This video demonstrates the Lock50 JLR Key Tool (version 1.0.8) for creating backup copies of Jaguar/Land Rover car keys directly, without further vehicle programming. The process involves reading an existing key and copying its data, including a changed ID and new crypto, to a Lock50 clonable key in seconds. The resulting key supports remote, keyless, and emergency start functions, offering a quick and efficient solution for JLR key duplication.

Two ways to copy a key
You can clone an existing working key straight to a new blank (key-to-key), or build a copy from an MCU dump read from the module. Both produce a functional key you keep as a spare.
Why keep a copy
A pre-made backup key means a lost-key situation is a quick swap rather than a full all-keys-lost job, saving time and cost for owners and fleets.
Part of the wider toolkit
Key copying sits alongside spare-key adding, all-keys-lost and locked-RFA programming in the Lock50 HW04 range.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Lock50 copy a JLR key without programming the car?
Yes. This demo copies the key directly or from an MCU dump, producing a working backup with no additional vehicle programming.
What is an MCU dump?
It is the data read from the key/module microcontroller, which the tool uses to recreate an identical working key.
Is a copied key a full working key?
Yes, the copy functions as a genuine spare for locking, unlocking and starting the vehicle.
