OMG....that other forum sucks in format layout. Made me want to give up reading.....lol.

FC26-20....the blue/white wire, is used from IPK to audio unit for speed signal. The fact that speed signal is used from ABS module is on the CAN network, I would start by looking at that wire first. If IPK sees an open circuit on that wire, it is possible, theoretically that it would cause those faults as it cannot determine wheel speed and therefore no transmission selection...again based on speed.
This is just a theory.....and the fact that he seems to have left all the other wires in connector. I am wondering however, did he cut the wires and then leave them exposed...I know he connected to the audio unit (new one), but where he disconnected from connector that would have plugged into old audio unit, but did he cut it, thinking that it wouldnt be powered up so no problem and it is now touching metal behind radio? I think the second theory is most likely. This also means, disconnecting the radio will probably leave that touching metal and problem will still occur. I don't think his pack is the problem.

_g,

I meant the serial communications going between the two of you guys... I'm missing out on alot of the secret handshakes, or I need a L'il Orphan Andy Ovaltine decoder ring.

FJT,

That's why I made him triple-dog swear that the speed signal wire was not connected or shorted to ground, that was the first thought. But I didn't think having it open circuit would make a difference. Sucks not having the car, I'd be learning alot more.

JTO.....just a theory remember.....lol. We dont have the car either. At least we all on the same page. I would be willing to bet there was nothing wrong with his first IPK.

Genius....We have a couple of test cables...lol. If you look around the PDIs hard enough, you find some of them have two cables in there.

Also, door lock covers, extra wood, nav dvds, even had an extra glove box jaguar sense thing.....on the wood. I wonder if there is an XF being delivered with the wood above the dash missing.....lol
