There is no Power Save Function....If the Battery is going Flat.....The Alternator is not Charging.....In this condition You should have a Red Battery warning light on the dash, that is staying on after engine is running.....To test Alternator, try to see if a paperclip will be magnetically held in place on the rear bearing cup at the back of the Alternator....Be careful of the terminals and rotating assy. If no magnetism is present, the Alternator is bad.....Be sure to disconnect Negative Battery Cable before removing the Alternator............

SOURCE: Flat battery

suspect slack fan belt, therefore not charging battery.

Testimonial: "After further testing, it seems the clutch off of the alternator (I have active suspension) has gone, making the alternator over work which caused the wineing. Alternator now burnt out!!!! Both being replaced as I type, will update with an outcome ASAP."

SOURCE: 97 jaguar xjr supercharged had been in storage And tried to cold start. Nothing. Replaced fuel injectors, radiator, starting relay, fuel filter and battery. Still nothing. Would timing chain be the m

There are many possible causes why it won't start, but when it was not used for a long time I would check the fuel line. Only one bubble of air can stop the free flow of fuel.
Or a dried out dirty filter in the line.
Try to suck the fuel up to the fuel pump and check if the pump really delivers fuel.

Why does 03 Jaguar S-type not try to turn-over now when it jump-start fine a few days ago?

Using the key FOB, turn off the alarm/unlock once the jumper cables are attached and then try to start.

Jaguar S-type goes totally dead, no lights, horn, nothing, but comes back to life in seconds or days later. A key relay maybe?

Probably not a relay as some circuits will be hard-wired into the battery circuit.

I once encountered a car behaving just like yours and a very disenchanted owner. Over a period of a couple of months it had been attended by a couple of breakdown services and had been several times to various repairers.

The fault turned out to be a bad connection where the battery terminal had been crimped to the battery cable. It appeared normal but inside, when I cut it open, the wire strands were black and scorched resulting effectively in a random disconnection of the battery. When the car had started it behaved normally but getting it started was another matter entirely.

You need to go to the dealer and get the new relay module located on the left side of the fan assembly there was a jaguar TSB for that problem. I fixed a lot of those when I worked for Jaguar.
