I have a 2004 Jag s type w/ 45k miles. Last night I got all the system lights and "transmission fault, parkbrake fault and dsc not available." Got home, turned it off, restarted after 1 minute, restarted and now says restricted performance. Any ideas/suggestions?

First thing to do is get the battery checked and replaced if necessary. If the problem continues, it will be necessary to have a pro-shop check the fault codes (go to a Jag specialst, not a dealer)

most likely the ran it up on the lift and that triggers all these. you should be able to bring it any local garage and they should clear it.

If the system won't test 1st look a blown fuse, if the fuses are ok you may be the rare case of a burned out Powertrain Control Module (PCM), but before you replace that very expensive module make sure the system not self testing is verified with another tester/code reader/scanner, I would buy one, they are easy to use the test plug is under the steering column dash panel, This is called the OBD data link connector.

SOURCE: jaguar s-type restricted performance

I had the same problem. Restricted performance and running rough at 3000 RPM. I have an OBDII code reader and found that the problem was in the air mass flow sensor, which is just after the air filter. I pulled this out and found it was dirty and had butterfly wings in it. The last shop where I had the oil changed replaced the filter for me but put in the wrong size. Close but no cigar. Bought some *** Flow Sensor cleaner at auto store and fixed the problem. Get an OBDII reader with the ability to erase the codes. Comes in real handy.

I have a 2003 S-type jaguar that goes into a limp mode and stops running then the engine system fault shows ,the parkbrake fault and DSC not available also shows. Diagnostic showed codes PO121,P1582??

code p 0121 is associated with the throttle position sensor and accelerator position sensor
causes are from cable adjustment --throttle position and accelerator position sensors
code p0533 refers to ac refrigerant pressure sensor--high input== causes --ac pressure too high (cooling fault -condenser fan not running at radiator-- too much gas --pressure sensor
p 0105 refers to map sensor / barometric pressure sensor --circuit malfunction===causes wiring--- map sensor --baro sensor ECM
code p0566 refers to cruise control master switch== causes --control switch , ---ECM
code p1582 refers to electronic throttle monitor data available which will be associated with the p 0121 code and faults

Jaguar "handbrake failure"on S type automatic 3ltr

the 3 main issues with jag electronic park brake faults are 1st the sliders in the rear caliper frames sieze up which tells the park brake module that the travel is excessive and turns it off 2nd the wiring to the park brake motor chaffes on the rear subrame. 3rd the park brake motor fails. try a battery reset by disconnect the -v battery terminal for a couple of mins. reconnect and work parkbrake on/off to recalibrate, if it still comes on parkbrake failure then try the other poss faults, hope this helps

Cruise not available fault light on 2004 jaguar s type 3.0 v 6

What is the fault code? If you don't know you need to have it tested with a scanner that reads all JAG codes, that means the dealer.

Whenever this warning light or any other stays on in the dash it is indicating that the systems control module (or the system sensor in the case of lights like low oil pressure, door open indicators etc.) has detected a fault, it then disables the system (this applies to ABS,TCS, TCM, SRS and BCM faults and others) as long as the light is on. You must now have the dealer hook up a special electronic diagnostic tool and "scan" the system for the fault code that is stored for the problem(s)

Suddenly entered 'limp home' mode. ENGINE SYSTEM FAULT, DSC NOT AVAILABLE, PARKBRAKE FAULT messages. Reset with ignition of-on, then they all came back after 5 minnutes.

Hi,

The limp mode is activated when your transmission fluid is overheating.

British cars have their transmission with that safety system.

Check the fuse "transmission", in your fuse box, it might have been blown already.

You coud go to your nearest dealer to check on that and scan your computer for errors.

Hope that helps you out!

Thanks for using Fixya!

Excessive wear on 1997 s type jags rear brakes

Unfortunatly this is normal, nothing can be done about it. Get pads checked every 15,000 miles to save discs.

Electric parking brake shows warning when operated

when you replaced the pads did you make sure that the sliders were free if they are partially siezed it gives the the signal to the parkbrake module that the movement is excesive , but also at your model/year there was a prob with the parkbrake motor going bad or the wiring to it chaffed on the rear subframe try to get the fault codes out of the parkbrake module using a obd2 code reader that may have the clue to recalibrate the parkbrake disconnect the battery for 10 mins reconnect apply footbrake with ign. on and work parkbrake on/off 3or4 times
