Anyone know of one of the cheap sub-$100 OBD scanners that will program a key?

I have no idea. The Foxwell being able to do this for <$200 was news to me. It would have to be a tool with JLR-specific software (similar to Foxwell/Schwaben). No generic OBD-2 reader will have capability to clone keys.Anyone know of one of the cheap sub-$100 OBD scanners that will program a key?

Makes me wonder what else Foxwell can (or can't) do vs the ±$500 GAP IID tool, which is what I have.
Glad you got the eBay fob working. Remember that if the fob battery dies, the "emergency" starting function described in the owner's manual will not work. You MUST have a good fob battery for the reprogrammed eBay key.
For the metal door key, you can buy them from the dealer pre-cut for your VIN. These are sold separately from the fob. The metal key is part number LR012408, my dealer charged $70 for it two years ago. Fit perfectly in the door tumbler. If the used eBay fob included a metal key, either mark it so you know it doesn't fit, or toss it (preferably after getting a replacement that fits your truck).
I checked out the Foxwell on Amazon and there's one review that says it will do it, one that says it won't. All the references in the Q&A say it doesn't. I don't know if people are misinformed or it's a subtle difference between the Foxwell and Schwaben perhaps.
Someone in the support section of the Foxwell site said they were unable to pair. Clearly the video posted shows the Schwaben doing it successfully. Has anyone successfully done it with the Foxwell?
I bought the Land Rover software for the scanner I am currently using, haven't plugged it in to the Rover yet, but for my BMW it had tons of options.
Says I’m running v9.73 of the Land Rover and v9.60 of the OSWhat software version are you running? I don’t have the same menu items on my Foxwell NT510
