Here's What Happens Next (And How We Save You Thousands)
Losing all your keys to a modern Jaguar, Land Rover, or Range Rover isn't just inconvenient. It's a technical emergency that most locksmiths can't solve. Your vehicle's sophisticated security system is designed to prevent exactly this scenario, which is why main dealers often quote eye-watering prices and multi-week delays.
At JLR Auto Keys, we specialize in all-keys-lost (AKL) situations across England, using dealer-level technology to program new keys when everyone else says it's impossible.
Unlike older vehicles where a locksmith could simply cut a new blade and program a basic transponder, modern Jaguar Land Rover vehicles (2010–2026) use a multi-layered security architecture:
When all keys are lost, these modules enter a "locked" state that prevents standard programming. This is where most locksmiths give up and where dealers start quoting replacement costs.
Here's what typically happens when you take an all-keys-lost JLR to a main dealer:
The reality: In most cases, these modules don't need replacing. They need specialist programming that dealers either can't or won't do.
We use professional-grade engineering tools that allow us to bypass the "locked" module scenario without replacement. Our process is efficient and mobile:
We come to your location with dealer-level diagnostic equipment. We connect via OBD-II to read KVM and BCM security data and provide a fixed-price quote on-site.
We use advanced JLR-specific equipment to unlock the KVM module and synchronize BCM/RFA modules to accept new key data—no module removal required in most cases.
Program genuine OEM smart key fobs with encrypted data. We ensure proper UWB functionality on 2021 to 2026 models and test all entry/start functions.
Clear diagnostic codes, verify synchronization across all modules, and provide a 12-month warranty on programming and electronics.
