Post BPU issue

I believe along with my mechanic think we have a bad BPU in my 97 x300 xj6 US model.. there are some on Ebay but what I don't know is if a module from a UK or other country car will work in a US car.
If I knew how to program the thing I'd give it a try but have no docs on any of that... I've been told to look for a model sheet or some such in the trunk but my car does not have any spec sheet in the trunk.

Any help would be appreciated although I realize this is pretty obscure..

Thanks,
Don Dalfonzo

Welcome to the forums Don,

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X300 forum. Members here with the same model will be able to help.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

I don't think you are going to be that lucky. JEPC (Jaguar Electronic Parts Catalogue) shows P/N LNA2500BB007 for USA specification vehicles and LNA2500BB010 for UK specification.





I've only expanded those two listings in the above screenshot. Almost every other country has a market-specific module listed.

Default BPU issue

Thank you for your reply. It pretty much confirms what I thought. I may have to try one of the AA models as I haven't found a BB model from a US Car. Either that or find some info on programming the one I've got. Spent 30 years in IT and it looks like a standard 25 pin serial interface (haven't counted the pins yet)....
