2002 Jaguar S-Type - Page 9 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Do you mean 'parking brake fault' This message can sometimes appear with low battery causing the electronic park brake to lose its calibration.
To recalibrate it disconnect your battery and leave for 10 Min's. then reconnect and with the ignition on apply the foot brake and whilst keeping applied switch the parking brake on. then release the foot brake turn ignition off - on and the handbrake fault message should be gone and the parking brake should release as you drive off.
IMPORTANT - make sure you have you radio code as you will need this after a battery disconnect.

hope this helps - good luck

Hi, flashing check engine light in car means a lot of things which can be related to any part of the car. So for you to detect what the exact problem is, you have to take the car to Auto zone for the car to be scanned after which a code will be retrieved and interpreted to detect what the problem is.
When my 2002 Jaguar x type had the engine light flasing. I took it to Autozone and had the error codes read it said cylinder 5 misfire and something that had to do with the airflow.
With that the problem was easy to fix...
Take care

For 2002 Jaguar S-Type 4.0L SFI DOHC 8cyl the Fuel Filter is located under vehicle, driver side, below engine area, rear of wheelwell, mounted in fuel line.

Hope helps.

check your brake lights/fuses switch at pedal etc the handbook should have a bypass detailed for you

your light will come on and your car will run bad...

If you are really stuck you can remove the shifter cover and you will see the solenoid, at the base of the solenoid is a manual override - press this and you can move the shifter - then do not return it to park until you have fixed the problem ( leave in neutral) Hope this helps - good luck.

mcdevito75 here, If the vibration smooths out when you step on the gas pedal even slightly or increases, then it is mechanically related., Causes could be, Vacumn leakes, the small narrow rubber / plastic hoses that control the emission sensors / devices, Wrong Octane fuel (gas), dirty gas filter or dirty gas itself, a worn engine mount. I would start off with the gas (fuel), at your local auto parts store, Sears, Strauss etc. I would pick up and put in the gas tank a can of dry gas or an associated product to get rid of any water in the gas (fuel) Or at least a can of fuel injector cleaner. The fuel injectors in your engine could be dirty also.

I NEED TO GET A PIC OF A 2000 JAGUAR S-TYPE

Go to autozone or advance auto parts they will scan to see why your engine light is on.Usually free of charge. Write down the codes they give you then let us know what they are. We test we dont guess.

was the bulb made in china?? or did you pay for an original part?

could be a breather hose i suppose or possible oil spill on exhaust sorry never had anything to do with jags

most often the access point is in the trunk. there will be a removable panel.

use an old socket to hammer over the locknut,ruins a socket but no alternative....

an spray can of Brake cleaner will clean it and use some WD40 afterwards to relube the moving parts that are hidden under the console
