Welcome to the forum r111ynf,

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X-Type forum. Members here with the same model will be able to help.

Please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some info about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see. In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.

Graham

I have attached a diagram of the fuse boxes.
The central fuse box is the under dash box in your photo.
The Power distribution fuse box is under the bonnet next to the battery.
Fuse 16 and 17 are for the front lighting in the Power distribution box.
Fuse 63 and 64 are for the rear lighting in the Central fuse box.
The hazards are a switch to the General Electronic Control module.
The lock/unlock is also controlled by the general Electronic Control Module.
Relay 6 in the Power distribution box controls the AC. You can swap it with relay 5 to test. Make sure your power washers are working (relay 5) and then swap it with relay 6 and see if they still work. If so relays are good.
Locking/unlocking could be caused by a switch not indicating closed. I would spray lube the door locks and trunk lock and make sure they are working smoothly. Also, check the bonnet closed plunger switch. Any one of them not setting would stop the lock/unlock from working.
The hazard switch may just need exercising a few times to remove corrosion since it seldom is used.
This will get you started until some of the others with far greater electrical experience stop by.

The GEM is a module and as such I don't believe it has a fuse. I don't see one on the wiring diagrams.
You can go to JagRepair.com - Jaguar Repair Information Resource and download the manual with wiring diagrams.

Did you do anything out of the norm before the failure occurred. E.G. wash engine, make a repair etc. It is possible you have a loose or corroded plug.
I would start by cleaning everything associated with the GEM.

There are two main power supplies to the GEM. They are protected by F24, 15A and F25, 15A both in the Engine Compartment Fuse Box.

Do you realise that the GEM is right there above your feet as you drive? There are five multi-wire connectors that plug into it. Maybe you need to get at it and check that all the connectors are properly pushed in and locked!

This deserves a better story. Try these:
+ "The Jag dealer wanted £500, so I kicked it myself!"
+ "Anyone can kick a Jag, but few know where to kick!"
+ "Read JaguarForums.com and learn how to fix your Jag with a single kick!"
Congrats, and thanks for sharing.
