Hello everybody. I just signed up here. Im from Japan, I have a car related business mainly japanese domestic vehicles.
I NEED HELP! I bought this front accidented Jaguar XE Prestige from and Im trying to repair it. I have got almost everything I have wanted but there is one confusion.
I need the bumper harness for this car but I am not sure which harness does it need because the original harness was not attached to the car. I dont know if this car has front parking sensors or not.
I called my local dealership and they said there are two part numbers that come for this vehicle one is T4N5660 and other is T4N5669. One is with Park side guard and one is without Park side guard (I dont know what that is) . And I do not know which part number one fits my vehicle or if it has park side guard or not. I just need the correct item and correct parking sensors.
And on the dash it says "Pedestrian System Check"

For reference Im attaching some pictures of open connectors on my car, please anyone let me know which harness (part number) and what do I need to complete the front bumper. Thanks!


This is the passanger side (left side) and I have two open connectors here coming from behind headlamp.

This is the driver's side (right hand) and I have two open connectors in here. One big one is I believe for head light and I dont know which one is the other one. And the little one on the right already has some sensor attached to it.

And theres one hose coming from washer tank which I think goes to the headlight washer fluid nozzle which I also dont have.

PLEASE GUYS LET ME KNOW WHICH HARNESS AND WHICH SENSORS DO I NEED TO COMPLETE IT AND GET RID OF THE ERROR. THANKSSS IN ADVANCEE!

 

A dealer can look up the "build sheet" in TOPIX using the VIN which can answer questions like whether it has front parking sensors, which might help you or the dealer figure out which harness you need. Parking sensors have become such a cheap part that I'd be surprised if they didn't all have them, I test drove a few XEs before I found mine and I don't remember any not having them.

​​​​​The build sheet shows all the options the car actually was built with, it might be useful for you.

どこにいますか？

 

Thanksss a lot for quick responseeee! And im surprised with that japanese, did you translate it?
私は日本の埼玉県にいます。haha

And I tried to convince the dealership to find it but they say we can't know more than these two part numbers. Apparently, the software they using tells em to check the part number on the original harness before ordering. Dealerships in UK are probably fast with this stuff but here in Japan, they dont do anything, and parts are very expensive when it comes to foreign vehicles. Should I just get any harness with sensors? Some cars have 4 sensors at front, some have 6... i dont understand

 

ともだちもさいたまにいます！はたしは5ねんにほんにすんでいました ^-^ My Japanese is rusty though as I left in 2016, and I can't read or write kanji! I'm coming back this year, maybe to buy a house and stay permanently... maybe to set up a business... but mostly to go skiing!

Some guys on here have access to TOPIX and might be able to help you, you can also pay for it yourself and download the build sheet for your car. It's really expensive long-term, but you can get a short subscription like two or three hours for about $20 / 二千円 (I let my phone's keyboard do that kanji for me 😂 ).

I looked at my build sheet and it doesn't have "Park side guards" listed but it does say "SIDE PARK FLANK GUARDS" which might be the same thing. If that is the only difference between the two harnesses, then I think finding your build sheet might help you.

It's bed time here in Australia, but if you post your vehicle's VIN (or send it to me in a private message), tomorrow I'll ask a dealer here if they can look up the build sheet for you

 

おー！！すごい！！！にほんごはじょうずです😁😁😁
Your japanese is really good and 5 years is a long time.
I have been here pretty much my whole life minus first 9 years. 😁
I didnt expect anybody speaking japanese here haha.
And certainly didnt expect anybody being kind enough to ask the dealership for me. And def come to Japan and if you like skiing, try Hakuba in Nagano city, you will love it.
I will try to check TOPIX. I have never heard of it before. If its 20 dollars then its a great deal. And I will also send you a personal msg with my VIN, whenever you have free time kindly please check with dealer. I just want to know which part number harness and sensors I need to complete the front bumper and fit it.
Thanks for being so kind (: ありがとうございます！

 

Thank you! My japanese is only OK... I can speak fluently about snow, food, and beer but that's about it, and when I read and write I feel very much like a junior school kid because I'm very slow can only use hiragana and katakana 😂 The five years I spent in Japan were all about skiing - I worked as a ski field photographer and spent two seasons in Niseko, one travelling from resort to resort, and two more in Aizuwakamatsu in fukushima ken. I did a road trip to Hakuba from Aizu in my last season in 2015/16, it was awesome but I think I like hokkaido as a long-term place to live... I HATE hot weather so I want to be as far north as possible, and Sapporo is a really fun city plus hokkaido is really beautiful. I also really like Aomori but the mountains there are small so the skiing is a little bit boring. I think I'll end up living somewhere between Sapporo or Hakodate so I can go north for mountains, or south if I want to visit honshu.

You might not be able to get into TOPIX as a regular person anymore... I just tried to log into my account and it wouldn't work, so I tried to create a new account and I got an email asking for proof that I've done nationally-recognised training to safely disconnect an EV battery and a police check! I didn't need either of those things when I registered a couple of years ago. I've emailed them to try and get my old account working. If you want to try yourself, the link is https://topix.jlrext.com/

I'll be happy to help you if I can!
