Lock and unlock car
Check pin near filler has retracted otherwise flap will not close

Hi there,

The yellow/orange Engine Check Light is an indicator that your vehicle's computer has detected an abnormality within the engine's electronics or emission system.

Sometimes it can be a one-off abnormality, which eventually rectifies itself within 40 drive cycles.

However, if the Engine light remains lit, then this is an indication of something more concerning (but not necessarily serious).

If it does remain lit when driving, then you should have your local Jaguar service agent scan the computer for "trouble codes", which will quickly identify the component and/or location of the problem.


Hope this helps...


Cheers,

never thought about the cold?? anything from a boot lock playing up to the fuel vapour collection can cause a engine light to come on.It was about this time tah jag started using modules instead of a complete wiring loom so its possible a mobile phone has thrown this light on if it is using modular system

press mode until the clock starts flashing then type in the time

Park brake fault - Normally caused by low battery voltage. Try a reset.
Make sure you have your radio code !
Disconnect negative on battery - leave for 15 minutes then reconnect.
Apply foot brake then apply handbrake switch.
If this does not work you may have a park brake module/pump issue - that means main dealer fault reading visit
Hope this helps
- good luck.

Like most rear wheel drives,crappy.

Most probably you need to replace the window regulator...

Go to Auto Zone and ask the to run a diagnostic with their OBD-11 computer. This may still be a free service. Write down the error code/codes displayed. This should help pinpoint the correct sensor.

I don't know for sure if Jag uses the auto lock feature, as when you move beyond a certain speed it engages the locks for safety. If so there could be an adjustment issue with your cars auto lock feature Just a thought though I had a friend who Ford Taurus did similar thing Yet ot sure how much Ford parts used on Jaguar S Type Good luck To You

Replace the fob battery.

from the abbreviated words ya are using i am gonna assume the door is not being seen as closed to the fem module, so assuming the door is open it will unlock the door to keep ya from locking key in car. does dash show the door is ajar?, if so may need a new door ajar switch or agjusted striker.... any more info on the concern could help you diag, but please use word as apposed to YOUR abbreviations..... may be relocking while driving because the drive away feature of auto locking after the 7mph signal reached

C-clamp, and turn it in slowly to avoid damage to brake parts. Take lid of master cylinder is good idea prior, just to help a little.

give the battery a full charge....un clip the air filter housing and leave it resting in place, put your foot to the floor on the gas pedal and keep cranking til it starts up,dont release the ignition key til it fires up,it will pop and bang and then when it fires up will smoke for a little bit (couple of mins) and then it will be fine.
If that doesnt work you will have to remove all 8 plugs,clean them,pour about 2 teaspoons in each cylinder before replacing plugs then do the same as above.
What happens with these engines is the cylinders get a bit too much fuel in them and it washes the oil away down the bores thus losing comression so it wont start.Instead of starting it up and switching it off briefly,let it run a bit and then give it a little rev before switching off...hope this helps

there is a menu button to the right of the radio volume knob. with the radio on push and hold that button then push it until it says set clock or the clock starts flashing. then adjust clock
