Ok here is whats going on

I charged battery and trunk came open in rain storm

Iv got CATS error yellow lite

Iv got no blinking parking lite

Iv got no S mode lite working on shifter

only electrical thing not working is gas cap opener

I took cats box apart no water in it clean no burnt caps or anything , dried out back of car no corrosion on connector's

Iv checked switches on Brake pedal (working passing +)
took apart shifter I have + volts to solenoid and no Negative ground when pressing brake etc

I cant find any fuses blown in whole car.
Checked shock wire connectors nothing
I can move manually solenoid and it will shift no problem


Whats nxt ? thanks in advance

 

Take the belly pan off and look for two small bolts on the side of the shifter. They get loose and fall out then the car no go...

Plenty of post on this site about the problem. Very common.
================================================== ===========
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, and
Torque is how far you take the wall with you

 

He said the trunk opened in a rainstorm, so he probably has water in the trunk well. Water ingress can affect a number of the electronic modules located in that area....

 

How much water was in the boot because you will have to get it dried out completely. The easiest way is too get rid as much of the water as possible would be to put a bag of rice in the boot and let it the water out.

 

Yes its all dried out its been sitting for a month . nothing wrong with bolts on bottom . it will shift fine if I move solenoid back with screwdriver .
Does anyone know what relay controls Brake pedal park lock it has to be in back also The gas cap dosnt work unless you do it manual with cable pull.

 

Are your brake lights working ?

 

Yes brake lites working and yes both switches on brake pedal are working passing power turning off and on when pressed

 

did you remove the battery. If so have you reset the car. see this thread
Resets Required after Flat Battery or Changing Battery in a Jaguar

 

yes Did reset already.

 

You will need it completely dried out and may then have some permanently damaged items which you'll need to replace, sadly.

Pray it's not the fusebox!

 

Have you read the codes. They might push you in the right direction and show what to check in the JTIS.

 

+1

the modules in the rear need a jag-type tool

 

There are no codes .....today I found the gas cap relay and fixed that so gas cap works ,
I read somewhere there is supposed to be clicking in back when pressing brake pedal can someone tell me what relay this is please I have no clicking on relay in trunk when pressing brake ...
also today gave the solenoid a negative wire and it does work like its supposed to . i have lost my shop disc and dont know were the ground come from or what relay in rear is for brakes ????

 

If you go here you can download a copy of the JTIS because without knowing the date of manufacture of your car. It is difficult to answer your questions.

just follow Jim's instructions and then you will be able to find out for yourself.

 

If you didn't use a jag-type tool you have no idea what codes you have

edit: inserted specific quote

 

That is why I showed him that thread so that he can get the program and the tool.

 

It looks more about JTIS than IDS / WDS or the like, but I've clarified.

 

Mutual misunderstanding,
If you go to this thread you can get a copy of SDD program v1.30. This version is clean of viruses, it has been found that the version that comes with the mongoose from China has one.


mongoose v130.

 

Note: you also need to buy a Mongoose or suitable (J2534) device!

 

So I replaced the suspension module in trunk with a used one and the suspension lite has gone out... Now I need the interlock relay were is it? so your saying my scan tool is not pulling jaguar codes ? the files listed will not install in my laptop period. I replaced the rear backup sensor module and no go no change all tho original module had signs of water in it.

Im ready to shoot this car !
