Welcome to the Forums.

The members in the XK8 (X100) Tech Section will have the answers for that.

Good luck.

Welcome to the forum Robin,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

If the car was garaged for the Winter without being on a battery tender, I'm suprised that's the only fault. These vehicles are very sensitive to battery condition and will throw all kinds of weird electrical faults if it is partially discharged or failing.

Follow this link
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk8-xkr-x100-17/ to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the UK & Eire Region forum by following this link
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/uk-eire-68/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
