Jaguar xk8 air con light flashes then turns off but air con is on

When starting out with a cold engine; if the air con switch is turned on it illuminates. After a few minutes it starts to flash and eventualy turns off. However the aircon seems to be working and functioning correctly.

Is this just a poor connection to the switch LED?

This is most often caused by a slightly low charge of refridgerent, as the engine heats the system the gas expands and the light goes out.

How do I reset the inertia switch on a 1999 jaguar xk8

I'm having a similar issue to the one described in this post:

http://www.2carpros.com/questions/jaguar-xj8-1998-jaguar-xj8-car-turns-over-then-stalls

However, I can not find an inertia switch. I have a 1998 Jaguar XK8 convertible. Does being a convertible make a difference in this switch's location?
I removed the passenger kick panel and also checked in the fuse box door on the dash at the passenger side. Thank you.

My xj8 Jaguar crank up and sets right back off what all could be wrong

Security is set. Could be one problem. Fuel system can do this, but rarely. Takes a scanner to see where to look first.

I have repaired an accident damaged xk8, both airbags went off, know when i turn over the engine the ecu is saying none genuine parts to suspension & warning lights on dashboard.. how do i reset the e

I'm not 100% sure on Jags, but on a domestic vehicle you have to clear the code with a scan tool. You should be able to call any Jaguar service center and get a quick answer.

Jaguar xk8 auto, won't come out of park

your brake switch, the one that activates rear brake lights has probably failed. Press brakes, have someone see if brake lights turn on, if no then it is a brake light switch problem.
