How To Update JLR Software

If your vehicle displays a software update notification but fails to install the update, this is likely due to the Ghost immobiliser preventing installation. The Ghost system may interpret the update as a potential hacking attempt.

Please note: You do not need to have the Ghost removed. Simply place the Ghost into service mode and follow the steps below:

  • Do not press the brakes.
  • Press Start.
  • Enter Ghost Disarm Code.
  • Wait For Double Main Beam Flash.
  • Pull Up The Front Left Window Five Times.
  • Wait For The Five Flashes Of The Main Beam For Confirmation.
  • Lock Car For 20 Minutes To Allow All The Vehicles Computers To Go To Sleep.
  • Unlock Car After 20 Minutes.
  • Press Brake Pedal.
  • Press Start Button And Car Will Start.
  • Follow Software Update Instructions On Screen.
