Hi Guys, Newbie here, My Father recently bought a 2010 XF 3.0D Premium Luxury on auction, the car had a minor ding to be honest and then obviously the over sensitive pop up hood deployed also.

Now we are in the process of repairing the car but we are having a strange problem with it.... The centre console seems to be dead, the knob does not rise, the start button does not pulsate the red light and none of the other lights on the cente piece works either. but strangely enough though, the park brake switch works and the start button works but like i said, no lights even. ive already checked F26 fuse in the engine bay (think thats the one for that whole thing) i also checked the plug and tried to scan it with my tool but it does not even communicate with the gear selector module, so can anybody tell me if there is a different fuse or relay to check on these cars? i mean i had to work in order to have a crash, i can see it breaking on its own while parked

All other instruments work, the only thing not working is the whole centre piece next to the cupholders.

If anybody can help i would appreciate it so much! thanks in advance

 

If anybody is wondering, i also tried the hold brake pedal and pull gear up paddle trick for 15 seconds also, still dead, didnt work

 

Can you select the gears? The shifter knob should rotate and select gears even if the motor that raises and lowers it is dead.

 

Nope still dead, does not budge...
