Default The Prince of Darkness - electrical question

hello everyone,

my 1996 XJR with the inline 6 supercharged seems to have a few intermittent electrical problems.

I have intermittent wipers (as in occasionally they just don't work), intermittent heat and so on.

is there anyone problem here or is it a few, my traction control light in my ABS light on all so I thought maybe there might be a common problem we're all these things come on as a result of one relay or something like that?

Traction control light and ABS light often come on because battery is low. These cars are extremely sensitive to slightly low battery output. Check that first. After that, intermittent faults are most commonly because of ground problems. Check and clean as many ground connections as you can find!!
