Hello. It seems your ECM/PCM are to blame. The 'computer' is 'shorting' out the battery; causing it to discharge AND upsetting the anti-theft system, including the 'starter' circuit. It's possible too your key and/or key fob can be malfunctioning too. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.
Yes it has a battery, two possibilities a rechargeable one, or a 2032. if you have the full black plastic cased fob it is a rechargeable battery. (most likely version)
to replace that will require some deft soldering skills. may writes ups available on multiple Land rover message boards
Was it running before changing FP? Have you tested fuel pressure? Have you checked for spark at plugs and injector pulse with a noid light? Remember, brand new parts are sometimes bad too.
Why do you want to change the starter? Check out the earth strap before doing anything expensive. Then get a hammer and tap around the solenoid (the small cylinder fixed to to the starter) because rust can cause failure) and that may work for some time. If you must change the starter, DISCONNECT the battery first. Then LABEL the electrical leads and note where each is attached to the starter and solenoid. The starter requires only two bolts to be removed and the whole unit slides forwards out of the housing. Replace exactly the same way.
This sounds like a non FOB issue, if the internal FOB battery is dead it will still start and run the truck just not unlock the doors/hatch. Check your battery and connections.
