Default New member from Northern Virginia

Hey all,

New member here in Northern Virginia. Had an XJ8 in the family for years running flawlessly until recently. I've worked in the motorsports industry for a long time so I tend to do most of my own work on the daily drivers when I can't bribe a friend to do it.
My wife and I had 2 XJs for a little while until she just sold hers a week ago. My 2003 sat for months while I drove other vehicles and of course that started the first trip down a long road of issues this car has ever had.
Anyway, in my life's battle of never being defeated by a car I'm gonna head to the proper section here and see what others can point me to on a no start vehicle with 12 codes....

A hearty welcome from a fellow Virginian! I'm sure you'll find all the help and advice you need to get your XJ in tip top shape!

Thank you all for the welcome party. After a little searching tonight I found the culprit. Bad coil and popped ignition fuse. New set of coils on their way and live to ride another day!

Welcome to the forum Fabworkz,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the X308 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

You can also visit the US Mid Atlantic Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-mid-atlantic-65/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
