I had a problem similar to that in my 95 xj6. I kept finding my trunk was unlocked or left ajar. Make sure everything is closed and use the key to lock the doors from the drivers side. Do you get a chirp from the security system?


My little one liked to hit the jag on the back and open the trunk. When I unlocked the doors it activated the kill system.

The BLUE relays in that vintage Jaguar were Not very reliable. I replaced alot of relays for dead XJ6 and XJ-S. There are several that are critical like the ECM and fuel pump etc. There are some that are LOAD relays that power major circuits. You might also have a faulty ignition switch so pull the column cowl and back probe the switch IN/OUT circuits. Get an electrical guide so you know what is power and what is earth!!!
