Buy a haynes repair book for that model at parts

If the engine will not crank over then check the battery, cables and starter relay. If it cranks then spray a little starter fluid into the throttle body. If it starts then you have a fuel problem. If not a problem in the ignition system.

I have the same problem on my XK8 2005....did you find a solution?

Many cars of that period could be reset by some ignition key sequence.
Try switching from the off position to the on (not start) several times within 15-30 seconds.
It won't hurt anything and might turn off the light.
If the problem is still present that caused the light to go on the first time, it will likely come on again after you start the engine.

I hope the reason for that alarm light has been since corrected.

Some cars needed to have the battery disconnected for several minutes to cancel the memory contents.
Newer cars will not likely respnd to that since flash memory is now common which retains the error code even without power.

check your fuses and module that control those function on the vehicle

Lock your doors with key and hold until the alarm activates, then unluck car and start

The 1995 Jaguar XJ6 is OBDII compliant. You can read engine codes using an aftermarket code reader. You may have to call it a 1996 in order for the tool to read the codes. What you can not read without Jaguar's own reader is the ABS codes. Good luck!

Reset yes, just lock and unlock the driver door with the key. Turned off no.

sounds like the leveling sensor is defaulting...this car is under warranty and should be returned to the dealer to address the issue....my only question is is this car showing a fault code on the dash?Normally when their is suspension failure it will show a code...even if you have a malfunction in the shock which will read low pressure in the suspension holding tank the car will throw a code...so I would take it back to the dealer...

You have 2 faults here, the first is your engine code: Three possible causes of the P0328 are: 1. Poor sensor contact with cylinder block 2. KS to ECM sense circuit: high resistance, open circuit, short circuit to high voltage 3. KS failure as for the rear running light it would either be a bulb or connection, double check these conditions.

This should help:

no where have a dealer or an authorized locksmith cut new key[s] using vin number and dealer thru your vin has key codes

Use the Owners ignition key instead of the Valet key.

We had a similar problem with a 2008 right hand drive 407;ST HDI Touring. Suddenly the remote would not lock the doors and whenever you drove over 20kph then back under it would keep trying to lock itself. Anyhow after a thorough reading of the manual we discovered that the car will only lock if all the doors are closed properly. What we didn't realise is that the glass panel in the boot lid will also open outward like a flap, to allow smaller parcels to be placed in the boot without having to open the larger boot lid. We owned a Mercedes 300TE which didn't have this feature so didn't think to look for it. This was not closed properly. The handle/release must have been knocked when washing the car. Anyhow, once it was firmly shut everything went back to normal. Good as new.

there are 2 large terminal plugs with the wiring for all the instruments that are plugged into the back of that panel. make sure they are snug and in place. You reach in and under but it may easier to "simply" remove the cluster. 4 screws hold it in place accessible form underneath and with a long phillips screwdriver and lighting.

turn the temperature up to the hot to blend the hotter temperature
