Tibbe Keys

Some Jaguars in the 1990s were equipped with what's called a Tibbe Key. They require specialized equipment to create since they have flat cuts at precise angles on four distinct sides. They can't be used interchangeably with regular keys, and most locksmiths don't have the equipment needed to cut them. This could result in lengthy waiting times for owners who require replacement keys. Dealerships are also able to cut them but charge a considerable amount.

The lock itself is fairly fascinating, as it is comprised of either 6 or 8 rotary discs that need to be properly aligned so that the sidebar can fall into position and let the door or trunk lock. This is accomplished using a special-looking pick/decoder tool that looks kind of like a drill bit, and the process can be challenging. This tool is only to be used on the DOOR lock and not the ignition or trunk lock.

There are a small number of locksmiths who specialize in Tibbe key production, and their prices differ based on a variety of factors, such as time, effort, cost of equipment and consumables, etc. The adapter kit designed specifically to work on these types of keys may cost several hundred dollars, and each one is set up manually (or a skilled programer can do it on an automated key machine) for every new key that is made.

Key Fob Battery Replacement

The majority of battery packs for key fobs wear out over time, and it's important to keep an extra one in the case. The easiest way to know that it's time to replace is when the key fob no more responds consistently to the buttons. Your Message Center may also alert you that your battery is low.

It's easy to change the battery on your Jaguar keyfob at your garage. It takes only less than a minute. The first step is to remove the key fob apart using the flat-head screwdriver or fingernail. You can tear the two seams connecting the two halves of the key fob and reveal the blade.

You can slide the blade of the key back once the fob has been opened to reveal the old battery. The battery will appear like the shape of a coin, with an X and minus symbol on one side. Make sure you insert a new battery that is similar to the original and then orient it correctly.

Remember to only touch the battery from the sides. Doing so from the top and bottom can cause moisture to transfer which can reduce battery life. Reassemble the fob and test the buttons on the remote to check whether they work. If not, call your local Jaguar Annapolis service pros for assistance.
