Does a 95 XJS V12 have an OBDI or II socket, if so where?
Thanks JIM

The thread addresses a 6 cylinder, but I can't imagine the OBD port being in a different position on a V12 car.

 

The V12 has an obd port but it is not OBD2 compliant. The codes from obd port are jag specific and not industry standard. That did not start till 1997.
What are you looking for ?

 

The V12 OBDI port is in the boot just in front of right hand rear light cluster behind trim. It's only readable with a Jaguar PDU system (AFAIK)

Thank you PTJS1,,, that is exactly what I needed to know.

On my 95 V12 6L the obd1 port, that looks like an obdII port is just behind the hood latch on the LHS in the driver's footwell.

 

OBDII - On-Board Diagnostic's System - Does My Car Have OBD-II? The Connector and Communications.

everything 1996 and newer is obdII jaguar ag16 listed fully obdII in 95 v12 xjs listed as obdII in 95 but not fully compliant

 

Ezrider & dsetter,

Tks for correcting me. I went and checked the last (and only) RHD XJS 6 litre convertible today and it does indeed have an OBDII shaped port in the passenger footwell. I don't know how compliant it is to OBDII protocol standards so will check that at the weekend.

Tks again

Paul

 

the main reason for wanting this is my kitty was running fine, then (don't all the stories start this way) one day after a long drive including Interstate speeds 80+, off highway for a bit and a shut down for an hour, cool day mind you... I started it up (fine) but when I touched the accelerator it did not respond, backed off to just a touch and was able to ease it up to driving speeds any speed.. with rpm's it responded somewhat hesitantly but did eventually get up to speed. after this it starts fine as always, runs normal, but when warms up begins to act up.


OK, checking temp sensors, and find the ECTS eng coolant temp sensor located in the water channel where one of the thermostats lives. It's showing short,, replaced with a variable pot while new one arrives) ,and it runs but misses frequently., still has smell, like before when missing, "stumbles" as someone has said which is pretty good description.
Thanks JIM
