If the MIL is on, post the DTCs here.

Do you hear the fuel pump running when turning the ignition to on?

I have posted on the tech section with details of the fault. Yes everything is working including the fuel pump but voltage is reading low even though the battery is new and fully charged.

Welcome to the forum Steve,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR 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.

Please remember to 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
