Hello. It seems your Jaguar's door jamb switch is malfunctioning/defective. Door jamb switches make/break power to the interior lamps AND the 'information' panel in the instrument cluster. It's possible you got the wrong wires. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

There are Valet keys (often with a green knob) that will
only unlock the front doors and the ignition but not the
glove box nor boot/trunk.

When either the front door locks or the console button is
pressed, all the doors should lock. Likewise, when either
front door is unlocked, all the doors fuel filler lid and if
selected, the boot will also unlock.

Boot lock has three positions. Unlocked to the left,
automatic with the doors in the center, always locked to the
right. Simply remove the key in what ever position you desire.

The locks can get confused and not work correctly. Simply
sit in the car and manually lock all the doors. That will
usually get the locking module sane again.

Hello. It seems either a headlamp relay is at fault and/or your headlamp switch is set to 'manual'. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

Hello. Yes, your Jaguar has speed sensitive steering 'coupled' to its 'vehicle speed'. The faster your vehicle goes = less 'power steering'; the slower your vehicle travels = more 'power steering'. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

Hello. It seems there is an 'inoperable' fuel injector for #3 cylinder. That fuel injector could be 'clogged' or 'dirty'; yet not sending a trouble code to the ECM. Also, it's possible #3 cylinder has a loss of 'compression'. This, too, will cause a 'misfire'. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

test alternator and battery --if low voltage to the tcm will mess it up

I had the same problem! All you do is call your closest Jaguar dealer and give them the serial # that is under the radio(so you have to remove the radio) they did it over the phone for me and they will give you the code, it's usually gonna be a 1- 6 combo cause thats the numbers for programming if you notice.

any part driven by the drive belt can do this

recheck that wires are seated correctly and wires are not defective --

Best thing to do is to have the vehicle scanned for codes. There may be a code pending. Many thins could have caused that to happen. Lets see what the ECU says.

If you ask at a bodywork repair shop, they will tell you what is required by name. Try not to buy Jaguar parts as they are grosly overpriced. They are the same as the Ford parts.

Look in the handbook. https://www.manualsdir.com/manuals/132858/jaguar-s-type.html?download
