Thanks a million , nice of you to create the video and give locksmith referral

Thanks for this. Another very useful video that you have produced.

Hello, I encountered the problem that you describe. The excessive play of the key in the neiman prevents the 12v power supply on the black wire, which goes to the gecm. Dtc code P1638 and P1260. This wire supplies the starting authorization request network via the anti-pats in the dashboard, the transponder on the neiman and the remote key. I helped myself by connecting the black cable to the green and orange cable position 2 of the neiman which goes to the ignition relay. The best solution maybe is to pull a wire from the fuse box through a switch and connect it just before the gecm to the black wire which comes directly from the neiman, this will create an additional protection by restoring voltage to the immobilizer circuit. I hope my post is clear enough, my english is not perfect sorry. it works only with the remote key associated with the transponder To only do short-term, the best is to replace the neiman, but this can save tow truck costs. If that can help someone out.

Thank you for all the information 😊👍

My key broke for my 2004 Jaguar and is left somewhere. It only had one key. But I have a 2003 Jaguar that's a parts car at home that has 2 keys. Can I take the ignition out from the 2003 Jaguar and slip it into the 2004 without having to get it programmed. If I can, how do I go about taking the ignition out of the 2004 being that I no longer have a key to get the ignition turned to the first faze of the key turn to pull the ignition out because its broken?

Thanks for all... Where I need to send my key?

Where did you get the pick tool you are using?

I’m having the same problem with my 2007 jaguar stype. Now the ignition switch got loose and fell down into the space. How can I get that repaired? Do you fix other people jaquar?

thanks for this video, very cool but i have small doubt, if i have no key how to get this out? also, is the immobilizer inserted in this ignition switch or somewhere else?
