Jag XK 2006 hood failure
Hi,
Recently had a battery change in my Jag convertible.
Then the hood wouldn't work.
A couple of garages looked at it, and one's telling me the motor/pump is overheating.
Can I get it fixed or do i need a new one?
Any advice, greatly appreciated.

Good Morning,
I am not sure how replacing the battery would cause the motor/pump to overheat, but I would take it to someone that specializes in convertible tops, or to the dealer.
If the pump is over heating, it would have to be replaced.
There could be a short in it, causing an open circuit, and a drain the battery?
