- The complexity of the electronics involved with the anti - theft, of which the key programming is a part, and the multiplexed communication network which are connected to it preclude the use of workshop general electrical test equipment. Therefore, reference should be made to the Jaguar Approved Diagnostic System for detailed instructions on key programming. The Jaguar approved diagnostic system systematically tests and analyses all functions and the various systems affected by it. All new keys must be programmed using IDS. When using IDS to program new key(s), the lost or obsolete key(s) will cease to function.
