I was checking in the trunk for loose connections, etc, and I noticed that there were these three things that didnt have a home.

Currently my XKR has a Suspension Fault that never goes away and 1 time I saw a Trac Not Available and ASC Not Available (both of those have gone away since yesterday)

Any help is greatly appreciated!

 

The tube looks like it should be the vent for the battery - it is essential that these cars have a battery that is vented to preclude gas building up in the trunk(boot). The plugs are for a transit device whilst the car is en route to the dealer following manufacture - I understand the gizmo in question is removed as part of the PDI to the original owner.

 

+1 on the battery vent tube. Can't see origin of yours in the picture, but there should be one on the back side (closest to front of car) of the battery that is vented out of the trunk. Make sure this is connected. Very dangerous if not.

 

Darn. I was hoping for an answer like, "oh yeah, plug that in an no more problems!" lol.

I'm definitely going to need to replace the battery after all. Is there a certain battery I should be looking for? I want to put in a good quality battery. Any recommendations?

 

They will be the Transit Relay connections. Here's a drawing of the Transit Relay:



We owners never see it because it's discarded during the Dealer PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection) and the leads are tucked out of sight behind the trim.
