In the 1997 Jaguar XJ6, the valet switch is typically located in the glove compartment. This switch is used to disable certain features of the vehicle, such as the trunk release and the alarm system, when the car is being parked by a valet. To access it, simply open the glove compartment and look for a small toggle or button. Always refer to the owner's manual for precise information regarding its location and use.

I hit the valet swtch in my 1995 xj6 when cleaning, The boot will open via the switch on the dash and or with my key, but when using the fob to open the car, all is fine but the boot has to be done via key as it dont via central looking.
If the key won't open the trunk of a 1997 Jaguar XJ6 but the electrics are functioning, you can try using the valet switch inside the glove compartment to release the trunk latch. Alternatively, you can access the trunk through the rear seats by folding them down, which may allow you to reach the trunk release mechanism directly. If these methods don't work, consider consulting a professional locksmith or a Jaguar specialist for assistance.
