2005 Jaguar S-Type - Page 4 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

RAIN Sensor... turns the wipers on... it's on the interior, attached to the windshield above the rear view mirror bracket.

Im testing all of my fuses with an ohm reader tomorrow I will let you know... Im having the same problem.

fuse for your alarm is located in your kick panel, a box located near the gas pedal. remove the cover and there you can see the fuse for your alarm.

My 2005 S-Type was stuck in reverse but the gear stick was stuck in park. After taking the console apart trying to figure out why the shift lock wouldn't open...three hours later I got under the car and discover that one of the two bolts that held the transmission cable in place was missing...I replaced it and that was all it took.

Sounds like a short circuit make sure your using proper fuses and what not.

what is it doing when you try to start it. have you tried some gas line anti freeze it is only for gas lines

This is normal. Look under the front nearside and you'll see a 3 inch diameter hole out of which the smoke is coming - This is designed to vent the fumes from a diesel 'pre-warmer' which obviously, on cold days, springs into action. It looks awful, but, so I'm told by Jaguar, is the way it's meant to be. I'm only passing on the info I got when I enquired about exactly the same thing so this isn't necessarily the complete answer and you may have other more serious issues, but it put my mind at rest when I was told this.

It might be something in the switch itself wether its a knob or a slider ,behind there is little brushes that tell which ones to open.

The wiper motor has to be replaced, The gears in the motor are slipping.

Check your transmission fluid level - a 'how to' is in the owner's manual.GL,Td

IF IT TURNS OUT TOT BE THE CONTROL PANEL FOR THE A.C. THERE IS A PLACE THAT WILL REBUILD YOUR ORIGINAL PANEL - WITH A LIFETIME WARRANTY- AND A 4 DAY TURN AROUND FOR $99.00.

I am sorry but we do not have wiring diagrams here at fixya. it is copyrighted material.

This sounds like a control module issue, you will have to have the dealer or a shop with the proper scan tool to test the system and see what exactly is causing the problem

As far as your a/c issue, this sounds like a common problem of low refrigerant charge in the a/c system, most of the cars with dual climate control will blow cool air from passenger side and warmer air on drivers side when the refrigerant level gets too low. I would suggest taking it to a repair shop and have the system checked for a leak before you try and have it recharged... and as far as the motion sensor issue, this may be a module that is faulty or a sensor that has failed, either way it will have to be looked at by the dealer or a shop that has a proper scanner to check the sensor and module status... hope this helps

it could be bolted in look for mounting bolts at the base of the seat if not it presses in you'll need to pull up while you push hard in the reverse motion at the base of the seat they snap in place so pull up at the same time as pushing back hard

You must have the dealer scan the system with a special tool and based on what is read with the scanner diagnose the problem.

have it checked out. Could be a sensor on transmission or internal problem.......good luck and keep me posted and please rate my post if this information helps..

Possible Neutral Safety Switch go to bad; generally this device is locates on top transmission (under vehicle).

It's under the car by the left front wheel. turn the steering wheel all the way to the right to give you some access. now lay on the ground and between the rear of the tire and the fender you can see the port. not the easy but you can do it

There are many parts of you A/C-Heater system that can cause the A/C to not cool. It will have to be properly diagnosed to determine the cause.
