Try this: Standing outside of the car and using your remote, press and hold both the lock and unlock buttons for at least 4 seconds... release after seeing the parking lights flash. Now, get inside the vehicle start it then see if your problem is fixed. Hope it helps.

Possibly fuel pump.

The error codes P0251, P025B, and P025C indicate an issue with the fuel system. The P0251 code suggests that there is a problem with the fuel injection pump, while the P025B and P025C codes indicate issues with the fuel pump module. Given that the car is not firing up consistently, it's likely that the fuel system is not delivering enough fuel to the engine. This can cause the car to go into limp mode and eventually cut off. The P2463 and P246B codes are related to the diesel particulate filter (DPF) system, and the B1412 and B100D codes indicate issues with the climate control system and passenger airbag. Based on the symptoms you described, it's possible that the fuel system issue is causing the other error codes to appear as well. It's recommended to take the car to a qualified mechanic or a Jaguar dealer to have it diagnosed properly. They will be able to use a diagnostic scanner to read the error codes and perform further tests to determine the root cause of the issue.

what in the world is a starting inhibitor? why not post a problem first, an end goal? what is failing or tell a goal . my wild wild guess is , a car alarm that blocks the stater motor ? that is a super old car. and will have vast $$$ problems is this an upgrade question? we sell no car parts here so there is no COST we only do free words in a text box here. 100% free the costs of all things are not the same on earth. so use google + buy to see those prices no goal or problem told. just nebular, starting inhibitor if need and alarm on the car (and blocks cranking) ask a shop in your town for help and or advice. in some towns USA there is a store called Car Toys I like that name but every town as place to install alarms. any major sized town.
