Service Overview
Our Add Additional Key Fob service provides a genuine JLR smart key matched to your vehicle. We source the correct key for your model, cut the emergency blade where applicable, and program the remote locking and keyless entry functions. You receive a complete working key ready for immediate use.
This service suits owners who need a spare key, want a backup for a family member, or have lost a key and require a replacement. We use the same diagnostic platform that authorised workshops use for key programming and security coding.
What the Service Includes
- Genuine JLR smart key fob matched to your vehicle VIN
- Emergency blade cutting where required
- Remote locking and unlocking programming
- Keyless entry and push-button start synchronisation
- Immobiliser transponder coding
- Full functional test of all key buttons and proximity functions
How the Additional Key Fob Programming Works
Modern JLR vehicles use encrypted communication between the key fob and the vehicle’s security modules. When you add a new key, the body control module and immobiliser system must learn the unique codes of the fob. LR-Retrofit connects to the vehicle using JLR diagnostic equipment and performs this coding sequence.
The programming process registers the new key alongside your existing keys. All keys in the set then operate correctly. The vehicle recognises the additional fob as an original factory key with full access to remote locking, keyless entry, push-button start, and tailgate functions where fitted.
JLR Platform Compatibility
We supply additional key fobs for Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, Range Rover Velar, Range Rover Evoque, Discovery, Discovery Sport, Jaguar F-Pace, XF, XE and I-Pace. Most vehicles from 2013 onward with smart key systems qualify. Our team confirms your VIN and current key specification before you order.
Programming Process
LR-Retrofit technicians complete the programming at our workshop. We connect to the vehicle using JLR diagnostic equipment, program the new key to the body control module, and synchronise the immobiliser. We then cut the emergency blade and test all functions including remote lock, unlock, and keyless entry. The process preserves your existing keys and security settings.
