, throws a warning, then clears it a moment later. Swap the battery before assuming anything bigger is wrong.

If the battery is fresh and seated correctly and the warning keeps coming back, the next thing to look at is whether there's interference in the area where you're using the fob. Key signal suppression from phone proximity, certain aftermarket accessories, or even specific locations near signal-heavy equipment is a real thing with these vehicles.

If neither of those explains it and the problem follows the fob consistently, then it's worth having the fob and vehicle connection checked. In rare cases the fob can lose its pairing integrity and need to be re-registered to the immobilizer. That's a job requiring proper diagnostic equipment, not a DIY fix.

Question 5

Can I buy a replacement fob online and just have someone program it?

Accepted Answer

You can, but buy carefully. The fob has to match the factory FCC ID on your existing fob exactly. If you pull the back cover off your current fob you'll see the ID printed there. An incompatible fob won't pair no matter how good the programming equipment is.

Assuming you get the right part, yes, a locksmith with JLR tooling can register it to your vehicle. You'll still need the emergency blade cut to match your door and ignition cylinder. The programming itself is not something you can do at home on this generation of Range Rover. There's no self-programming sequence available.
