I got stranded in the City last year - same symptoms. What I did was disconnect (and reconnect) the three plugs on the left-hand side of the module, (module in situ). Problem went away and car started. Theorising that (1): pins on connector were tarnished, and reseating connectors burnished contacts. This is a common problem with circuit boards. Or (2): powering down module reset it back to normal. It's worth a try before removing module.
Very good video, thank you. I have this intermittently, but if I press lock/unlock, on the fob the indication goes away. Also, two or three times a month, the car (an automatic) will idle very slowly then stall when pulling away at a junction. Do you think this too could be a problem with the BCM?
I have the "Smart Key Not Found" problem with one of the keys on my 2010 XF it won't unlock the doors or boot either but when I insert the key into the slot at the bottom of the dashboard it starts the car! The other key works fine starts the car and locks/unlocks doors etc. I am assumimg the problem is with the one key rather than the ECM. Have tried changing the key battery but hasn't worked. I'm not sure if the non-working key needs to be reprogrammed or whether it needs to be repaired - any thoughts? Thanks
Hi watched video sent my bcm got a replacement they said mine was done got the replacement put it in everything lights up but still not recognizing the key smh i really can't afford stealership....
hello sir my jag xf show check pedestrian system but nothing damage on front they scan clear codes but still showing same on instrument cluster any advice helpful thanks
Hi - I live in USA and mine is 2014 Jaguar XF 3.0L SC. I started getting Unable to find smart key message during rainy days when car would be out sitting on driveway, then it would go away when sun came out. Couple of weeks ago car did the same but did not start even after sun coming out. I took it to dealer in USA and this is what they said : Found codes B102B-87 and B1B01-55key transponder not configured. Upon further inspection found there is corrosion inside BCM. Recommend replace the BCM. New BCM(just part) is $3.5K. The dealer said BCM is built for your car VIN so you cannot buy a used one. I'm hoping my BCM is not completely dead or I can find a used BCM and replace ? Any advise you can give . Thx. The car has new battery and both remotes also have new Duracell battery. So its definitely not the battery
@@redwillsdiychargedupvideo1486 he still not replied to anyone. But some how I've seen it fixed by just updating the software with a special tool JLR or so on.
Thank you for this video...good explication and problem solved...here in France Jaguar said juste: you must replace all", they do not know how to make this kind of reparations...i have a bad expérience...
I used to be a mechanic , but 38 years ago, unfortunately I became disabled with arthritis so cant do my own repairs any more, and can only drive an automatic Problem is Im a new Jaguar XF diesel owner from tomorrow. Its a 1998 model but done a load of checks its looks like a new car inside and out transmission and engine is quieter than my old BMW323i Im trading in. But all my life used normal keys of course. This model hasnt got a normal ignition key. I have no idea how to use it, ?? do I put it on my house key ring when leaving vehicle. seems wierd. I dont know this slot yet. I have no idea once it starts if you remove the gadget?? some said it just has to be in the cubby hole in centre console not in the slot shown. I have no idea. worried!! at 72 im not used to this. maybe you can point me to a tutorial on how to use this funny key thing that look like a normal alarm on and off but seems more complicated than that. Thanks

Hi, you can buy a second-hand BCM AND
clone, your old one.
ANY auto locksmith can solve your problem might be in hundreds not in thousands but sorry my reply is late.
Did you managed to fix it?
Yes we want to know Did you get it fixed who did you send your bcm to in the US

Hi, who did you send the unit to, and what did they do to it
@@thefix9823 Haii !! Today morning they programmed in car itself !! Didn’t take the unit out , I’ll let you know what they did very soon !!
@@Vic-lg6ej what did they do bud. I am in same boat
Hi, they re flashed the software in the D

Can you tell me what company repaired your BCM? I have a Jaguar XF same issue.
Where is your garage?
This happened to my XF, turned out I broke a metal connector off changing the battery, told that’s a common issue
What did you have to do ?
Hi, I had to send the BCM Module off to an online company to repair the software on the unit.
Happens a lot, I can usually repair them when you snap the battery contacts off.
Hi. I have the same problem but the companies here in the United States are scammers. Please tell me who you sent the Body Control Module to so that I can send mine to them. Thanks.
Hi, I sent it to
Pelican Diagnostics
