I got a new car and my Jaguar had been sitting around for a couple months. I turned it on and the check engine light and the ABS lights were both on. When I checked the error messages and got the following:

C1175 (twice?)
P1111
P1647

I need to figure out if I can get this fixed up to sell it or if I should just sell it for parts.

 

Did you charge the battery before starting the car , as these codes and lights can be triggered by starting with a low or faulty battery ,
I'd start with charging the battery and having it load tested .
Clear the codes and see if thay re appear .
Otherwise you may need an ABS wheel speed sensor
and an o2 sensor .
P.s p1111 is a good code to have it just means the monitors have completed there checks and are all ok so ignore that one !

 

+1

In case you have smog/emissions checks don't clear the codes just swap the (front left) O2 sensor and after 3 warm ups the P1647 should clear.

 

Code C1175 points to a faulty left rear wheel speed sensor. I had to replace mine back in February. The OEM Jaguar ones retail for about $212 which is a ridiculous price for what they are (as you will quickly see when you remove yours). I ordered a generic one from SNG Barratt Group for about $56 plus shipping. Be sure to ask for your jaguarforums.com member discount of 10%....

 

As Datsports says, don't do anything else in the way of troubleshooting until you've fully charged your battery.

 

You guys might be talking a bit over my head. I don't know how to do something as simple as charge my battery. As far as I know, having the car running is how that happens.

+1 on the battery...


My Jag can sit for weeks unused and I used to marvel at the random codes and 'Restricted Performance' warning I'd get. It now lives permanently on a CTek battery charger / conditioner and when I need to drive it, well it purrs like the big black cat it should be. ;-)
