ignition system is the problem. need to check or replace igniter(ignition coil).

battery drain problems are time consuming to find and resolve. The Jag has a lot going on with the key on and with the key off. I would start by placing a meter on the battery and with the key off start pulling unswitched circuit fuses to see which one or more are putting an abnormal drain on the battery. Common causes are non factory alarm systems and other non factory installed accessories.

same car as mine ,my sunday car -right if it turns over then pull the centre lead out of the distributor and hold it 2mm away from bodywork and get someone to crank engine and se if their is no spark .if no spart then its either the crank sensor of the ignition module ,to save money remove the crank sensor its on the front pulley and held on with a 10mm headed bolt ,disconnect the wiring connection then put a meter across the two wires and set it to teh lowest setting on muilliamps ,then move a spanner across the head quickly and the meter should move if it does replace the module its under the coil ,if it doesnt move then replace the sensor which from a dealer is 60 euros and about 20 from a auto factor if they list it in their catalogue

try locking vehicle with remote then unlock it with remote,it might be the security needs to be reset.if that doesnt work look at the inertia switch
