A red battery symbol on your dash indicates that your charging system detected a failure. Your car might be running and working fine but its probably because your battery is in excellent condition and you are running everything from your battery. Unfortunately, your battery will deplete and cause your car to die even while driving so be very careful and have your local shop check your vehicle for a bad alternator or similar criteria. Try not to drive your vehicle at night or with the A/C on until the problem is corrected.

SOURCE: 2005 jaguar xtype how do i adjust headlights

If I am understanding your post, I believe you do have a levelling
system and it should be near your light switch on the dash. It is
the type of switch that you depress first, it then springs out and
you turn the small knob (just like your instrument panel lights
adjuster next to it.) What you do not have perhaps, if your car is
not fitted with HIDs (high intensity headlamps), is the automatic
levelling system which is a legal requirement when HIDs are fitted
due to the high power of the lights....

if you don't have a self-levelling system then you'll have a manual
system, operated by a knob under the light switch so that you can
adjust to compensate for a heavy load in the rear of the car.

Testimonial: "I did see the little knob on the dash under the headlight switch. i thought it was to dim the dash lights i will check it out and let you know. "

SOURCE: Dashboard Instrument cluster does not work.

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.

Seems you might need the injectors cleaned.

Jaguar uses a SUN cleaning system on the car but it is better if the injectors are removed and sent to a company with an ASNU injector cleaner.

These 'Shower Head' injectors seem to clog easily. Some were made by Lucas and others by DENSO.

I did one with less than 17,000 miles on it last year.

Positive STFT and LTFT numbers indicate a gross reduction in delivered fuel.

Up to 9% STFT acceptable with 0 LTFT..

STFT should toggle from 0% to 7% on a good system.

If LTFT above 5% you need to find the problem.

Most companies charge around $20.00 per injector with new O rings supplied.
.
System is Adaptive and needs a whole tank of fuel to adapt to a steady state.

My 2002 Jaguar xtype want start I turn key ova n everything *** on but the car want start I don't here anything but everything else works as it should

Next to your battery you will see the outer fuse box. Check the main fuse cartridge for the "engine start". Your manual will show you exactyly wich one. This is ussually always the problem. If it is good then its your starter. disconnect the battery and check the leads first for tightness and try it again before replacing it.
