No code for jag x type radio - 2002 Jaguar X-Type

I had a Jag with the same issue. I had to pull the radio out and get the model and serial number then contact Jaguar to get the radio code (and pay $10). There are several websites that offer "free" access to radio codes for Jags but you end up having to remove the radio and get the information anyway.

Does it need a radio code?

Your owners manual may tell you, or
call a dealer & ask

if its the original fitted radio contact jag agent with your chassis number found in your log book if its not the original contact radio manufacturer

Jag radio code would have been with the original owners booklet / service book etc.
Depending on the radio you can go online to sites that will sell you the code for a few bucks, if not see a dealer but don't hold your breath.

Call your dealer and ask for procedure to unlock radio. They may need VIN and proof of ownership.

I am not sure about thsi but some Jags had the immobilizer system connected with the original radio as there was also a code sequence to put in, does the car start if the fuse is back?

Go to selling dealer and obtain code or remove radio get serial number and go to any Jag dealer to obtain the code using the serial number!

Simple contact you local Jag dealership and ask them, they will need the VIN No and there is a small charge (about £8). Then follow the instructions on http://www.bluejag.co.uk to enter code.

Only available from your Main Jag dealer or a Radio Decoding Service


Will not be available for free from anywhere on the Internet

I have the same exact car and when I had to replace my battery I had to reset radio code also. Fortunately, I have the code card, but I didn't know that at first and I typed in a random code, and then it kind of "froze" it saying Searching for code or something to that sort. I called a Jag 800 number (any Jag 800 should be fine) and they told me the steps and my code, you will probably need a VIN #.
