Thanks, I tried it several times, even with the door open and closed, didn't make any difference, never got the second chirp.

Andy,
You should try to program the remote a few times, I had the same issue. After the first chirp did you press the lock on the remote?

key fob programming
1996-06 XK8/R cars:
1. Insert ignition key into the ignition switch barrel, but do not turn it..
2. Hold the turn signal switch stalk in the "flash to pass" postion and turn the ignition on with the key (while holding the turn signal switch in "flash to pass").
3. Then repeatedly flash the lights with the turn signal stalk until a confirmation chirp is heard (usually five or six flashes).
4. After hearing the chirp, depress the button on the remote transmitter being programmed. If the remote was accepted, there will be another confirmation chirp.
5. Turn off the ignition and test the remote.
The above is from tech tips under the Jaguar heading on the Coventry West website. Other model remote programing instructions are listed also.
